Two Posts in One Day!

I think this must be a first, but this is my second post today! I am joining in with my second challenge ever this time with Daring Cardmakers to create a card with an Amethyst Theme.  This weeks challenge is sponsored by Craft Obsessions who have a lovely Martha Stewart Butterfly punch and stamp up for grabs.

Now as my birthday is on the 16th of this month I definately know the colour now for the card. This one is for my Aunt who celebrates her birthday on the same day as me!


and a close up



The card is pearlised and has been printed on with a washed background called Lovely by Pink Petticoat. The butterfly is punched with X-Cut dimensional punch and layered onto some beautiful indian paper, this has then been layered onto some pearlised paper which has then been layered onto mulberry paper and then with another bit of indian paper at the back! The sentiment was typed on the computer with Type Upright Font and coloured purple.  I have then added some gems in diamond and amethyst to finish off.

Hope you are all having a great week.

That background paper looks rather lush Tracey; I’m surprised you could bring yourself to actually cut it.
I’m sure your Aunt is going to be over the moon with her beautiful card.

Thanks for joining the Daring Cardmakers this week and good luck in the draw.
