Hi all hope your all having a fab weekend I've had a brilliant one lots of fun with my friends an plenty of craft ..anyway back to the subject in hand "buddy's challenge" myself an elaine (cakecoffeecraft.blogspot.com) last year decided to motivate each other by doing a weekly challenge .. This week elaine chose the theme of peel off stickers .. So here's my attempt 
I've used graphic45 sweet sentiments paper as a backing simply used a peel off butterfly which I've coloured using my water pen an distress inks die cut it out an run the ink over the die to make the topper .. Quite simple really but still pretty I think .. Anyway hope you like it thanks for stopping by its much appreciated
