Left Of Centre - Challenge #32

Welcome to all my lovely fellow Bloggers, Crafters and most importantly Friends.
I would like to thank every single one of you for your continued support and encouragement.
I know I have changed my way of crafting slightly, however I like to think that I have an even balance between the darker stuff and the normal stuff.

Today see's the Mid-Way Inspiration for Challenge #32 - GIRLY over on the

Left Of Center Creative Challenges Blog

Left Of Center Creative Challenges offer fortnightly challenges. We have a post at the start of the challenge and then a mid-way inspirational post a week later. 

We have a set theme, however if you choose to make something alternative/dark/gothic/punk etc then you can do an anything goes make. 

We have a HUGE amount of AMAZING sponsors and this Challenge is Sponsored by the very talented 

Sassy Studios Designs and The East Wind

Challenge #32 launched a week ago , so this is just a little added inspiration to hopefully encourage you to join in with the fun. This is a nice and easy theme that is open up to your own interpretations. 

You don't have to make something alternative/dark etc, you can make what ever style you want, as long as it fits our themes. 

Left Of Center also has a facebook group, that we would love you to join. This group is to show your Left Of Center makes and chat to like minded crafty people

It was so hard to choose an image to use for this challenge as both companies have so many absolutely amazing images. I had to dwindle them down to my top 5 and then do a name out of the hat jobbie to choose for me. 

I was luckily enough to have chosen 'Aurora' Spring Butterfly, and here she is...

She is totally stunning and my mind just flooded with ideas of what I could do with her.... 

Here is what I made for the Girly Challenge

Items Used:

- Craftwork Cards Paper Pack

- 6x6 Scalloped Card Blank made into an easel card

- Backing bard from my stash

- Ribbon From My stash

- Glossy Accents

- The East Wind Digi Image 'Aurora Spring Butterfly

- WHSmiths Colouring Pencils

- White paper roses in various sizes

- Mica Powder mixed with water to spray flowers

- White Satin Leaves

- White Pear Spray

- White babies breath sprigs

When I saw the finished card, I have to admit I was so happy with it that I nearly cried. I have made so many darker items lately, that seeing something so pretty and flowery and girly really made me happy.
