Hi everyone! I hope you all enjoyed Good Friday - I spent mind with more decorating of the craftroom - it's taking aaaaages! Anyhoo, here today with a reminder of the current April challenge over at the Cupcake Craftroom with the theme of Bugs n Birds n Wings n Things - easy peasy! Here are a couple of quick cards I made for wedding declines using the gorgeous Cupcake, Cards and Crafts Dragonflies papers...
These took me all of 15 minutes in total make - both of them! I felt a bit guilty and thought I'd add some flowers and butterflies, but then I thought - STOP! Less Is More as they say! Still, I think a flourish in the top right corner would have been nice...
I hope you can join in with us this month - you can see all the deets here and you could win your choice of one Cupcake Cards and Crafts paper collection of your choice from the store.
Have a fab day and thanks again for all of my visitors and your lovely lovely comments - they make me feel so good! And I noticed that I'm over 500 followers so I will do some candy soon!
I am entering this card into the following challenges:

ReplyDeletexx coops xx
No, no, no, Mary, now maybe I should add a yes, like the guy on Vicar of Dibbley, enough is enough, purfect (another TV programme for a person who never watches TV) as is.
ReplyDeleteWhy do we always think decorating will be done in a jiffy, good luck, enjoy your break from work, even if you are decorating but it is your Craft room.
