I thought a slimline card would work pretty well for this Can You Handle The Pressure? challenge. Embossing folder used came with my Gemini. Butterfly die is Vivienne & Darla Butterfly by Memory Box. At first, I had the blue layer directly on the yellow base but it didn’t look quite right and since the butterfly overlay is black I thought a black layer would really add a lot. Was I right?
Thanks for stopping by. Comments are greatly appreciated. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

Lovely slimline card. Gina K almost always uses a black layer on her cards in her videos and it really does make the focal panel pop. Love those butterfly dies. I must dig mine out and use them.
Lovely card! Yes, your black layer was the perfect addition.
Oh heck ya on the black layer. The slimline fits so good with the embossed blue.
I have that same folder and you used it beautifully here. Absolutely a good idea of using the black outline for the focal piece. Its a great card and design.
Definitely a yes with the black layer. It just highlights the focal panel so much. Love the slimline embossed panel and a fantastic butterfly.
Beautiful texture, gorgeous butterfly!
Beautifully designed card, pretty butterfly too! Thank you for joining our challenge at Can You Handle The pressure!

This is so pretty! That background is perfect for the butterfly.
The black panel was the perfect thing to do. Your embossed panel is gorgeous, and I love the simple butterfly gracing it. Wonderful card. Thanks for playing with us at Can You Handle The Pressure?.
