Four challenges and an Engagement!!

As it says in the title , I've managed four challenges with this card:

Whiff of Joy No 71 - Easel Card
Friday Sketchers No 94 - Sketch ( of course!)
Sweet Stamping No 18 - Spring (spring flowers, pastel colours)
Ooh La La Creations No 49 - Anything goes (Also Ooh La La as it is my niece, La, who has just got engaged!)

Image is one of the divine new Norma Frickel stamps from Whiff of Joy-I love them so much!!  Coloured with Distress Inks and I used the BG new papers - Kioshi and Green at Heart - again these are absolutely fabulous. 
Tulle is from Quixotic Paperie as are the pearls on the butterfly (Martha Stewart). Flowers are from Wild Orchid and ribbon is from stash.  Oh and the cute little Bee Happy sentiment that comes with the image is cut out using the Stampin Up window punch.
Many congratulations to Charlotte and Alex - looks like we've got a Christmas wedding to look forward to!!
