I know, this is my second post of the morning, but I find these challenges hard to resist.
The first SSSS challenge theme is "wings." I figured I'd do something a little different instead of my usual tag or ATC. So, here is a button fairy:
The butterfly wings were cut from Ten Seconds Studio metal with Tim's Fanciful Flight die, then sanded a bit. The "art" face is an Invoke Arts stamp, and it is on a crushed bottle cap. The buttons are just some from my (very large) stash.
Congrats are in order. Understand you won Sherry's necklace. Nice job, hoping to meet you some day on a T!m cruise. I am saving for next year. His cruise is on my bucket list.... have a wonderful day creating and love your button... :)
