Hello my friends,
Today I am "Guest Designing" at the "Butterfly" challenge"....
I feel so honored to have been asked to be a part of the team for this challenge
which happens to be "Dots and Stripes" and a butterfly of course!!
I really had fun with this card, as I dug out some very old and very neglected
Stampin Up stamps.....
I used three different sets "So Happy, "Seeing Spots" and "Garden Silhouettes"....
I stamped the stripes 3 times using my Dew Drop inks....I stamped the dots
on top and the flower stem on top of those.....
To finish, I added
a piece of lace at the top, a yellow gingham ribbon and a gorgeous butterfly
sent to me by a friend and teammate "Terri"....
I had commented on a gorgeous card she did using some of these butterflies
and she send me a HUGE goodie package of not only the butterflies
but loads of other creative "stuff" as well!!
I invite "you" to join in the butterfly challenge this week...
it is always so much fun there...
and I want to thank the "Butterfly challenge" for having me!!!

Just became your newest follower after seeing this pretty card over at Mrs. A's Butterfly Challenge. Love the cheery yellow stripes on this background, and the delicious lavender flower stalks. That is one gorgeous butterfly perched on the stems, and I can see why you were selected as a Guest Designer. Lovely to meet a new friend and get to know a talented cardmaker. TFS
This is so very pretty Diane and absolutely perfect for our theme this month.
Thanks so much for joining in our Summer Blooms theme at Stamping Sensations challenge.
