Just Do It Yourself !!!!!!

It was so great to see all the awesome monochrome cards for our last challenge at Simply Create.  This time we are challenging you to DIY (Do It Yourself) so get those thinking caps on and make your own things.  Maybe background paper, flowers, embellishments.....be creative and have fun!!!  You are going to be amazed with all the creative things the DT has made to give you lots of inspiration.....go check them out HERE.

I have a BIG announcement to share with you before I show you my card.  We have added some very creative, amazing and very talented ladies to our DT at Simply Create.  Please help us make them all welcome!!!!

Here is my DIY card.  I have made the sunflower from fabric and a button for the center.....this can be removed from the card and used as a magnet.  Lots of layers on my card....background is embossed with QuicKutz folder; lace; EK Success scallop border punch; paper piercing; Cuttlebug embossing dots; stamped sentiment is Studio G; butterfly was a RAK from a friend.  TFL
