Grand Re-opening and First Challenge

Hello everyone, we're celebrating the return of Flutter By Wednesdays with a fabulous blog hop by the amazing new Flutter By Team, of which I am very proud to be a member. I've always enjoyed Flutter By Wednesday challenges in the past, as a participant, so it is exciting for me to have been chosen to be on the "other end" as a DT member.


In order to get everyone up and running again, the DT is having a blog hop. Grab a cuppa and settle in for a bit because we have ten wonderfully talented DTers who will share beauty and inspiration with you. After feasting on the lovely eye candy at each blog, we hope you will then flutter on in to your craft room and create a beauty of your own to enter in this week's challenge. The challenge is everyone's favorite--OPEN--anything goes as long as you include a butterfly or fairy!!
If you arrived here from Tara's wonderful blog, you are on the right track. If you get lost along the way or you need to take a little break, you can return to the Flutter By Wednesday Blog ( http://flutterbywednesdays.blogspot.com/ ) for a complete list of blogs.

For my card, I have used a beautiful fairy image from A Day for Daisies. This little image is called "Ladybug and Me." I have printed it off on Copic X-Press It card and colored it up with my Copic markers. I have started with a white card base and on top have a layer of rose pink card by DCWV. On top of that I have a lovely DP from a little 6x6" pad Called Butterfly Garden by Wild Rose Studio. I have also matted my image with the rose card. My pink ribbon is by Offray, and the ecru lace is from Simplicity. My pearl swirl and the three pearls at the bottom are by Recollections.


I hope you have enjoyed my card. I certainly enjoyed making it. Now, on to the blog of the very talented Harriet.



Here is the wonderful Flutterby Team:

I hope you will be inspired to visit the rest of the team's blogs and then to get into your own craft room and create your own lovely flutter card. We look forward to seeing what YOU come up with.

Have a blessed and super fluttery day!
