I'm really struggling to take good photographs at the moment, it's either raining and really dark or so sunny that everything looks bleached. It was the latter when I took this photo, the backing papers are actually quite yellow, the dotty one is from Willow Designs Polly Pickleberry CD and the one with butterflies on it is from the Ivory Cats CD. I went for a contrast with the base card stock and used some bright blue that has been in my stash for some time.
I punched the border with a Martha Stewart Punch and the butterfly is a Die-namics die cut. The sentiment stamp is from Wild Rose Studio and is stamped onto a CREAlies die cut label. The flowers, ribbon, lace and gems are all from my stash.
This is the inside of my card, I have decorated it to complement the front:

This is lovely Pauline, it's one of Joanna's cd's I don't have. I love how you've picked the blue and yellow out of the main image, looks so effective. Your flower arrangement and bow are gorgeous.

This is a beauty Pauline, well thought oout and put together. I did wonder if I should make a cat themed card but went for a fairy, now seeing this I wish I'd gone with my first thought.
