Good morning, hope it's been a good week and you're ready for the weekend. I shall be away for a few days from Sunday- my brother suffered a massive heart attack at the beginning of January- thanks to the paramedics and doctors, who were brilliant, he's making a good recovery. He has to take things a lot more slowly but the doctors are very pleased with his progress and he's well enough for visitors. I'm really looking forward to spending a couple of days with him but keeping the visit short as I don't want him overdoing it!
My card today is my DT card for our challenge at Crafty Catz, this week lovely Ginny is hosting and the optional twist is 'Anything but square'.
Our sponsor for this challenge is
I made a circular easel card featuring Butterfly Girl, image coloured with Copic markers, stamped sentiment and butterfly DP from stash. I've fussy cut a few extra butterflies and raised them on foam pads to add a bit of interest and dimension.
As always, there's no need to follow the twist to play along at Crafty Catz, we love to see whatever you are making so just follow the link to add your entries.
Thanks for visiting and have a great weekend
Chris
