White plus One

Hi everyone,

Apologies I am running a little late with my post for our new challenge at Crafty Creations.

 

 

Our theme is White plus One.

 

 

Do you know how hard to chose that plus One!  I finally decided on girly pink. 

Here is my card:

 

 

I have used Modern Mosaic on the embossed panel and the butterflies have been created using the Bitty Butterfly Punch and the Beautiful Wings Embosslits.

 

The sentiment is from the A Round Array stamp set and punched out with the 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch.  The ribbon is retired Pretty in Pink from my stash.

 

 

 

Here is a close up of the embossed panel

I recently purchased this fabulous paper by Fabscraps C73003 Australia which has some images of the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, a Kookaburra and the word Australia and some script writing. It is really lovely and is perfect for this cute image from Elizabeth Bell called Daisy. 

 

The other paper used is by Pima Marketing "Something Blue Collection - Announcement".

I created the banner with the sentiment from Loving Thoughts set and added a bow with some retired Pretty in Pink Ribbon.

 

The main die is from the Marianne Die collection LR0327, isn't it beautiful.  Not sure why I haven't used it before and the edges and embossing was daubered with Sahara Sand ink.

 

 

The image was cut using the a Circle Die from the SU Circle Collection.  I have also used the retired Eyelet Border Punch.

 

Here is my card:

Angels & Fairies

 

We have some fabulous sponsors for our challenge including
A Day for Daisies, QKR Stampede and Bugaboo.

 

 

I have used A Day for Daisies image called Joy Angel.

 

Thee layout of my card has been inspired by the current sketch challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown challenge.

 

Their current challenge allows you to pick an old sketch and I decided on Sketch #27 from April 2014.  This sketch is fairly clean and simple but I think that this was perfect for this image.

 

Here is my card:

 

 

 

The cardstock used is retired Certainly Celery and I stamped some words and snowflakes from the Bright and Beautiful stamp set with Certainly Celery ink.

 

The sentiment was from a free stamp set called Heirloom Ornament by Spellbinders.

 

I added some sparkle with Dazzling Diamonds glitter on this very sweet angel's wings.

 

 

Here is a closer look at the image:

 

 

As you can see I decided to add some small pearls to the back of her hair.

 

The Copic Markers used were:

 

Skin: E0000, 000, 00, 11

Hair: E35, 37, 33, 50

Dress/Wings: YG00, 21, 23, 25

Butterflies: R0000, 01, 02
