Magical Mondays - Things with Wings

Hi Everyone!  I was asked to choose the theme for the Paper Cupcakes Magical Monday's Challenge this week and as I am a lover of all birds and butterflies I couldn't go past choosing to include something with wings on your project.  It can be something winged in the main image or an embellishment. ie. Fairy, Butterfly, Bird etc. on the card.  


I have gone for a bit of a distressed look (used my paper distressor around the edges) with this one,  choosing some more vintage oriented colors/papers and the Gorgeous Sunday Afternoon Image from Paper Cupcakes.  I have also broke out my SU Pastels/Chalks for this one, so my coloring is a bit distressed also.......lol.

For my things with wings I have the adorable goose on the main image and three butterflies which I have stamped using Unity Stamp Co KOTM stamps.

So for more winged inspiration be sure to head over the TIMITA Blog and checkout all the wonderful DT Creations and we would love for you to play along too!

I am also entering this card into the following challenges:-
Vintage Elusions Cards and Crafts - #5 Distressing/Anything Goes Challenge
Crafty Card Makers - Challenge #74 Winged Things
Tammy's Scrapping Corner - #26 Anything with Wings
Quirky Crafts Challenge - #18 Recycling on the Farm (Have Recycled Leaf from Christmas Centrepiece)

Sketchy Sundae's Topped with Cream

Today's card is combining the Day 349 Super Sketchy Sunday's Challenge over at 365 Cards and the Paper Sundaes Sundae Bar Challenge #107 where you have to use at least two of the following to create your card -  Cream, Blue, Distressing and Pearls.


I thought the four options from the Paper Sundaes Challenge together would make a wonderful wedding card, and I got to use these cute as a button cream ribbon flowers I purchased a while back.  The Cardstock is Stampin' Up!'s Very Vanilla and Baja Breeze whilst the paper is from Echo Park For the Record Collection.  The Dove Stamp is from Paper Pleasure Plus, the Sentiment is from Stampin' Up! and the Brackets Stamp is from my stash of lots of different clear stamps that I no longer have the packaging for.  I have lightly distressed all the paper/cardstock edges with my scissors and inked with Tattered Rose Distress and what every combination of darker colour was left on my sponge.  I have used Not Quite Navy and Marina Mist inks from Stampin' Up to stamp my sentiment and sponge the background of my die cut oval and brackets.

Thanks for stopping by.
