PTI Challenge- Butterflies

Hello friends! Its been awhile! We had a bout of sickness go through the house. My daughter and I were both down with it for awhile. However, I am back today with a new PTI Anniversary challenge. This one involves Butterflies and you can read about it here.
My card today uses Butterflies from the set Butterfly Dreams.  The leaves are from Turning a New Leaf.  The sentiment is from Big Birthdays (or something like that...sorry!) and the frame is from Fillable Frames Additions.  I messed this card up big time!  It was originally a single layer cream card with only the butterflies layered on.  It was all done and I went to stamp the back with my custom name stamp and completely screwed it up.  I couldn't toss it though so I cut apart the front and layered it on some Spring Moss cardstock.  I also cut out the inside and adhered it to the inside of the card.  All better now!  I leave you with a close up of the little butterflies.  Some are popped up with dimensionals and others are adhered straight down.  Thanks for stopping in!

Long Time...

No write, no stamp, no taking photos. I don't even really have a good excuse. I have been busy getting ready for school to start back up, my kids went back last week as well. Honestly though, I just haven't felt like working on anything. I hate to let my blog sit weeks on end (I hate it when others do that! LOL) but I just dont have anything to contribute right now. Hopefully I will be back at it soon. In the meantime I hope you are enjoying the last of your summer.

I made this a month ago. I think it was for a challenge but then I never got around to posting it. All products from PTI.

Embellish Magazine Color Challenge

Hi there! Wow look at that, two posts in one day! Will wonders never cease? LOL! I made this for the embellish magazine color trends challenge. You can see all the details here. For this card I used a base of Hibiscus Burst. I layered on some Lemon Tart bitty boxes patterned paper. I stamped the leaf on New leaf card and cut it out. I stamped the flowers from Flower Garden on Hibiscus burst card and then stamped them again with bitty backgrounds gingham. I cut out everything and glued it down. The sentiment is from Iconic Images. All supplies are from Papertrey Ink.

Make It Monday: Hand Drawn Frames

Hi there! Yes, can you believe it? Another on time entry for Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday challenge. You can find all the details and the video here.

This first card is my favorite. It was my second attempt. I used Turning a New Leaf, Beautiful Blooms 2, and Floral Fusion.

This is my second favorite. It uses Butterfly Dreams and a sentiment from one of the many fillable frames.

This was my first attempt and while I like enough to give to someone, I dont care for the weird ink effect on the leaves. I wish they were more solid looking. I actually find drawing frames fairly easy but its not something I do a whole lot of.
