Today sees the start of a new challenge over at Lexi's Creations and the challenge this week is Happy Birthday. How easy could that be I ask? Here is what I have made:
I have used Ladybug Flowers which is available at Fairydust Crafts here. I have coloured my image with Copics and added some Flowersoft to the centre of the flowers. The image has been cut and matted with Spellbinders and then distressed with some Antique Linen Distress Ink. The doily is a gorgeous Cheery Lynn die called Sophia's Heart it is so pretty and very big! The butterfly and flower are also Cheery Lynn dies, I have distressed the edges of the butterfly with Antique Linen. The sentiment is computer generated and cut out with Spellbinders. The papers are a recent win from Bearly Mine Designs I got to choose two digi sets of papers and I can tell you it was a hard choice the papers are gorgeous! You can see the Bearly Mine designs here. I have just finished off with some pearls from my stash. We are sponsored this week by:
Joanna Sheen is our sponsor and they have free p and p so it is well worth giving them a visit! Please pop over to Lexi's and see what my talented team mates have done its well worth the visit!
