This is my second card for this weeks Midnight Madness Madness Sketch Challenge: http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/
using Priscilla's butterfly image - I love this butterfly - it is so lifelike when coloured. I thought I would go for warmer colours with this card. The DP is from my stash of cut papers, I am slowly getting the pile smaller! LOL! The gorgeous braid is from my friend Ann - I had it tucked away in a drawer and when I saw it, knew it was perfect for this weeks sketch.
I layered it onto the Beaded Flourish also from 'priscillastyles' lightly chalking it to soften the flourish and tone it with the Butterfly. The edges are sponged with Distressing Ink to give it an aged look, naturally I had to add bling and some mini roses (thanks Gunn!)
You can see the dimension here - I have used double thickness of foam tape to give the wings MORE dimension as my foam tape is not too high.
Thank you for looking and for the lovely comments you leave me both here and on my Blog: http://lovelylindascraftcentral.blogspot.com/
You are so encouraging and make my day! God bless you! {{hugs}}}

You just had to show off and do several MMSC68's didn't you Linda. I bet you are basking in your glory impressing Priscilla like this and leave her wanting more. I guess you are back in the "fave" position, but you will never be The Favorite and The Princess. Just wait till I come back and take over your reign again . . .
BTW, WOW, what a beautiful card and great display of Priscilla's beautiful butterfly digi. That braiding is absolutely STUNNING and your flowers from Gunn are perfection. I see Gunn comes in handy sometimes, doesn't she??? You really did do a beautiful job!!
I need to get my ugly card ready for the ugly card contest. Guess that won't take too long will it?
Hugs and Laughs,
Da Princess and Former Delusional Fave
