MMM Design team call and CAS-ual Fridays CF27

I've only recently come across the MMM blog and their challenges and I was lucky enough to win a fabulous prize in September with my steampunk entries. I love the way there is a continuous theme throughout the month and also different techniques highlighted in the mid week motivation. Anyway they are now looking for more people to join the design team and so I thought I would have a go. My favourite thing is stamping but I also love using my digital Craft Artist package and now my Silhouette!
I would love to be part of the DT as I find them creative and inspirational and hope that I would be considered good enough to join them. To be in with a chance I have to submit a card based on Celebration. Well goodness me that covers sooo many things!! 
I finally decided to make a card using my new silhouette and this is what I came up with. I am also entering it for CAS-ual Fridays which is to Create a Clean And Simple card with a panel or design element that goes Over the Edge of the card front.
I cut the card, heart and butterfly on the Silhouette and used some Debbi Moore pearlised linen paper to highlight the design on the bottom. I threaded ribbon through the heart sponged the edges with mauve chalk ink. I used the same ink on the butterfly and overstamped with a Clarity corner stamp. I added some jewels and a sentiment.
Fingers crossed and thanks for taking the time to visit me:)
