Laughter is the best calorie burner

Hi and welcome to my post to announce the start of the latest challenge at ATSM. This week it is our photo inspiration and here is my card.

Here is our gorgeous photo.



Love those colours and the watercolour wash over the white embossed words.
I think Kylie may have chosen this because the theme of her recent crafty retreat was using Brushos.
So while playing with them whilst in Swindon with the rest of the ladies, I made this using a LOTV phrase stamp stamped and embossed with clear EP, thanks Kathy, on watercolour paper, then sprinkled with Brusho and spritzed with water and left to dry and the magic to happen.
When dry I cut a panel with a stitched rectangle die and a few punched butterflies from the waste finished it off. Simples.
