Can you believe we are half way through August already?
It seems that time honestly is going fast and faster
or maybe 'I' need to slow down more!
Well, since it the 15th of the month it means it is
time for a new challenge beginning at Dies R Us
and our theme is a super easy one
Anything Goes.
I have had this die sitting here in my stash just waiting
for it's chance to appear.....
and today is the day!
The die I used is Memory Box Dizzy Butterflies.....
there is a story behind this die but I will tell that at another time...lol
For the panel underneath I used
Tutti Designs Nesting Stitched Rectangles
that I water colored with my Zig pens...look how bright these colors are...love!
Now I could of added to this card, cut extra butterflies and popped them up,
added to the flowers etc....but I wanted this card to be an easy mailer
and I think it is just fine the way it is.
So, pop on over and visit the Dies R us challenge blog and join in with our
super easy challenge....
plus my teammates have some beautiful creations that are sure to inspire YOU!
Entering the following challenges:
Cards In Envy .... Bugs (8/21)
