Hello Everyone! Happy Monday!!
Can you believe it is the last day of the month?!
I cant! I didn't realise it until today - I thought I
had a whole other day to finish off my work for
April but nooooo...my dear daughter pointed out
that April does indeed have only 30 days - uuuugh!!
I just never have enough time to complete the challenges
that I would like! BUT - not to worry - I can't do everything
and I have achieved something really awesome this weekend,
which I will share with you on Thursday so come back & see!
papers from Glitz Design, Happy Traveller (beautiful papers
and so versatile as my layout has nothing to do with travelling!)
I used the Bella! Bling from the kit, but I cut it up
into strips to use for the butterflies' bodies.
I added a doily from my stash & a doily-type diecut
from a Spellbinders die, that I sanded a bit.
Butterflies were punched using my Martha Stewart Crafts
double butterfly punch. I chose a long title to make the
most of those awesome Prima alphas (supplied in the kit).
To do this it's best to chose a photo with some white space
for the title to fit. I love this photo of my 2 girls :)
