CD Sunday Challenge - Butterfly

Hello

Hasn't the last week gone by quickly?

This is my entry into this weeks' challenge over at CD Sunday, the theme being Butterfly.

I love this pattern from Stitching cards, which I stitched using metallic threads and then added the sentiment. Now for the part of my card that uses a cd - the insert.

This is from Joanna Sheens's In Other Words cd-rom, this is one of the first cd's I bought.

Thanks for visiting my blog today, have a lovely weekend.

To The Moon and Back

Hello and a warm welcome to my blog today.  A big thank you to everyone who has stuck with me through my long absence.  I am trying my best to get back to regular crafting but am still having some issues with my health.  I don't want my hobby to turn into a worry or a bind, so I am going to take it steady.  To ease me back in, I am going to post once a week, if I manage more that's a bonus.

What better way to get back into the swing than to participate in the CD Sunday challenge.  This has always been one of my favourite challenges, and I love that it gets me using my cd-roms more.  So I am going to join in with the challenge each week again.

Here is my card:

Forever Friends Retro Collection cd-rom used for the decoupage, backing papers and moon and star embellishments.

Gold linen card from Create & Craft used for matting.

I used the remainder of the backing papers on the inside of my card:

I would like to enter my card in The CD Sunday Challenge - To The Moon And Back.
