Lace and turquoise

 Just like to say to all the people that are taking part in the Craft Barn calendar challenge a big thank you for all  the lovely comments that you have given me and this week please take pity on me :-) this page is pretty dire!! but really did struggle with the Lace and Turquoise(can't even get the spelling of the word right!) theme.Actually until I found the lace vellum paper was going to give it a miss So here it is, used lace vellum over the turquoise card and that made me think of weddings don't know why,and before I knew it I had added pearls and flowers and butterflies and because you couldn't see the butterflies in the photograph very well added the smaller ones to make them stand out a bit and more.Then a bit of bling - can't have a wedding without bling can you ...and that's it.Lets hope next weeks challenge is a bit easier hee he x
