Butterfly wishes


There is a new challenge blog starting for the gorgeous Bilmalarna stamps and I Just fell in love with this cute stamp when it came out.
 I coloured the image first which I do not normally do and then no papers seemed to match which is surprising since I could decorate my house from top to bottom with the papers I have!
 So I went for all white on the base which I have seen done quite a lot lately on blogs,
a word of warning on this one eating chocolate biscuits while putting you card together is not a good idea
which I found out and had to do my base again.
The stamp I have used is Little winged friends and the base was made using a Marta Stewart round the page set. The sentiment is a greeting farm set called Butterfly Wishes and the little Butterflies are from another Martha Stewart punch.
Copic colours are:
Face/skin E000 E00 E11 R20
Hair E50 E51 E53
Bear E50 E53 E55 E57
Dress Bv00 Bv02 Bv04
trousers Bv23 Bv25 Bv29
Butterfly R81 R83 R85
Ground W1 W3

Well all I can say is it serves you right for eating chocolate biscuits and not sharing them with your fellow crafters, namely me ! LOL !
I love this card Louise, the white background and embellishments make the image stand out all the more and it gives it a lovely soft elegant feel, I may have a go at this myself, there are a lot of challenges around at the moment with "all white" as a theme ( but i`ll leave the choccies till after i`ve made the card !)
hugs Sara xx

So pretty Louise! I have that MS PATP on my wish list! I had to laugh about the chooci biccie comment - that's happened to me before, LOL! I too have tonnes of paper, but if I colour an image before picking the DP I find I can't find any to match, LOL! I just adore what you've done with the white background. TFS! Hugs, Sem x
