Hello everyone I certainly hope you are all enjoying your weekends. I am going to put my Halloween decorations up today in preparation for spookiness! I need some cobwebs so I'll have to go out later and try and find some, I knew I shouldn't have dusted - lol!!
I have not made a card today but tried something completely different. I while back I got some little calenders which came in a pack of 10 and I think they were only £1 which seems very cheap to me, they are by Anita's. I saw a tutorial on how to make a calender with XL frames on Lisa's blog and decided to give it a go as I am still playing with my Big Shot. Here is the result:
I quite enjoyed making something other than a card for a change. I have used my Kreate Dies XXL and the papers are Anna Griffin which I have had for years and I do mean years! The image is sitting Tilda but it is not the one I wanted to use that one had a butterfly on the back of her dress but I could not find the blighter anywhere - do need to catalogue those stamps!! I have distressed the edge with pink acrylic paint. I have used a Spellbinders Parisian Accent motif on the left side and the other dies are Marianne with the small butterfly being a MS punch. I have Stickled the heart and small butterfly and added gems to both butterflies. The decorative pin I made myself and flowers are Wild Orchid. I did tell my husband he could have it for his desk but he didn't look too impressed, I can't think why!!
I will enter it in the following challenges:
Just Magnolia - Pink
Totally Papercrafts - Layer upon Layer
Scrappy Frogs - Something that Flies
The Squirrel and The Fox - One for the Girls
Thanks so much for looking, enjoy the rest of your weekends and take care xx
