Morning guys, can you believe it's the 1st of March already? I can see that this year is just going to whizz by at this rate - blink and you might miss it!!
I'm back (AGAIN) today with a brand new challenge at
HECK OF A CHALLENGE
and today we have a lovely theme of
Butterflies and Pearls
As long as there at both on your card/creation somewhere - it fits!!
Here is what I came up with
I used my favourite Tilda from last years releases (I have so many now I'm getting confused - most unused!) and I also did a bit of masking with a Magnolia background stamp. The pretty papers are also last years, On The Bright Side from MME. My pearls are in the form of pearl sprays and my butterflies are a tiny punch and aslo there is a butterfly charm tied on.
Pop over to the main challenge blog for all the details of the challenge, news on the prize you can win and lots of pretty amazing inspiration from the DT.
I love that I got time to play with my Magnolia stamps this week, I promised myself I was going to try harder this year to use my favourite things and I was starting to feel really guilty about buying new ones when I have so many I haven't used - ironic that I made a card using one of the few stamps I had already used!!
Thanks for stopping by again today, I've been a little preoccupied and only dropping in and out of blogland lately - I hope to change that soon!
Love 'n' Hugs Laurie xx

This is so so gorgeous Laurie, love the stamp of course, but your layout is just so beautiful.Feeling much better now, even went out for tea with my hubby and had a DESSERT!! It was heavenly lol and pain free.
Despite the wings and butterflies I love this card, fabulous papers and spoiling us with not only one fabulous flower display but two. Brilliant colouring as always.
I am going to shock Lisa by entering this challenge with a butterfly on my card, don't tell her lol.
Have a great weekend.
