CAS is the way forward ...

I keep thinking if I practise more CAS will be easier ... hopefully!!!

I have had ths Penny Black stamp set for ages, just not got round to doing anything with it.  I stamped the butterfly out using distress ink, cut it out and then liberally misted it with pearl glimmer mist - I wanted some 'veining' of the wings.  I embossed the white cardstock, and added a decorative corer and some ribbon.  I cut out the oval and stamped a swirl, before adding the butterfly.  Finally a double bow and some flat backed pearls to fiish it off.

 Sugar Nellie have released some new digi images, and they are just a bit gorgeous!!  I coloured this one in using copics before cutting out using my spellbinders.  Beth helped, so it is a simple layout.  She cut the flowers and layered them up, adding some pearls.  A bit of ribbon and the sentiment to finish it off.
