WaltzingMouse Sketch 17

It been a glorious day here ... always the way ... people have the weekend off  work and it rains non stop and then Monday comes and hey ho the sun comes out ... I've been to my Pilates class and don't feel as rough as I did last week ... Thankfully! ... And I've had time to do a card for the latest challenge at WaltzingMouse ... This is the sketch ...

I am having a terrible time uploading lately ... since blogger change the format everything is taking forever! So here's my card (I hope) ...


I used 3 different stamps here 2 of which are butterflies ... I love white stamped on kraft CS and I also love pink with kraft so I used some pink glittery tulle to make a bow and glittered a flower ... the 'button' is actually a brad ... had to add some bling to my flowers too  ... just gives it a soft look don't you think? 

Don't forget tomorrow marks the start of a brand new challenge over at City Crafter Challenge so you still have time to enter our current challenge ... 
Thank you once again to all you lovely people who take the time to leave a comment ... I look forward to each day to hear from you ... 
Enjoy the rest of your day ...

Yes, you're right! Over here the sun was shining too all day long! Didn't get to do much nice exercise though, apart from unloading a 40' HQ container, LOL! Pilates sounds like more fun :-) The background of your card is amazingly beautiful Ros!

Love this card,it is so pretty with the lovely bow and flower. I love the flower stamp you've used too.
I know what you mean about blogger,it has just taken me 3 hours to upload photo's and post,very frustrating.

The combination of the white ink on the kraft is so pretty! What a gorgeous card!

Love teh different stamps you used for your background. The butterflies are so pretty.
I found in the new blogger format that you can choose all your pics then add them all at once. M?uch easier. Then you can go and put spaces where they are needed and type. Took me a couple posts to figure it out. :)
Hugs,
Heather

Hi Ros, I love your card, and the touch of tulle is just perfect. I can totally identify in feeling much better after a Pilates class! We had similar weather with the spring school holidays here - two weeks of rain and drizzle. Then Monday, back to school... and the sun came out!! LOL!

Your butterflies are breathtaking; in fact the whole card is breathaking. I am a huge fan of white on kraft cardstock and this card is such a beautiful and perfect example. Lovely details; especially your bow!
Hugs,
