Hi lovely bloggers! Can hardly believe two weeks have passed since my first GDT spot with the lovely ladies at
DU2DS. Thanks to everyone who joined in the fun - there were lots of stunning entries.
***
So, onto another new Challenge, and this one requires the addition of some METAL!! You can interpret this any way you wish - maybe add a charm, some metallic card, old coins - you get the idea! A digi image should also be included on your project and full details can be found by clicking on the above link.

For my GD card I have used the beautiful Butterfly Catcher image from
Chris at Sketching Stamper. The image has been coloured with Copics, then layered onto a sheet of copper craft foil. I have used a dressmakers tracing wheel around the edges of the foil and the white card. I really wanted to keep it quite simple, so as not to detract from the image.
The cardstock is SU Sage Shadow, and I was lucky enough to find exactly the right shade of satin ribbon at Duttons for Buttons in Ilkley! (If you're ever in West Yorkshire and you need buttons - that's the place to go)!!
Have a great weekend - love and hugs, Sylvia xxxxxx
PS: If anyone knows why these two photos are jagged around the edges when you click to enlarge them, I would love to hear from you! Thank you.

no jaggy-ness for me either just a fabulous card! Love the image and you've done a lovely job with your dressmakers tracing wheel! I wonder why would happen if I used a pizza wheel?? (Lyn)
Thanks Claire and Lyn for letting me know - it's either something weird to do with my bloggy thing, or something to do with my dodgy eyesight!!
Lots of love - Sylvia xxx

Hi Sylvia. What a stunning image, I just love her and you've coloured her beautifully. The copper seems to highlight the colours even more.
