Running spectacularly late.
I had a photo malfunction last night
and after staying up till 5.30am sorting it
gave up and went off to bed.
Finally here is todays post.
It's time for a new challenge over at
my Butterfly Challenge.
You can form your arch from flowers or maybe you have a stamp/die cut with an archway, A corner die cut makes a perfect arch when two are placed together to make the curve at the top. You are free to use what other embellishments you would like + your Butterfly of course. (Even an archway made from lots of little butterflies).
Here is my inspiration card for you.
Digi image is by Britishisleartworks
called 'Gothic Garden Arches Antique Illustation'
which I found on Etsy.
I coloured with my promarkers and just a little
pearlescent chalk around the aperture edging.
I die cut the aperture to the front of the card
using by Sizzix Scallop Crescent Tag die 656342.
You can see better in this picture that I have
backed with acetate and adhered the
Best Wishes sentiment to the front of it
which is showing through the die cut.
The butterflys are fly stickers and they
have been adhered across the top
of the archway as if in flight.
The digi image has been attached to the inside
of the card.
I have upped the ante on this challenge
but I'm sure you will all come up trumps.
I will post some more inspirations for you
later in the week so please be sure to call back.
I promise you they will not be dificult.
(Now would I lie to you!!!)
