Sweetie!


It seems like a long time since I last made a post, lol, I've been buried in graphics programs, making paper sets. And then twiddling with them. And tweaking them. And altering them. And fiddling about with dozens and dozens and dozens of settings :D
Here's a piece I made last night, using the wonderful new Sweetie collage set from DezinaWorld and two of the patterned papers from my brand new Fragrant Mint digi paper collection, availabel here. I do have some things in the shop at the moment, but don't buy anything from my section just yet, because there's a 50% off sale goibg on in the store, and the reductions will be applied to most of my sets as soon as the shop Admin have beaten the Sales pixies into submission and got them to reduce my products :D But I would love to know what you think, so please pop along and have a look. Is there anything in particular you'd like to see? Is there a particular size you prefer for digi papers? Any and all comments welcome and appreciated :)
Anyway, here are the challenges that I had in mind while making this one:
Sunday Sketch and Stamp - followed the sketch
Sentimental Sunday - for someone special. The sentiment on here is a freebie from the blog, pop along and check it out :)
The Pixie Cottage - Vintage and/or distressed
Incy Wincy Designs - photo inspiration
ABC challenge - U is for unused stash. I have no idea when I first got the butterfly I used here, but it's been lurking in a folder on my desktop just waiting for the perfect project, and I think this is it :)
Color Throwdown - kraft, old olive, so saffron and baja breeze. Clearly, I've subbed here, but I hope it's close enough to count. The kraft is the brown matting layers, and the other colours are all included in my papers.
Thanks for looking, and have a wonderful day!

Gorgeous vintage layout! I am in awe of anyone that can create digitally because I am a little on the "challenged" side when it comes to that. Thanks for sharing with the Pixie Cottage this week.
