This is my take on a Mardi Gras card. I used all traditional Mardi Gras Colors. My butterfly is actually a butterfly mask I made. If you look closely, you'll see the eye holes. My two masks in the corners are actually chip board that I glittered and added feathers to. I didn't have a Mardi Gras stamp so I hand wrote Happy Mardi Gras!
I have some surprise blog candy to be given away today all you have to do is become a follower of my blog and leave me a comment telling me so with a way to contact you. I'll be announcing the winner next week on my blog in my regular post.
