Hi Everyone
Happy Thursday!
Can't believe the week is flying by so quickly! But at least I am back to knowing what day it is .. .. which is always a bonus.
As suspected there was no "playtime" available yesterday. It was weddings all the way, right into the evening.
But I "needed" a card today so before the day took hold I created this little make using the guidelines provided by the lovely Mrs A over at the Butterfly Challenge. I haven't managed to use all the elements on the wheel .. .. I am missing one .. .. but am happy with my selections which were:
Image (mine was stamped and heat embossed but you can use a digi image too)
Colours: Ivory, Imperial Purple and Iceburg
Include a Die Cut
and of course the compulsory element .. .. .. A BUTTERFLY
This used:
Image: Crafter's Companion "Flutterby"
Sentiment: Penny Black "Sentiment Collection" 30-350
Backing Paper: First Edition Paper "Wild Flower"
Winsor and Newton Watercolours
Crystal Glamour Dust
Flat backed pearls
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Oooo .. .. and have you found the teeny tiny die-cut? LOL!!!
and that is me for today.
Back to the wedding work now before heading off to Mum later.
