Birthday Wishes

Hiya to all of you in the land of blog
After my recent long weekend play, this is one of the cards, that I got to play with.  Love colouring these images and got to play with my new Cheery Lynn little butterflies too.

The base layer is a cornflower blue card from the Hobby House, the Papers are from the Bloomsbury Collection and so very pretty.  I used a grand nestie oval and matching scallop for the image plate.  Some cheesecloth for a floaty feel to the creation.  A Wild Rose sentiment die cut and lots of Wild Orchid Crafts little flowers all air brushed with RV93 as was the image plate.  The butterflies have been given liquid pearls pink bodies and the little pearls around the image plate are from a new colour theme at the Hobby House.

Here are some close ups
The Wild Rose Studio sentiment die cut and airbrushed
The floral spray
and this is the inner sentiment from Personal Impressions
I would like to thank all of my wonderful visitors who take the time to leave me such inspirational and kind comments, and this then allows me to hop on over and visit you in return.

    Hi Kate,
    Where do I begin to compliment you? I just love the cheesecloth, it really does give a wonderful floaty feel to your card and those butterflies add perfectly to that! The image is colored so beautifully and the fact that you airbrushed the roses and the trim..WOW!! What a magnificent card. Top notch quality!! :)
