Butterfly vintage children - Freebie celebration!

Hello Everyone!!!  This is really a time of celebrations ;)  When Paulette from Create with TLC saw my post about my reaching 200 followers, being the awesome lady that she is, she e-mailed me asking me if I would like to give my followers a freebie ;))))  Of course I said yes!!!  And me just loving her images I just had to create a card to showcase it lol

Here's my card.  And of course... I tried out different techniques for it lol so took me lot longer than originally intended... oh well it was fun.  I made my own ribbon using a double fold bias that I scrunched up and died with some Tattered angel glimmer mist apple.  I also tried a crackled technique that requires heat embossing that I saw here.
For this card I used paper from Walnut grove pebbles.  I used my long classic rectangle and my nesting oval to cut the sentiment.  I added some Robin's nest dew drops.  I added a heart button and twine from my stash.  And of course my newly made ribbon.

Here's a closer look at the digi colored with my copics and to which I added the embossing.  You can see the little cracks from the new technique.
And here's the awesome sentiment from Create with TLC.
Here's the sketch that I followed to make my card

And here's the wonderful freebie that Paulette has offered for all of you!!!  Isn't she just awesome!!!  Please go to the blog Create with TLC to thank her!!!  You just right click and save
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
  1. Outlawz challenges - sketch
  2. Flutter by wednesdays - Anything goes with fairy or butterfly
  3. Word art wednesday - anything goes
  4. Inky impressions challenges - bingo (I did many of the squares lol flowers, sentiment and twine, or die/punch, sentiment and pink/red or ribbon, sentiment and button ;) )
That's it for this post ;)  Hope you have liked the awesome freebie ;)))  I'm so very lucky not only to have awesome followers but awesome teams that I'm part with some really generous folks.

Hugs

Vicky
