Artygirlz Challenge 49 - Summer Theme


Kept it very simple, the weather in Scotland has been dire this 'summer', so its a bit of a dirty word around here!!! I used papers from Funky Hand, and some vellum for part of the back ground and the butterfly, I have used and abused this particular Cuttlebug die. I punched out some coredinations pink card stock and sanded it to reveal the core where i had embosed it with the Cuttlebug Divine Swirls folder. some pink brads to hold the vellum in place and (where would i be without my) bling on the butterfly's body.

Penny black challenge - ribbons


Decided to give the Penny Black challenge a try. I love ribbons have tons of them so this one was fun for me. This Penny Black stamp is one of my favourites called 'Garden Poems'. Jen Wilson paper, downloaded sentiments today from Pink Petticoat cos i hate my handwriting so thats where i got that one from. U will soon get fed up of my scallop circle punch, cant get enough at the moment.
