Yay for Chris (glowbug) - I am so excited for you today Chris! I love everything in your gallery, but as you know, I had to include a butterfly on any card that I cased!! I settled on this card: FBW Inspired by Nature by glowbug at Splitcoaststampers which is entitled FBW Inspired by Nature. (Chris and I are on the FBW DT on Danni's blog)
This summer when I was visiting with my yahoo group BSF's I had brayered a piece of PaperTrey Stampers Select with Summer Sun and Pumpkin Pie and then stamped the grass with Versafine Onyx Black. So I used that stamp off today. I don't have the Inspired By Nature set so I used my Penny Black Blush image and the sentiment from Upsy Daisy. I colored the flower with Summer Sun and Old Olive markers and stamped on PaperTrey Stampers Select. I cut the butterfly from DCWV olive paper with my CB die and embossed it with one of the folders that comes with the die. I finished it off with pearls and a ribbon.
I hope you enjoy your much deserved special week Chris!!
