It's Friday again, which means it's challenge day over at Polkadoodles and it was my turn to choose the theme this week. I had to pick something which allowed me to use one of my favourites - butterflies, but I am looking forward to seeing all the different interpretations of 'Wings and Things'. Here's what I made for the challenge ...
I chose a pretty pink paper, some gorgeous black silhouette butterflies and a lovely sentiment from the Candy Doodles CD to make a wall hanging for my craft room. I started with the paper and arranged all the black butterflies and sentiment before printing it out. I then masked some of the butterflies before adding lots of extra interest to the paper with some 'Spun Sugar' distress ink. I cut out another butterfly and treat it to a sprinkling of pink glitter before adding it to the oval nestie focal point. The project is mounted on black mirri card, then again on pink card before I added a piece of black ribbon for hanging and the usual sprinkling of adhesive gems for a bit of extra bling!
Don't forget to pop over to the blog for some great ideas from my fab teamies.
