to you! I cannot believe that it has been four weeks since I last posted on my blog!! Needless to say, life does take us in different directions at times and I have just not had the time to devote to my card making or blog. And, with good weather now upon us, I am sure I will be out and about more than I will be staying in to make cards!
Today I have a card to enter into several challenges:
This butterfly die from Hero Arts really makes a statement, doesn't it? I cut it from white cardstock and then stamped over it with a polka dot stamp using Ranger's distress ink in picked raspberry. The sentiment was gold embossed and is from The Craft's Meow. I splattered a bit of the ink over the card and added gold sequins from Michael's.
Entering this in the following challenges:
Less is More - use a die cut.
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge - anything goes.
Seize the Birthday -anything goes.
Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful weekend!

I have missed you Joy- and just very happy to know that all is well with you. I completely understand as I will most likely do less art and card making and spending more time outdoors. Beautiful card-love the little spatters:)
Sooo pretty !
