just hovering...

Hi girls
This is my second post of the morning so please scroll down for my Polka Doodles card and info for the challenge this week.
It's also time for a new challenge over on Totally Papercrafts and our hostess with the mostest  this week is Wendy  who choose our theme of 

THINGS WITH WINGS

We're also welcoming two new girls this week.  So please give a warm welcome to

Our sponsor this week is the lovely Teri of

...and the lucky winner will receive a $10 gift cert to her store.

So here's my effort using her  Butterfly  and Thistle  image.  Well being Scottish I couldn't really choose anything else could I?


I decided on a tag this week for a change so reached for my First Edition papers to start off with.  Am getting a bit frustrated with the cards at the moment for some reason.  Anyway, I've coloured with copics, prisma pencils and stickles although the fab sparkle isn't showing too well in the pic.  You can blame the dull Scottish weather for that one.
A couple of die cuts, a flower, a little jigsaw piece which I stamped the sentiment on, ribbon and a few gems finish it off.  Oh and lots of ink around the edges:)
So, there ya go.  Please pop over to the challenge blog for bucket loads on inspiration and of course to welcome the new girls.  Don't forget to play along too.
Have a smashing weekend
