Today is the day for me to show you my creation for the Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps Facebook Group.
Our challenge this month is:
"EASTER or FLORAL"
but the Design Team had another challenge of:
"USE PEARLS or GEMS or SEQUINS".
Here is my inspiration post with that theme.
I decided to use sequins and Nuvo pearl drops on my card to fit in with the theme.
This week for my birthday card I have used the fully coloured image by Ching-Chou Kuik herself called "Butterflies Fly". In this set you will get the coloured image and a black-and-white image.
I have used papers from The Works. I have cut out the layers with a Daisy Mae Designs cross-stitch dies. This is the first time I have used them and they cut beautifully. Just wish they had put a few more dies in the set even if it meant they cost a little more. On the outer layer I sewed a half cross-stitch all the way around the edge which took a while. I think I should have used a slightly darker thread to make the stitching more prominent.
I have finished the card off with a piece of frilly lace/ribbon, vellum die-cut butterflies (I have added Stickles glitter glue to their wings and Nuvo pearl drops to the wings and body), LOTV digital sentiment and some shocking pink sequins.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
