Tasty Template

Well I survived the Cybercrop, but really struggled to keep up and managed 120 points, well it was my first proper cybercrop - I tried! My team the Spades seem to have done well and look like coming (I will call it close) second to the Clubs, so well done fellow Spades (and sorry I didn't do more), but I really had good fun, (even though there were a few moments of stress and shouting at the computer!!)
I will post more of my class/challenge attempts over the next couple of days.




Anyway had a chance to complete this weeks Daring Cardmakers challenge. This weeks challenge was to follow a template - and well here is mine!
I had a bit of a greeny turquoise phase today! The card was covered in green paper and then I tore a co-ordinating patterened paper and placed on the bottom section.
The orange is fake ribbon, it's actually paper made to look like grosgrain - well thought I would give it a go.
The butterfly is cut from some scraps of Crafty Bitz scrapbooking paper and the frame is a slide mount covered with the patterned paper, the blue ribbon behind is real!
The message is a stamp on some covered cardstock.

TFL and thank you for the template.
