Happy Wednesday everyone!!!
I am very excited as I received my order from the Occasions Catalogue and WOW I love it all! And also Sale-A -Bration is in full bloom as we say. So I scooped some very special things free!!! Now who doesn't like that.
So here is my share for you today...
I used the Stamp Set Butterfly Basics for the Sentiment only. But....I purchased the bundle so I got the Butterflies Thinlits Dies as well. I just love the lacy look of the butterfly.
I used the Irresistibliy Yours DSP from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue to make the Butterfly as well as the background behind my circles. Check out bottom of the card, it was put through the Big Shot with the Wildflower Meadow embossing folder. Here is a closer look at the circles and butterfly.
This paper is so much fun. I picked up a sponge dauber and went to town with the resist technigue. Then also added the banner with the same paper and sponged it as well. I really like the effect of the ColorBox Chalk Ink....another fabulous product in the new catalogue.
And to continue the effect I placed a little special something inside.
I sure hope you liked my creation today and remember I would love to be your demonstrator. Give me a call so we can set a time aside to have a stamping good time.
Here is the sketch we had to work with. Really had to get my brain going to do this one but was alot of fun.
And for ease of shopping.....here are the products I used today.

Oh, how beautiful!! Great idea to have the paper peeking through the circles on the front. Your butterfly is just stunning and your card design is fabulous!!
