Butterfly Flowerpots...

Wow, hello again.  It has been a few months between posts. 

 

I am super excited today to be sharing with you some exciting news that I have been unable to share until now.  I have joined the Design Team at Crafter's Cafe Blog Challenge and today is my very first post for challenge # 304 for January 2024. 

 

This month the theme is Fancy Edges - Deckled,Distressed, Inked and our  sponsor is:

 For my card I have chosen this beautiful image Butterfly Flower Pots and have coloured it up using Prisma colour pencils.  It was such a fun image to colour.   I deckled the edges of my background cardstock using the Tim Holtz Deckle cutter and then inked the edges using Momento Ink in London Fog.  I also inked the brickwork die cut edges and sentiment, before placing the flowers pots to tie everything together.  I just love how my card came together and hope you like it as well.
