DYSU #61 - Things With Wings

Hi all, this morning brings us another challenge from DYSU, and this week would like to see...


Things with Wings on your projects!

The D.T. were lucky to have been given some images to play with from our generous sponsors, and I have used Butterfly and Blossoms Digi from Paper Pretties.



I printed the digi onto some Neenah Classic Crest White card, coloured with Promarkers, and cut with a Nestabilities label 10. I then took the same die, and traced around the outer edge with pencil onto some Admiral Blue Core'dinations card, and hand cut the mat.



I then cut a larger mat to fit a white petal point card base, and layered some patterned paper from Kaisercraft, wrapped some pale blue satin ribbon around the middle, and topped with a die cut border using a PTI die.


After adhering the label to the mat base, I attached some paper roses topped with stickles.
The sentiment is from Waltzingmouse Stamps, finished off with some yellow flat back pearls.
