Blue & gold butterflies


Hi everyone, I was inspired to make this card by the colours at
Scrapbook Boutique's challenge this month. The base card looks black but it's a dark navy.
These cupcakes look so delicious!

Enter Our Challenge - starts 10th each month

At Cuttlebug Mania the theme is to use a sentiment, as well as a manual machine like a Cuttlebug. I used mine to diecut the tag and the flourish and to emboss the tag.

I'm also linking up to the anything goes challenge at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday.
Simon Wednesday Challenge Blog

Supplies: 
Darkroom Door butterflies stamp; versafine ink & clear ep; twinkling H2Os; MFT tag die; Stampin Up stripes embossing folder; Crafty Ann flourish die; gold shimmer paper; sentiment sticker.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

Hi Cathy, I've been visiting you after you commented on my effort in SBB August challenge, and I love what I see here! I'm also sorry I didn't get around to visiting your lovely submission for this challenge at SBB but I think it was because I was away on a cruise and out of internet range. However, a belated thank you for sharing your lovely work with us at SBB - I'll look out for your entries in the future!
