Bugaboo Birthday Party - Bling It Up

I so look forward to this week-end, I've barely had any time at home this week, not much time for crafting, blogging and relaxing! I hope to catch up with you during the rest of the week.
Yesterday after work I had a 3 hour course in providing first aid. I've always wanted to know more about that, it was very interesting and I think I learnt many useful things, hopefully I will never need to use it though.
My fourth card for the Bugaboo Birthday Party is far more gentle to the eye colorwise than my last two. I've used purple as my main color, it's one of my favorite colors to work with.
The DP is from Maja Design, I've used both sides of the same paper, one side for the stitched panels with butterflies and the other side for the die cut panel with birthday greeting. The image is from Bugaboo and can be found here.

This card is for these challenges:
1) Catch The Bug - Birthday Party Bling it Up
2) Created With Love Challenges - Winged Things
3) Through the Purple Haze - Pick Your Favorite Color (Purple)
4) Glitter n Sparkle - #68 Stitching
5) Make it Monday - Anything Goes

    you know I love all things purple! I really like this DSP, so pretty and kind of vintage looking. I am not a major DSP person but this is gorgeous. Perhaps it is the way you have used it that makes it look so fab!

    There's something soft and enchanting about this card. It's almost fairy-tale like. That delicate purple is just perfect.
