PATTIES CREATIONS DESIGN CHALLENGE #28 : ANIMALS OR INSECTS

It's time for another challenge at Pattie's Creations Design Blog, and this time your creation needs to feature an animal or insect.



I chose the gorgeous butterfly image from Pattie's Etsy store to work with, and used one of my favourite sentiments (created in Word Art).


To create my card I tilted the image slightly and then printed the image on bright yellow cardstock. Copics was my medium of colouring and I added a little gliter glue for some added bling.

Two offcuts of co-ordinating designer paper were added for layering, and three acrylic flower-shaped rhinestones served as the embellishments.

Pattie has some fabulous images in her store, depicting animals or insects, so it should be too difficult to find one just perfect for your creation!

JUST REMEMBER, if you use an image from Pattie's Creations, you will get an extra entry to win!

Stop over at her Etsy Store and browse around. There are FREEBIES too.

    Jen - I love this card, it focuses on the image which is beautifully colored. Keeping embellies to a minimum is what I like a lot with this card, it's not overdone!
    Hope you are feeling better too!
