Sweet Pea for my first DT card - One Stop Craft Challenge



Hope everyone is having a fabulous start to the weekend? :)

Now this is my first DT card for the One Stop Craft Challenge, (I'm so excited! - lol)

This week the theme is faeries or angels, (who doesnt love them!?) so I hope you feel like joining in.

I used a Sweet Pea image called 'In the Wind' and it was so lovely to work with.  I used MS punches (butterfly and border), nesties, stickles and a 12 x 12 piece of paper I never thought I would cut into! :) lol.
Flowers are Marianne dies, pearls from stash. 

I am entering this card in the following competitions:

Lets Ink It Up - Dies and Punches
Papertake Weekly - Girly
Simon Says Stamp - Girly
In a Sweet Pea Dream - Hello Spring
Crafts and Me - Anything Goes
Flutterby Wednesdays - Anything Goes

2 Sisters Challenge - Make own embellishments

Thanks so much for looking, and good luck to everyone in these challenges,

    WOW Alison, love it, image is gorgeous and coloured so beautifully and I love the flowers, have actually got that die and never used them, really must give them a try.

    Went to the Hobby Craft show at the NEC yesterday, first time I have ever been, and omg there was so much to look at. Hopefully get a post up about it later with some cards using my new stash :) but having a bit of a busy weekend having to go out for a friends birthday last night and a work function this evening. Damn socialising is eating into my crafting time hehe.

    Have a fab weekend and see you in blog land xx
