Samantha's challenge

A friend has set a group of us a challenge to creat a card using some bits and pieces she posted to us. I think we all had an 'EEK' moment when the envelope arrived!
In the envelope there was the flower images, the butterfly image, the tag, the swiss dots embossing, the silver brad and a peach flower (now sadly crumpled and chewed by a teething nearly twoyear old!).
I used the papertake weekly challenge sketch this week as my layout. I coloured and cut out the images and matted them onto to some K and Co cardstock. The butterfly is mounted using foam pads to add a bit of depth. I used DCWV matt atack and English Comany papers for the backing papers and added a green prima flower to replace the peach one. Wire is my latest craft purchase so I have put some of that on.

You've given me a great idea here Cathy! I've got both stamps and love how you've cut the stems off the flowers! I will try this now, it looks fantastic!
Love Becky xx
