Butterfly Bear

A card for Cute Card Thursday where the challenge is 'soft furnishing' where such things as material, buttons, ribbons etc can be used on the card. I've watercoloured the little Penny Black Butterfly Bear with distress inks and matted on blue Bazzil card. The background is Pink Petticoat big spots paper with a piece of the blue bazzil embossed with Swiss Dots in the cuttlebug and tied with blue ribbon and a gem. I sponged all edges and over the dots panel with weathered wood distress ink. The sentiment is from a woodware set and I added a blue button tied with some red cord. TFL.

Back soon,
Chris
