Now this is going to be a brief post from me, as the original scheduled posting (which took me an hour) just completely vanished when I pressed publish, and threw me in a right panic. It might re-appear and I will have a double post, or it might not :( Naughty blogger!
So today over at I ♥ Promarkers we have a new challenge theme and this week it is 'Things With Wings' - One of my favourites! :) We are sponsored again by one of our regular and generous sponsors Joanna Sheen, so its a really fabulous prize up for grabs.
I used a Sugar Nellie image and followed the great sketch over at The Sugar Bowl.
The lacy border, doily, butterflies and vines were cut using my Silhouette digital die cutter - I told you I would be putting it through its paces! :) lol. It does take longer than using my bug, but its lovely to have such a variety and have the ability to resize them too.
I am entering this card in the below competitions:
