Going around in circles....


 Going around in circles is a very fitting title for this post! I wrote it yesterday and scheduled it to publish at 9 am this morning...but unfortunately on the wrong blog- what a donut! I thought I was going bonkers when I turned on my computer and the post wasn't there...but lo, there it was, happily smiling at me from the Fab 'n' Funky Challenge blog- just hoping no one noticed! 

Anyway, it's here in the right place now, as you might have guessed it's my DT card for this fortnight's challenge at  Fab 'n' Funky- the theme chosen by our lovely Pat - is CIRCLES.

I had a square panel of card with a green and blue circle in the middle of it left over from a session with the gel plate, so I added a few more circles using a couple of stencils. The stamp is from Aall & Create, there are several circles there too. I added colour to 2 of the butterflies with watercolour paint. 

For more inspiration check out the lovely creations from my teamies over at Fab 'n' Funky

Thanks for visiting today

I just LOVE the arty feel of this card Chris! Amazing and so gorgeous!! Had to giggle at you posting on the wrong blog too, I've written whole posts on Sweet Stampin' and then realised they were meant for my personal blog, so this made me giggle! I so totally adore your wonderful card and the colours! Hugs, Wends xoxo
