Hi to all,
   Big hugs and thankyou for visiting.
   WELL!   Here is my first card as a Design Team Member for Whimsical Designs.
   I can't believe how nervous I feel...The Challenge on Whimsical Wednesdays is "Time Flies" to make a card or project and include either wings or a clock on it.
   Use your own interpretation of this.
   I decided to use wings (butterflies) no image today as I wanted the lovely sentiment to take centre stage. these wonderful sentiments can be found HERE.
   You will find a sentiment for any occasion I'm sure.
   PLEASE play along with us. I can't wait to see what you have come up with and check out what my DT buddies have created. (We all love feedback)
  





My Recipe for this card is as followed;
Papers DCWV/ The Spring Mattstock
DCWV Cardstock Neutrals
Marianne Createble Fancy Circle
Spellbinders Circle
Spellbinders Impressabilities- Butterfly
Spellbinders- Fleur De Lis Square
Magnolia Sprig Die
Martha Stewart- Butterfly Punch and Border Punch- Butterfly
Glamour Dust
Ribbon from stash
Rhinestones by Hobbyhouse

    Hello Sue,

    Oh I can appreciate how nervous you felt putting up your 1st DT card, it is totally nerve wracking but look at this beautiful card!

    You and Pinky are both so good at decorating the insides of your cards too, they look so transformed when you do that.

    Im so pleased to welcome you to our little CC Club, everyone is so friendly and Im sure you will love it too!
