All Creatures Great and Small

Did Santa bring you lots of new crafting things to play with?? Don't worry if he didn't - just head on over to Crafty Emma's Store and check out all her delicious goodies.
I was thrilled when Emma asked me to be a Guest Designer this January - and this week's theme at CES Challenges is

All Creatures Great and Small

Check out the blog to see the awesome work of Emma and her DT.
Here's my card


I used these cute lovebirds from Digital Stamp Oasis, coloured with Copics and a sprinkling of stickles glitter.
The bloom is a Making Memories dyable blossom ( pansy)  part of the MM Craft Kit available at CES. I edged the blooms with a blue Copic and then sprayed them with glacier Glimmer Mist, adding a pearl brad to the centre.
The butterflies were cut on my Slice machine ( Parties design card), sprayed with glimmer mist, and I added a centre pearl. Emma has a fabulous collection of these flat backed pearls in her store - here.
I wasn't sure whether to use this card for an Anniversary or a Wedding, so I haven't added the sentiment yet!


DP is Memory Box, Spearmint.  You can also find Memory Box papers at Emma's Store.   Fancy corners are Sizzix, Architectural Accents.
