Butterfly on a Stem

This is my DT card for the new Crafting for all Seasons challenge:

This time we have a sketch for you to follow:

I have sort of kept to the sketch, but rather than use a rectangle I used corners (because I wasn't clever enough to make the rectangle fit).  This week we have three great sponsors:

Fred, she said

Pink Cat Studio

and

The Stamping Boutique

Pop over the the Crafting for all Seasons Challenge blog to see what the fab prizes are.

I chose to work with the fab image Butterfly on Tall Stem from the Dots and Delights Series by Pink Cat Studio and coloured it with FlexMarkers,  I added a few gems to the flowers and butterfly wings.  Full details of everything I have used are listed below.

This is the inside of my card that I have decorated to match:

Full details of everything I have used are listed below.

Walkies

It's Whoopsi Daisy Challenge time again and this week we would like to see cards with Spots and Dots on them.  I've used the Daisy and Friends CD again, this CD is great, all of the girls and boys are so different - each one has their own character.

I used one of the Naughty Niecey coloured images and kept to the pink and black colour scheme throughout.  I have followed the sketch over at Seems a little Sketchy, the circle is die cut as is the border that you can hardly see now because I've covered it up with ribbon and my flower.  The centre of the flower has been made using my new Epiphany Shape Studio, it's the first time I have used it and I think it might take a bit of getting used to.  Full details of everything I have used are in the card recipe below.

This is the inside of my card:
