Sarah Hurley Challenges 'Fireworks and Bright Colours'

By sparklingblackrose
Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well! Sorry this is a little late on but I am still feeling poorly-its gone to a mouthful of ulcers now so I am very uncomfortable and is making me miserable-but I am determined to be positive and try to get through it as soon as I can! Cue lots of mouthwash and soups! ;-)
Here I am for the 'fireworks and bright colours' challenge at Sarah Hurley Challenges and I chose to use the fabulous 'Fairyland' kit available at Sarah Hurley's etsy store here. I chose a bright paper, then used Shimmer card and tiny flat magnets to make a double sided magnetic bookmark to keep your page safe!

I would just like to share that my Dream Valley Autumn Wreath is showcased on Maria's 'Inspire Me Fridays' post today, thank you for choosing my project Maria!

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Creative Stamp Friends: Clean and Simple
CD Sunday Challenge: Beautiful Blue
Gingerloft Challenge: No colouring allowed
Totally Gorjuss: Things with Wings
Anything But a Card Challenges: Anything But a Card
Ladybug Crafts: Monochrome
Papercraft Junkies: Things with Wings
Flutterby Wednesday: Open
The Paper Shelter: Anything Goes

Thank you for looking and for all your lovely comments :-)

    Who doesn't love butterflies? This is a darling card. I used to get the mouth sores so often, but don't get them anymore. I hope you are soon feeling better, and they go away never to return!
