Dia daoibh!
Well, would you look at that! It's November already, and I'm back from my holidays! The suitcase is unpacked, the washing machine is working harder than a kettle at an Irish family gathering, and my lovely holiday glow has been replaced by fifty shades of Irish winter pale! But sure, there's nothing like a bit of crafting to soften the blow of returning to reality!
And speaking of crafting, it's time for Ally's Angels Challenge #112, where the theme is, as always, Anything Goes!
I reached for the gorgeous Stampin' Up Swallowtail stamp and coloured this magnificent butterfly with my trusty Promarkers, choosing warm yellows and oranges because I'm clearly refusing to accept that summer has packed its bags! I used the off the page stamping technique, letting those beautiful wings spread beyond the panel. A few foam pads gave the butterfly some lovely dimension, while the sentiment comes from Sizzix. I finished with a few splatters of pewter Distress Ink for a little sparkle and drama. And would you believe it? I actually stopped there! No ribbon, no mountain of embellishments, no glitter explosion. Someone check my temperature! 😂
Now, do flutter over to Ally's Angels Challenge #112 and join us! With Anything Goes, there's plenty of room for your crafty imagination. And don't forget to admire the fabulous creations from my fellow Design Team members. The talent over there is unreal!
Right, I'm off to put the kettle on and pretend the radiator is a Mediterranean beach. If anyone asks, I'm still on holidays!
