I have a passion for anything to do with card making and paper. I enter my own world and never like to follow the rules. I will try anything and everything on my creations, I am crazy about flowers. They hold an innocence which can never be bought. Other interests include....... Parchment, Decoupage, Paint-crackling, Crochet and Knitting. I am a married to a wonderful man who supports me all the way and encourages me in what I love to do. We have been married for 19 years and we have one daughter. She is my world.

My submission for the color challenge Close -
http://cr84fncolorchallenge.blogspot.com




 I used the butterfly from SCAL  "In the garden scal2"  from The Scrapping Table.The link is on the side bar. I enlarged and cut it out twice. I then made the roses, cut the leaves. I punched the dragonfly  from a small punch. The heart is cut from board. I edge the card with brown chalk. Hope you like it. This was great fun.

    You've made quite a lovely butterfly with its glittered antennae and body adorned with beautiful red roses. A quick look through your blog shows that beautiful flowers are your specialty - very impressive.

    Hi Bianca, I'm new to your blog and I have to say that your creations take my breath away! Every piece is stunning! I especially like this butterfly because my daughter loved butterflies so much. She recently passed away and every time I see a butterfly I think of her and how beautiful she was (and still is!) - and now, just like the caterpillar turned into a butterfly, that's how she is in heaven. She had so many medical problems, delays and special needs that she couldn't do many things here that she wanted to. Now she can do it all! Your roses are gorgeous - which just happen to be her favorite flower!

    Do you have a tutorial on how to make the roses? I would love to learn.

    Thank you so much for sharing your creativity. I'll be back to look through many more of your lovelies.
