A special thank you

I was asking to make a thank you card for someone who is leaving our church soon - I think the lady in question is far too busy to visit my blog and see this, so I'm sure I'm safe in showing it.

The current challenge on Karen's doodles is a Bingo choice - choose a line in any direction:

So I chose flowers, die cuts and gems.

The background paper is HOTP, which I covered with acetate with the gold foiled butterflies (I rang this through the xyron so that there was even coverage of adhesive which doesn't show through the acetate. The scalloped circle is a nestie die cut mounted on to gold mirror card, on to which were added decoupaged flowers, with a strip of sticky stitched ribbon at the side and computer generated text mounted on gold mirror card. A few gems on the flowers add a bit of bling. This is an A5 card. This looks much brighter irl because the acetate gives a sheen to it.

This is also for:

Creative craft world: anything BUT birthdays
Anything goes 46: pick of the bunch (flowers)
4 crafty chicks 48: get your bling on
Kaboodle 77: stitching
Little Claire designs 11: things with wings
Some odd girl: thank you
Pixie dust studio 85: what's your favourite colour? I love making cards with shades of lilac or purple

    What a brilliant idea to put the acetate though a xyron machine to apply the adhesive. Fancy having a go at that myself.

    thanks for sharing and thanks for joining in with the Tanda Teaser...it's always great to see you here!
