Good evening
Hope you're all enjoying the weekend and the lovely weather we're having in the UK!
I made this card for a challenge recently but didn't use it so I am posting it today and entering it into a couple of challenges.
The stamp (Bella panel by Stamptivity) reminds me of when I was a little girl and when the dandelions had gone to seed we would pick them and blow the little feather like seeds which we called 'fairies' and would make a wish. Oh to be young again!
For the background I used a free download from years ago that I found on my computer and changed the colours to pink and green. The black butterflies are a mixture of vellum and acetate punched with my MS butterfly punch and coloured with a black promarker and pink pearls added. I inked around my stamped image with a pink versamagic chalk ink and matted on to white card which has been cuttled with CB folder Jules Jewells and inked with pale green chalk ink. I added some black organza ribbons some paper roses which are again inked with pink and Prima pink pearl swirls. The sentiment is computer generated font is 'Santa's Sleigh'
I am entering this into the following challenges:

Oh Julie, it is Gorgeous! You are so right, it does remind me of when I was a little girl, and we would blow the dandylions also. So funny, now when we think back on those days. I just love the soft little touchs that you added, darling little flowers, just the perfect accents. Good luck on the challengestoo, missed you yesterday!
