Butterfies

Crafter's Companion Challenge here "Girl's Birthday"

For this card I started with embossing and cutting out large butterflies from  using Crafters Companion Teddy Surprise and Butterflies embossing board and some backing papers from the Adorables CD.Then created a backing paper by overlapping them onto a lilac card.I laid down a band of silver and gold leafing flakes and to the side of this added the butterfly border from the board.

The pretty Blackthorn fairy was coloured in with pro markers and mounted onto some 3D illusion film .

Finishing touches were added by embossing and cutting out some of the small butterflies and raising these then adding some glitter.

Afternoon Tea

Quickly posting this entry to the Quick Cards Food challenge http://www.cardmakingandpapercraft.com/challenge/quick-cards-food-challenge . A trifold card using some digi stamps from La Pasche coloured with promarkers.The verse reads

I cannot sit and chat with you
The way I'd really like to do.
But brew yourself a cup of tea,
I'll think of you, you think of me.
And if you're really feeling blue
Enjoy a cupcake with me too.

Never Ending Love

Pale green vellum with matted rectangles of silver and pale green Hunkydory card form the background with some strips of  lace border that I punched out of a white paper sprayed with a glitter spray.
The bride came from Debbi Moore's 100 Beautiful Ladies CD . I printed out the image 4 times and ``decoupaged it adding some glitter highlights. A metal floral bouquet and gold bow added a finishing touch.

Aqua and Brown

Guess what? Another one for Crafter's Companion Aqua and Brown Challenge  . I enjoyed making the acordian pleated flower for a change and cut a rough frame out of backing paper and the copper metallic backing card to frame the pro marker image.

My Brother

Another one inspired by Crafter's Companion Challenge (Here). Pity the colours aren't quite true to life Again using backing papers from the Adorables cd .

Time for Tea

The Crafter's Companion Challenge (here) for April is Aqua and Brown and I've really enjoyed going "sepia" with my pro markers..My backing papers are from Crafter's Companion Adorables Christmas CD but the backing papers I find work well any time.
The image if from Flower Soft but I felt it worked well with the old fashioned look.
