Black and cream

Hello again lovelies, this is my second blog this evening! This one I am entering into http://craftymesschallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/ the theme for this is ribbon and bows! 
I started with cream 8x8 scalloped edge card base, matted with black card which I pierced the edges, I cut an aperture into cream card with Spellbinder largest fleur de lis square then embossed it with m-bossability folder and inked using antique linen DI, added black lace left and bottom, and mounted with foam for dimension, I cut a piece of 6x6 paper from Vintage Attic treasures by Melissa Frances pad, inked using Antique linen and edged lightly with black soot DI, added a beautiful champagne colour bow with button and black hat pins, a button onto the lace, cut a black butterfly with a Marianne die, added black swirly gems! Voila! Thank you for stopping by tonight. I'd also like to thank everyone for leaving such wonderful comments on our show us your twinchies challenge blog which launched yesterday its had a lot of interest, hope you will join in? Xx

Oh my goodness,such beauty! Entirely gorgeous card Zoe! You called by my blog and commented on one of my twinchies,the butterfly you asked about was stamped onto patterned paper,I thought it looked a bit harsh so covered it with a piece of the self afhesive glittery film you can get before cutting it out,a bit blinging don't you think;) x
