Take 3

Well my life definitely took over this week and this is the first time I've been anywhere near blogger since Monday so I apologise for no commenting or crafting....I think it's going to be like this for a couple of weeks :-(....

Anyhow, it is Saturday and I've managed to sneak in my craft room for a short while as I have some commissions I have to do before I'm off to Doncaster and Lincoln until Tuesday. This weeks Less is More is Take 3... and Lady and Diva LIM have asked us to use 3 of the last challenges in 1.  I've chosen:

1. Week 11 [Apr 16th] Theme Acetate
2. Week 22 [July 2nd] Colour Shades of Blue
3. Week 16 [May 21st] Theme Butterfly/Butterflies
But it covers so many more of them.... Here it is....

I'm not that happy with the sentiment placement and the photo to be honest so I may be back later in the week... if I can manage to leave work at at reasonable time lol....

Card Recipe:
Acetate: Stash
Pearl Blue: Anna Marie Blueprint Paper
Sizzix: Tim Holtz Butterflies
Papers: Pink Petticoat ( and out of my scrap draw too...)
Seam Binding: The Ribbon Girl
Button: Stash

I've now got these orders to do....

Have a great long weekend...
