Pile It On! Challenge - For or From a Mum

This week at Pile It On! our challenge theme is:

'For or from a Mum'

Our sponsor for this challenge is:


The prize from Bugaboo Stamps is 7 free digis!

I started by inking a piece of white card using 'Old Paper' Distress Ink, the I stamped my Hero Arts 'Magical Background' over the top in the same ink. I stamped the butterflies (from the 'Social Butterfly' set by Penny Black) in Distress Inks (Dusty Concord, Stormy Sky, Bundled Sage & Old Paper), then added die cut letters (cut using my Cuttlebug 'Olivia' alphabet).


Here are the challenges I've piled on:
For more inspiration from my lvoely DT buddies, please pop over to the Pile It On! Challenge.
