Hi there, well its Friday already yippppppeeee and time for a new challenge from Crafty Ann's and this time the theme is 'What's new pussycat?' As always there is a fab prize from Crafty Ann's Digi Shop for our lucky winner.
I've used elements from Crafty Ann's new digi collection called 'Sweet Sage', aren't they the most gorgeous colours?? I've layered them digitally to create this card. As I'm a total numpty when it comes to digital crafting so I'm really happy I managed to create this. I printed the digi sheet off and matted it on some gold textured card, adding some dew drops in the corners. I printed out a couple of Crafty Ann's gorgeous metallic butterflies and coloured them with sakura stardust pens. I haven't used these pens for ages and I'd forgotten how beautiful and sparkly they are. Once I'd cut the butterflies out I popped them on to the card with some silicone blue. With the digital layering this card was sooooo easy to make,
I kind of felt like I'd cheated lol.
I'm entering this one in the following challenges:
Crafty Purple Frog: anything goes
Dream Valley: anything goes
Flutter by Wednesday: Open challenge with a butterfly angel or fairy
Lollipop Crafts: No embellishments
Moving Along with the times: things with wings
Thanks for popping by. i've been a bad blogger again this week and haven't had chance to do a lot of visiting. i've a good excuse though, the little charity i work for has had the chance of some extra funding so i've been up to my ears in planning a new project. :-)

Love your rich background and the way you've framed the b'flies!
ReplyDeleteYour colours are gorgeous & I love those buterflies - I'm just going to have to get some butterfly stamps out & try to have a play over the weekend. Sounds as if you've really had your hands full with work so hope you can have some good time for yourself over the weekend. I'm a numpty too - managed to delete the whole of my A Alphatag by mistake last night.
