A new challenge over at Flutter By Wednesday!

Hi all!  Before we get on to the new challenge over at at Flutter By Wednesday, I can now announce that the ever lovely and uber talented Amanda of Cats, Cards and Copics has permanently joined the team!  Welcome Amanda honey {WAVES}!!

Okay, so on to this week's challenge which is an..
 
Open challenge 
Don't forget your butterfly, fairy or angel!


Regulars to my blog will know that I am a massive fan of Michelle Perkett Studios digis so this week I used Ashley the Autumn Sprite...



She's totally sweet and thought she'd also be appropriate for a Xmas card.  I matched her up with papers from the BasicGrey Wassail pad and My Favorite Things dies.


We are also joined this week by Guest Designer Jessica Diedrich who is another hugely talented lady so you won't want to miss her gorgossity for us which you can see with the rest of the gorgeous DT creations over at the Flutter By Wednesday blog!


I used this month's sketch over at A Sketch For You To Try...



 
I am entering my card into the following challenges:
