Happy New Year... and a Birthday Card for My Mam

 A Happy New Year to anyone reading this - best wishes for 2024!

Each year the colour specialists, Pantone, determine the colour of the year which will influence fashion and style trends for the coming year For 2024, the colour is 'Peach Fuzz':


Now this is not a colour I'm particularly fond of - I find it a bit wishy washy and very 80s. However as one of my crafty resolutions is to push myself more I've decided to use this shade as inspiration for my Mam's birthday card - her birthday is 3rd January.

I've layered two different butterfly dies to add some depth to the image.


What I used:

Butterfly dies - free with magazines

Patterned paper - Ross Papercrafts

Greeting stamp - Honey Boo Stamps

Peach Vellum - Card Art Papercrafts

Pearls - Home Bargains


I'm playing along with the challenges at:

Creative Fingers Challenge #268 - AG

Crazy Critter Challenges #82 - AG

Crafting Happiness Challenge #155 - AG

Cut It Up Challenge #294 - AG


Thank you for stopping by
