It took all week just to finish this card...I will comment when I get home from work.
Home from work and it is the weekend at last. The only reason it took all week to make this card is because I had to work in 10 minute increments....things just kept interrupting me. I was just going to make the bookmark during my lunch break on Tuesday and then post it that night...colored the tag but did not get time to post it. I used my NEW, BLUE spectrum noir markers to color the design. When I saw the Wed SC I found some OLD dp in the right colors and patterns and decided to use this week's sketch....did not have time to finish the card. Thursday rolled around and still the card sat on the dinning room table in pieces, when serendipity struck again. The WT called for OLD, NEW, BLUE, and BORROWED..The borrowed part is the sharpie markers that I used which used to belong you my sister. Well, everything that could go wrong did go wrong Thursday night, but it turned out to be another case of "SCS challenge luck". The F4A called for die cuts - the butterflies, and the MIX called for using a tag. What a relief to finish and finally post this card. TFL, Francie

Awesome! The colors are amazing, and I love the image you used for the tag. Five challenges in one card? Amazing, and it was SUPPOSED to work out that way!

Francie, I looked at this on my phone this morning and thought I'd wait till I had the computer on to leave a comment... That bookmark is amazing, and I'm glad I waited till I saw it bigger because that's when I saw the little green pearl dots, before that I'd only noticed the blue ones. I do love your use of Liquid Pearls, you always inspire me to use mine. What great serendipity, given your reduced stamping time these days, that all the challenges just added up perfectly for you.

Wonderful way to combine lots of challenges - Love those gorgeous foil butterflies and all the little dot of liquid pearls that add so much texture to this card.
