Enchanted Dreams Embossed Card

Well, another week managed to pass me by. I shan't be around much from this weekend until the end of the month, so, I've been very busy trying to get ahead with my DT  and commission work.
I did find time to make a birthday card for a female relative which happily ties in with the current challenge on Joanna Sheen's challenge blog.

I used Joanna Sheen's Enchanted Dreams CD which features the beautiful artwork of Josephine Wall. There is so much to see in every one of her images and I never tire of looking at them. 

I used a Papermania textured card for the mats. The white embossed layer is Centura pearl and a Sizzix embossing folder. The dark blue panel was created with Core'dination card and a Cuttlebug folder.

This wonderful image is from the Dragons and Unicorns section of the CD. I matted it and mounted it on foam pads for dimension. 

The sentiment was created on the computer and I finished off the card with a small Cheery Lynn leaf flourish and three sapphire coloured gems.

I'd like to enter this card in the Joanna Sheen Challenge "Embossing"

Hopefully I'll be back in a couple of days with another card to show you.

Emma's Crafty Challenge #15 Reminder

I'd just like to remind everyone about Emma's Crafty Challenge  this month. It's proving a popular challenge and we're really enjoying seeing all the lovely creations. 

The theme is:

"Butterflies"

Our sponsor for this challenge is Stix2 and they are generously providing a goody bag of their products for the lucky winner. There is a picture of the prize at the bottom of this post.

Both the image and matching paper are from the Joanna Sheen CD Enchanted Dreams which features the amazing artwork from Josephine Wall. I used plain card coloured with Blossom Promarker for the mats. The beige cotton lace is from my stash.

There are several pages of embellishments on the CD and I cut out one of the butterfly sets to add to the topper.

Also on the CD are bookmarks. I took one of the blank sides of the coordinating bookmark and added a verse in MCS.

These are the goodies from Stix2 you could be lucky enough to win.

You have another 7 days in which to enter. Why not pop over to the Challenge blog to see more DT cards for your inspiration.
