Gilded Butterfly

Hi All
I treated myself to a Craftsy online class.
This one was 21 techniques with favourite supplies.  It was good to go over some of the techniques again and learn some new ones.
For this card I used Distress Inks Tea Dye and Vintage Photo and an IndigoBlu Butterfly which I added Gilding Flakes to.
Sentiment is from Chocolate Baroque.
Very shiny IRL, but difficult to photograph.

Entering in IndigoBlu All that Sparkles Challenge

Thanks for looking

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

I'm a bit behind in our monthly Christmas Card makes on Chocolate Baroque.
So here is the September prompt - Walking in a Winter Wonderland. I have also used the colour scheme so that I can enter into the CB Monthly Challenge.


I used the Damask Reindeer Set and Terrific Treescapes.
Distress Inks used - Black Soot, Hickory Smoke, Mustard Seed and Picket Fence. These were spritzed with water  and cover with scrunched cling film.

Thanks for looking

Chocolate Baroque Challenge 9

Hi All
Just a little card made for the current challenge.

Current Challenge

Beautiful colours this month.


For my card I have used the colours on the topper, but I have printed off a gorgeous download from Leslie as the backing.


Apologies for quality of picture, I am still struggling with my camera phone.....keep forgetting to buy new camera batteries. Card is coloured with ProMarkers, the butterfly is coated with Glossy Accents and the daisies have been covered with Crystal Stickles.

Thanks for looking

Chocolate Baroque Challenge 8



Hello, it's time for another colour challenge at Chocolate Baroque



For my card I have been experimenting with the Bokeh effect which is popular at the moment.

I used a variety of Distress Inks and Brilliance Inks and a stencil I made on my Silhouette from a blank piece of stencil material. Stamps are from Patchwork Butterfly and  Pretty Poppies.

Whilst I had my stamps out I had another play with the colour challenge.

Stamps are from woodland Dreams.

Thanks for looking again,

Chocolate Baroque Challenge No 7






 Finally found time to have a play with this months colour challenge. 
 I have used stamps from Steampunkery and some homemade sprays. The lovely green has an interference mica added and has come out rather blue in the photo!
Added a stencil to the card base and a die cut feather.
