The Butterfly Garden & Some News

Morning Peeps,

How are we all? It seems an age since my last post, although it was only Wednesday, lol.  Well I've done a session in the gymn and surprised myself by not being as unfit as I thought I was, I certainly gave it some wellie that's for sure and me liitle legs were like jelly when I came out, but I made it home in one piece.

Today at Make It Colourful the theme is to "Add pleats and folds" to your image and this week we are being sponsored by Magnolialicious, so a good excuse for me to use a Tilda, hehehe.  I've made an easel card with some gorgeous papers from Prima and Pion.  I have used a background image from Make It Crafty that is so new it hasn't been released and I don't have a date yet.  So watch out for the future new release as these backgrounds go great with all your images and will be perfect for the summer.

 

 

I stamped Tilda on to my card stock and masked her off and the put her through the printer to print the Make It Crafty "Tulip Garden", but don't tell Zoe but she's standing on the beetle, oops!  Do you see the little snail there on the lefthandside.  So cute, so watch out for more of these backgrounds.

 I cut out the butterflys in the paper and positioned the main image panel underneath.  You can see this better in the side view of the card.

 This is the base panel.

You can see how I did the butterflies better in this sideview.
