Gracias - A Moxie Fab Challenge

Hi everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I have a few cards to post. Tonight, I'll make it quick with this one. The deadline is in a few minutes for Cath's Moxie Fab Gradient is Radient Challenge.

I've had the SU! butterfly die for a while. I "had to have it". Well, I obviously have been neglecting it. My goodness! I've got some stamp sets that I also had to have. I haven't used them. I really want the We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper. I would've used it on this card and the cards I was working on yesterday. That's definitely a need, not a want.

I used some glossy paper and some die inks to brayer on the color for the gradient color look.

Thanks for stopping by!

Card Ingredients
Stamps: Palabras Maravillosas (SU! - retired), Distressed Circles (Cornish Heritage Farms)
Paper: white glossy kromekote, Bermuda Bay textured (SU!), patterned paper (Urban Prairie- BasicGrey), Kraft Cardstock Stickers (Hambly Studios)
Ink: Kaleidacolor Caribbean Sea, Chestnut Roan & Creamy Brown chalk ink (ColorBox), VersaMark
Tools: Big Shot, butterfly die (SU!), corner rounder (Fiskars), brayer
Other: wire (Making Memories), clear embossing powder, foam tape

This is gorgeous! I love the butterfly! I really want a Corner Chomper too! I am still using my Creative Memories one from almost 8 years ago! It barely punches anymore... I geez, here I go justifying more crafty shopping! :-) It's on my wish list! You'll have to let us know what you think when you get one!

Wowza! This is a definite winner!! Love how you used the butterfly and the paper with butterflies as an accent too! I haven't used glossy paper forever, maybe I better dig some out! And my butterfly die too, since I also HAD to have it! lol!
