Butterfly Basics

Hello there!  Phew!  It has been a busy, busy week around here! Seems like every time I sit down to make a card something comes up and I get side tracked!    I did finally close the door to my stamp space today and put together a little card.  I honestly do find that my day is a happier one if I spend a piece of it creating.  It doesn't even have to be a big project.  I think it is more about the being creative and using the other side of your brain!  Good stuff! Here is my little creation today:

My card base is Always Artichoke and my layers are Pink Pirouette and Whisper White.  I used the stamp set Butterfly Basics to stamp a collage style background and the main flower image.  I added a strip of the Tutti Frutti DSP along the side edge.

I did a lot of layering by repeating the card colors.  I used the Lots of Labels Framelits set for the middle Pink Pirouette piece.  I went back and forth (You should have heard me talking to myself!) about whether or not to include a sentiment on the front of the card and finally decided against it.

Here are all of the goodies I used to create my card today:


Have you made time to create something recently?  I highly recommend it!  It is sooo good for you!  I am off to tackle some more of my To Do list!  Enjoy the day!  I will be back soonest with more to share!
