What girl dosnt like a little bling

Hi everyone,

I have another card for you today ( managed to get a few min in the workshop even with the little boy)
This weeks challenge #55 at CAS-ual Fridays is Bling! and lets face it what girl doesn't like a little bling , especially on out papercraft projects.
I went looking for some inspiration for this card and found a link to this blog by Virgina. Wow what inspiration, please pop over and check it out its amazing fun. Its all about colour and rainbows of it!

So with a few min to whip something up this is what I came up with.

You may have already guessed,  I did it with my Tim Holtz markers, so much easier than pulling all the ink pads out LOL.  The stamp is part of a the Birthday greetings set that was released last January.
After stamping all the butterfly's and the sentiment , I ran the card through the Ezy-press and embossed with white dots. After that I burnished over where the butterflies where stamped so that the dots were not so pronounced. And then the bling, Each butterfly was covered with a generous amount of icstickles. Fun and easy! Just the way I like it.
When I have a little more time Iwill probably re do the matting on this as its not quiet right.
Have a good day

Rainbow butterflies

Hi all
Today I have a layout to share , that I have been meaning to do for ages.
I Had a fantastic demo party the other week and had such a fun time playing with my Tim Holtz markers and then letting all my ladies loose to create some fab cards.
Then after the demo a few special gals stayed on to create this layout.
It is one closely adapted from a workshop created by Karen Turner, I just changed the stamps a little and used a new distress markers technique.
Here is the layout












And some details

And this last one is of my absolute fab'est girls ever, look how happy they all look, not to mention
 how each of them made there layouts their own! Love these ladies.



If you are wondering I'm in the center...don't mind been center of attention LOL
Have a good day
