The DT were lucky enough to be able to choose a digital stamp from the shop to use, now comes the problem could I get the stamp to look right no I couldn't I tried several colour scheme, different papers but just couldn't get it right, then I remembered I had this stamp, A Friendly Game Of Leapfrog, which was a freebie a while ago.

 It's Marks Nan's 80th Birthday on Thursday so I have made this side stepper card for her. I'm sorry the pictures are rubbish but the weather has been wet and grey here today not the best for taking pictures.

 I've used this cute Lili of the Valley stamp which has been coloured with promarkers and some stardust stickles on the butterflies. I have layered and matted the image onto so more lilac card and some white glitter card.

 On the side steps I have used some purple paper from Papermania Henbury Lane layered onto white glitter card. On the bottom step I have tied some organza ribbon which has been coloured with promarkers. The next step has a flower which is made of 2 white Papermania ones again coloured with promarkers and finished with a glittery brad, the swirl is cut on my cuttlebug and the butterfly is 2 layers one from card and one from vellum cut with an x cut punch.

Another flower and butterfly on this last step, I've cut the circles with my nesties the happy birthday are peel offs and the 80 is some glittery stickers from Anita's.
