As You Like It - Favourite - gems or pearls? I like using gems or pearls on all my cards but pearls are definitely my favourite. I love the soft sheen they give, the muted colours and that they look much 'classier' than gems. Gems are really a Christmas thing, pearls are suitable for any occasion.


So have a pop over at the Dream Valley Challenge Blog to see some more lovely inspiration from my teamies on the design team and have a chance at winning a prize.

Butterfly Birthday

 Today I was greatly inspired by the current sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches (yes, I know it's Thursday but timekeeping isn't one of  my better traits)



Here is what I made:



What I used:

Pink patterned paper - Dovecraft

Brown patterned paper - Craft Sensations

Pink card - Project Life - Becky Higgins

Butterfly stamp and die - SC&P magazine #239

Greeting - SC&P magazine #240

Pearls - The Range


Such a pretty sketch - no odd bits to confuse me! I stamped the image in a basic brown ink and coloured it using Spectrum Noir pens.


I'm also playing along with the challenges at:

Craft Rocket Challenge #102 - layer it up

Happy Little Stampers April - AG and use dies

Paper Shelter #549 - is it a bird? is it a plane?

Creative Moments #244 - wings and things


Thanks for visiting
