Silver swirling wings

This card is for the sketch for Cards and things 70:

As soon as I saw the Inspiration challenge on In Style I knew that I would make a card using BG Lilykate papers, but it's taken till now for me to get around to making it (the last day of the challenge - typical!). Anyway, this is the inspiration picture for In Style Inspiration:

I stamped Funstamps swirling wings directly on to the green patterned paper with Brilliance starlight silver and heat embossed with clear powder - unfortunately, it doesn't show up too well here - and the Birthday Greetings looks a bit dull, whereas irl it's light and silvery. The scalloped strip was cut on my rotatrim.

It also uses the colours for Stamp away with me colour cue 13:

The card has quite a lot of green on it, so I'm linking for these challenges:

Card cupids: green card
Sentimental Sundays 46: let's go green
Created by hand: green/#4
Penny's 48: going for the green
Meljen 49: green - a little or a lot
Creative card crew: show us some green
Stamp insanity 50: holy Guacamole! - anything goes, add a pop of green
Speedy the cat (Mark's finest papers) 46: lime green andd gray, one layer

This is also for:

Basic Grey 39: wings
Going grey with Scrap-creations: anything goes
Crafty purple frog: fly away with us
Cupcake 133: up in the air with optional green
Delightful: delightful butteflies
Flourish timeless 109: butterflies
Alota 54: it's all about bugs
Fun with shapes and more 78: happy birthday
Aly's: anything goes
Simon says: anything goes
