Recipe: Sticker

Just flying by today to enter into Less is More's challenge this week - the recipe is to use a sticker or peel off.  Most of us have probably 'weaned' ourselves off using stickers too much, and I have certainly donated most of mine to local kindergartens, but there are still some beautiful stickers around and now is the chance to use one, or two!

So here is my card - the butterfly sticker was purchased from a $2 shop, and has no obvious origin.  The stamped background is by Stampin' Up! - Gorgeous Grunge and Work of Art, and the die cut is Elsa Butterfly Branch by Memory Box.

I hope I have scraped in for this challenge - rushing off now to attend a funeral
:(

Thanks for visiting!

    Love your creative way to use a peel off - the card is great.

    Hope that funeral went off as well as these things ever do

Wow!  Where has the year gone already?  We will soon be caught up with the 'busyness' of Christmas, summer and holidays no doubt, so I'm happy to welcome you to this month's Blog Hop and Challenge at Scrapbook Boutique - let's have fun while we can! You should have arrived here from  Angela's  amazing blog but if you didn't and want to start at the beginning, just click on the SBB blog link above and start again!   Here is this month's gorgeous mood board, to inspire you!  It may be the butterflies, the colours, the designs - whatever takes your fancy!  I love using butterflies in my cards, so I was very happy with this challenge!  I was inspired by the idea of drifts of butterflies and those lovely pink colours!

Scrapbook Boutique May Blog Hop and Challenge

Welcome to another blog hop and challenge at Scrapbook Boutique - this month it is based on this amazing mood board! You should have arrived here from  Angela's  lovely blog. What a beautiful collection of images, celebrating motherhood, new babies and all things girly! I just love to make 'new baby' cards, and was inspired by the little ballet shoes and dress to embellish my card with the tulle ribbon.  I also loved the metallic letters, but thought silver was a softer option than gold with pink, so kept to the silver dots on my pattern paper, as well as the silver twine.  I created my own background with a little strip of hearts from a Lawn Fawn set called Into the Woods.  Now for a close-up, to catch that sparkle! I hope you are inspired to create something after seeing this mood board and if you do, or if you just want to join in, there are two ways you can participate in this challenge and have a chance to win a prize.  You...
