A "simple" one layer card can be exhausting!
I don't want to admit HOW MANY TRIES IT TOOK
to finish this.
Inky fingers and not enough pressure on the stamp made it harder than it had to be.
I had fun anyway. ;)
I stamped the butterfly twice. Since I didn't re-ink, the second one came out lighter.
I masked each butterfly and stamped the background.
Challenges that inspired me:
~Just Add Ink 84 Colour Challenge (white plus one other colour)
(I chose green ink to get as close as I could to the color in this picture. I really liked the clean/graphic design and tried to mirror that in my card.)
I appreciate you stopping by today. ;)

I can imagine a one layer card is exhausting Marlena! I don't think I've ever made one to be honest. You've done a great job. Love the stamping of the butterflies. Glad you could play along with us at JAI this week.
The finished result is gorgeous Marlena so worth all the effort, Love the colour. Carol x

Lovely card, Sandra
Hey Marlena! Thanks for linking this up to this week's Tuesday Trigger in the Moxie Fab World! I'm so glad you joined in on all the fun! :)
Super card Marlene
It's a popular misconception that CAS cards are easy! PErfect placement takes a lot of though to get right. As you have!
Good to see you
Thank you

A fabulous job for a one layer card Marlena, crisp, clean and gorgeous.
Thanks for playing along with this weeks challenge at JAI.
Soemtimes putting less on a card can be really difficult - but you have mastered it with this - stunning - love it.
Beautiful and elegant. It doesn't look like you struggled at all!
Love the butterflies double stamped, super colour too. x
Stunning Marlena..love it to bits! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Just Add Ink this week
I love it! I too find CAS incredibly tricky. Including less makes each single element so much more crucial - that said, you totally rocked this. Awesome :)
