Papercraft Star

Hello ... Are you having a good day?

This morning I'm playing along at Papercraft Star challenge which this week calls for us to use a flourish ... this is the inspiration photo


I made a card for my friend Pauline who has a birthday this week ... we met on our first day at school ... when we were 5 years old and have remained friends ever since


I used papers from two different Prima packs ... The Printery and Pixie Glen and of course a glittered flourish which comes from a company called Pebbles 


Love the sweet little glittered acetate butterfly ... I picked up a pack of these in a stationery store.

Why not hop over to Papercrafts Star and check out the weekly challenges? Every week they have  freebie too ... courtesy of The House Across the Bay a delightful Etsy shop with gorgeous digitals ... well worth paying a visit 

Thanks ever so much for your sweet comments and well wishes ... I'm still hobbling around but determined to go to Thursday club tonight and be with my group ...

Have a wonderful day
Keep safe
