Autumn Bugs


This is my second card today as I am still playing catchup with challenges after not feeling too well.

Allsorts challenge 20 "Autumn Days"

Cupcake Challenge 59 " Cute as a bug "


I started out with a cream card stock which I inked around the edges with brown and a die cut leaf which I used as a mask.Using yellow,orange and brown ink around the edges of the leaf to leave an image .It looked so pretty I couldn't bear to cover it up completely so I decided to use it as a base for the butterfly .The butterfly was stamped and coloured,the yellow sections were heat embossed to make them shiny.
