ABBA Challenge

Thanks so much for all the comments you left on my Blog Hop entry. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, check out the next post.

This post however, is the result of a challenge over at Home and Scrapped. The challenge was to use an ABBA song title as the title of a layout. We also had to use blue glitter to give it more of a blue eyeshadow feel to it.

Here is my attempt... I hope you like it.

Christening Card

I can't believe that it has already been a fortnight since I last posted. Where is the time going?

I made this card this morning for a Christening that we went to earlier this afternoon (nothing like last minute). I've only just bought the Butterfly Prints set and matching punch (I resisted for as long as I could, but finally caved in) and couldn't wait to use it. You can't see it in the photo, but I've punched the butterfly out twice - the stamped image then layered it onto a punched piece of Sage Shadow cardstock. I only attached the two pieces in the middle so that it looks like the butterfly is flapping it's wings.

Stamp Sets: Butterfly Prints, Garden Whimsy, Fresh Cuts

Cardstock: Pretty in Pink, Sage Shadow, Very Vanilla

Ink: Pretty In Pink, Sage Shadow, Basic Gray

Punches: 1-3/4" Circle, Butterfly

Other: Clear Rhinestone Brads
