Sketches {by Tamara}

Sketch #95 over at Sketches {by Tamara} was a challenge as I am still suffering from brain fug. There is something I'm not happy about but can't put my finger on it. It didn't look finished and so added the 2 corners as I felt there was too much space on the pink...this may be the mistake!
Still, to craft when your mind is dull is not a bad thing as long as you can accept the finished piece as something worth showing.
Ingredients :-
Paper - Basic Grey 'Offbeat' and 'Sugared'

Another lovely challenge blog here, and #88 is to follow the sketch for a lovely circular card.
Used my CraftPro to cut the circular card and the paper which is misc. from my stash. added a piece of misc. pink cotton lace at the fold with a lilac organza bow at the top and large button brad from Eyelet Outlet at the bottom. 3 Prima 'Larkspur' flowers with flat-backed pearls added to the centres were positioned on the paper and the clear sentiment stamp by Clarity/Imagina was inked with Versafine and stamped at the top of the paper. Dare I say that the white zig-zag is a peel-off. To add a bit of bling I dotted Stickles glitter glue in Icicle to the butterfly wings and a couple of aurora borealis gems to the ends of the antennae.
