Cardmakingbird

Hey there, everyone! Today is a special day for me because it's my first DT posting for Southern Girls Challenges. In case you haven't heard of this Challenge before, it was started up by Louise and Tracy, who are both New Zealanders and it's aimed at encouraging crafters down under to enter challenges (on most challenge sites people are not eligible for the prizes if they live down under). But of course, anyone worldwide is welcome to enter and there are two prizes - one for those down under and another prize for international participants. The first challenge went out on 9 September but I'm on the other team, so I've had to sit on my hands and wait until my turn came around today!!! The challenge is 'Recycled Jewellery' and so on my card, the two butterflies hanging on some chain were from a necklace that I actually managed to break the very first time I wore it (I was quite wee'd off about it at the time, but it's come in handy now, eh!) I'm also going to enter this card into two 'Anything Goes' challenges at Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge and A Spoon Full of Sugar. OK - so here's my card:

Ingredients: Image - Digital Delights by Looby Loo coloured with promarkers, Paper - Cosmo Cricket Delovely, Ribbon and Flowers - Papermania, Butterfly on chain - Topshop!! Gems - from stash. Also used - Cuttlebug and nesties.

I really hope that you'll take part in this challenge because last fortnight we had an amazing number of entrants and it'd be great if we could  get the same number (or more!) again. I hope you like my card - leave me a message and let me know where you're visiting from! TTFN.
