CR84FN15 Colour Challenge

Hey there ... 
It's a beautiful sunny day here and I am confined to my little room as we are having the en suite done so more mess ... hubby will be taking advantage of the sunshine and going to golf ... and me ... I will be catching up on some work ...
I have a card to share that I made for this weeks' challenge at CR84FN ... this is the lovely colour palette 



and here is my card 


That gorgeous teal and yellow paper is from We R Memory Keepers ... and the yellow background paper is from K & Co



I fussy cut the little fairy and butterfly from a book I had and mounted them with foam pads onto this green crackled chipboard which I had in my stash 
That beautiful flower is from Prima and the lace is from Kirsty ....

I recently bought some more crackle paint ... I have all these things in my head that I want to do and somehow I collect the goods and then time gets away from me and I don't seem to get them done ... Is it just me or are some of you like that?
Have a wonderful day whatever you are doing 

Till soon
~ Ros ~

Love the sweet yellow fairy, butterfly and gorgeous flower! Such a pretty and delicate card!

Yes, I'm the same, lots of things in my stash I want to use and I haven't got around to, including crackle paint!! I think we're all like that!! : ) I really need to try and organise my space a bit better, I forget what I have half the time!!

Oops! You caught all of us! We all hoard supplies. I am trying to be better this year. That means not going into a store at all or with a list, staying off the online stores! I love your card, don't you hate cutting up books?, I do! Your image is so lovely! The card is beautiful, just like spring around the corner. Sending hugs your way!

This is so cute.. I love that you cut that image from a book.. I have thought of doing that before.. I have even looked for old vintage books at the antique shops.. But the ones I really like they want an arm and a leg for. so I am still hunting... I just love there colors this week..

Hugs, Linda
