OWH Mid Week Throw Down - No Sentiment

This week's Mid Week Throw Down is to make a card with no sentiment.  WHAT?!?  I am not into coloring, so I rarely use images.  I really depend on designer paper cut in fun ways.  EEK!  What to do?  OK, deep breath. 

I remembered that my sister in law gave me a beautiful sheet of K and Company butterfly and dragonfly stickers.  YES!!!

Random scraps of paper, silk moire ribbon, Cuttlebug embossing folder. I glued the body of the dragonfly to the card, and put small pop dots under both wings.  I may have to make a few more of these. 

How about one that is a little more masculine?  Well, this one didn't turn out as nice as my first card. 

Because of the mirror paper, I had to take the picture at a funny angle.  The card is OK, but not a favorite.  Maybe the silver piece is too high?  Wrenches the wrong color?  Maybe should have used black grommets?  All of the above?

    I love that dragonfly! You did great with both cards and the embossing gives them an extra special touch.

    That dragonfly is awesome and I love the second card - I think it's perfect - my son would totally want to get a card like this!

    You did an amazing job with the butterfly card and I would not change a thing on your masculine card- I like the color of the tools- it contrasts nicely with the embossed silver.

    Hi Bobbi,

    We coloring-challenged gals have to stick together. :)

    Nice job on both cards. I especially love the dragonfly.

    TFS!
