Tuesday Morning Sketches #445 had a lovely sketch by Janice that I wanted to try.
I think I succeeded...what do you think? These butterflies are free flying every which way.
You have to love purple and shades thereof to like this card. Amy would not like to receive this, but I have another friend who will be so happy with Wisteria Wonder (my SU card base). The darker purple butterflies are brads, which I guess are not in style these days. The little silver butterflies are die cut from silver foil using an old SU embosslits folder. The sentiment is from a Paper Pumpkin kit and it was punched with the Pretty Label punch. I sponged it with Wisteria Wonder ink. The DSP is from a First Edition Pretty Flowers 6 x 6 stack.
Thank you for stopping by. See you tomorrow.
I love ALL your butterflies! They're gorgeous! Yes, brads are not the rage right now, but I bet if we hold on to them long enough, they'll come back....so don't throw them out! Maybe you'll start a new trend! I think your color combo is very elegant, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you, LeAnne. I never throw anything out...lol!
DeleteWhat??? Just because I don't love that color doesn't mean that I wouldn't love to get this card. It's beautiful! :) Love the background butterflies!
ReplyDeleteOh, well, you aren't getting this one! Yours was already in the mail!!
DeleteBeautiful card!! I love that you embossed butterflies on the butterfly paper!! (I still use my brads!)
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing along at Tuesday Morning Sketches!!

Thank you, Debbie, for stopping by. It's good to know brads are still in use!
DeleteI love brads, myself! And I love your flutterbies!! Lovely card! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mary! Appreciate your taking the time to stop by and leave a comment.
DeleteWas out of town a couple of days and missed this. Gorgeous! Love all things butterflies, dragonflies, and birds! I use brads. Love them. Who cares if they 'aren't all the rage!' If they are all the rage, I probably WON'T use them! Call me a rebel.
DeleteThanks, Julie...so glad you like and didn't miss it after all! Yes, you ARE a rebel and I love it!
