Hey!!! Mr. Postman

I have had such an amazing couple of weeks with some fabulous news.   I applied to become a Design Team member for the One Stitch At A Time Challenge blog and was given confirmation that I had been selected with two other applicants to join the already existing fabulous team.  It really is exciting seeing how things are done behind the scene <g>.

So what is my first task as a new DT member?  The challenge is:-

Challenge # 152 - Use a Digi

The Sponsor of this Challenge is OSAAT:

With another fantastic prize.... 1 lucky winner will receive a full set of digi images as used by our DT in challenge #150.... So at least a $20 +

Phew, not too difficult, but then a total brain freeze (think we all know what that is like).  Well, I did apply for this new venture to get myself 'out of the box', which is often where I find myself when creating without a purpose.  After a while I see patterns setting in and can't get away from them.  With the 'brain freeze' it is obvious that I was 'out of the box' :).  Anyway, this is what I came up with - hope you like it.  Now over to you, how about popping over the the OSAAT challenge and joining in . . . . . . .

Rercipe:-

• used an unusual digital stamp for me by Tami (Gingerloft), called 'Butterfly Letter Collage', available from Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps.  
• mount cut on my Black Cat
• with all elements created and cut it was time to assemble.  
• layers  assembled using foam tape and attached a white ribbon through the mount.  This was then stuck to the card with foam tape so I would have a really three dimensional look. 
• Finally I added SWALK (got to have Sealed With A Loving Kiss) on the back of an envelope, how cheesy is that (or am I just showing my age <g>), a white organza bow and finished off with Stickles on the butterflies and leaves and an orange gem on the bow.
• For the inside of the card I designed a paper which had the same lace pattern as the front of the card.

That just about sums it up - hope you like the end product :)

I am entering this card in the following challenges:-

• Alphabet Challenge Blog - A for Anything With Wings
• Sweet Stamping Challenge - Mother's Day or for a Special Lady
