Firstly, I stamped my image from the new Forever Friends Best of British clear stamps; 'great big hugs' set. I cut it into a circle and cut a circle of blue paper a size larger to go round the outside. I coloured the image using copics markers and edged the circle using Versamagic, aloe vera.
I then picked three more papers to attatch to the base card, one for the main backing and the others for a strip across the bottom. I picked the papers from the Dovecraft Sugar and Spice paper pack.
I then stamped a greeting from the Personal Impressions mixed sentiments clear stamps which I then cut into another circle. I edged the greeting with Versamagic, pixie dust. Embelishments to match the colour scheme were easy to find from mum's stash :) I chose several flowers which I centered with butterfly gems and chunkier flowers. I added two pins onto which I added small pink beads and a butterfly bead. To finish, I used the large and small butterfly Clippunches to embelish the edge of my image. I edged them with Colourbox pink and green inks.
I would like to enter this card in the following challenges: -
