Cardmadfairy's Digi Days #4 - Back to Nature

The latest challenge over at CARDMADFAIRY'S DIGI DAYS starts today the theme is 'Back to Nature' With spring just around the corner I'm enjoying getting my floral papers out and putting the odd flower in places where you might not expect them to be! Butterflies and trees with hearts, flowers and even cupcakes in amongst the branches seem to be in vogue at the moment so this is my take on it. The papers I used are by Dovecraft from the Sugar & Spice paper pack. The digi image is one of Jenni's this one is called 'Spring Tree' very pretty on its own or dressed up. To colour the image I used AquaMarkers they give a more watercolour effect rather than the ProMarkers which are a bit more solid in colour. It is the first time I have used them I do like the way they blend. If I remember correctly the stamp I used for the sentiment was a freebie from a craft magazine. There is a little bit of recycling too, the raffia came from the packaging of a candle.

Our sponsor for this challenge is the fabulous Bugaboo Stamps There are loads of fun digi images in store personally one of my favourites is JJ I have used her to great effect in the past and have my eye on a couple of other digi images.  Anyway the winner of challenge #3 will win 7 digis from Bugaboo Stamps thats a new image for every day of the week!

Thanks for visiting my wee blog I hope you will pop over to Cardmadfairy's Digi Days and have a look at what the rest of the DT came up with, hopefully you will feel inspired and join in with our 'Back to Nature' challenge.
