I made this card for no special reason, I just wanted to practice using Promarkers and Prismacolour pencils. Rather than waste the image I made the card below:
For once, I am reasonably happy with my colouring so I thought I would enter it into Wild Orchid Crafts challenge at http://wildorchidchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/ .
I used a Saturated Canary digi stamp, Magnolia papers, Silk Art card for the mat, swirl, corner and the butterflies, plain ribbon coloured with distress ink (worn lipstick), lace from my stash and the roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
I would also like to enter my card into the Fussy and Fancy challenge over at http://fussyandfancychallenge.blogspot.co.uk/ which my lovely blog friend Yorkshire Fox recommended. The theme of the challenge is Swirls and Flourishes.
If you visit I would appreciate it if you would leave me a comment and I will do my best to return the compliment (not on Facebook or Pinterest). Crafty hugs, Anne x
