Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
Sorry I have been missing for a few days, but it's half term, and Nanny to the rescue for child minding, and we did our usual baking too.
I must admit they are getting so good at it, and they take after someone. LOL.
Well last night I made a card for the Butterfly Challenge.
This is a 6"x6" size card.
Now recently I was very tempted, and bought the Aqua Spectrum Pens, which I have been wanting for ages.
So all this blue is done with those, but beware use gloves or you get blue hands for a few days.
I made the background paper with them, and then stamped all over it with them and my stamp.
I cut out a few flowers, and decoupaged them.
The butterfly die I won on the Butterfly Challenge isn't it pretty.
Coloured my ribbon also with the ink left over from making the paper.
The lace and the die cuts are my snippets.
So I'm off to the playground with this to see what antics everyone is up to while our lovely Miss Di, and Parsnip have a rest for this week.
Thank you so much for your visit.
Lots of crafty love. JENNY.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

Lovely background, and so beautiful with your stamping over top of it. Ditto that luscious lace at the top with the 3-D flowers & pearl centers, and of course the butterfly. The ribbon is gorgeous with all the other marvelous embellies on Miss J. TFS & Hugs
Ooooo Jenny what were you baking? I like baking but I like eating more!
If only cake was good for you. I wish.
I love your blue card, the lace is yummy and the butterfly is beautiful. I haven't got any of these markers yet. I do think with water colour pens, pencils, Distress markers and copics that I really should get any other alternatives. I girl can have too much!
Have a super weekend, hugs Erika. x
Ooohhh!!! I'm in love with this card!! Such a vibrant blue tone! The heartfelt flowers look gorgous with the pearls! And the butterfly is just a delight! Fab work!
Well done with the new blue marker, Jenny! That vibrant blue with the pure white of the pearls and lace is phenomenal! This is another outstanding design, my friend, and a wonderful use of snippets!! Enjoy your day! Hugs, Darnell
Wow! This is so perfect for the butterfly challenge. worth the blue fingers! lol
