Nail Art Sort Of

Good Morning All

I hope you have all had a good weekend, I have, I've been busy making lots of cards as I have been asked to do a stall at Easter at our local English bar to help the local under privileged  people.  As my stock of cards is very low I need to get busy as it is only 5 weeks away, on Good Friday.  In the last couple of weeks I have given nearly all my cards to the two charities that I support here, Animal Aid and  Stoma Support group.
Also, I have been accepted onto Hobby Cutz Design Team which will be great fun.  I am on team 1 and John next door is on team 2, so that should be fun.
My first challenge is on 6th April.

**************

The card I am showing you today is made from some stuff that Linda from Animal Aid gave to me to.  She often rings me to ask if I can use items that she has been given and she cant sell on her stall, so I do try to make use of it when I can.

She gave me this stuff for Nail Art and I thought I could definately use that on cards etc.  The gold flakes, I thought, were like gilding flakes, which I have never used but thought it could not be too hard.

I cut a large butterfly with a Marianne die from double sided sticky paper, stuck it onto a scalloped circle then brushed the flakes on with a paint brush.

So good so far!!!

I matted onto a larger circle and added another, smaller, Marianne die cut  butterfly, a Mei Flower fluorescent butterfly, Bitty blossom flower, ribbon and sentiment.

All mounted onto embossed card matted on pink.
As you know, I dont like to waste anything and when Linda rings to ask if I could use something she has been given I dont like to say 'no'.  I think it looks pretty good do you?  I know I shall be using the gold again and there is the same amount of silver too.
