Welcome to Wednesday!!
This month always flies by but seriously....the 18th already. Spring is right around the corner folks. Here we go ...my share for you today.
I loved the stripes in the DSP so I thought why not add some more. Out came "Stylish Stripes " embossing folder and I put the white and the red through. The white the same direction and the red the other just to add some more texture. The "Hello" sentiment is from the fabulous Regarding Dahlias stamp set.
And a close photo for you to check out the butterfly. The Paper Stack "Stacked with Love" from the Occasions catalogue is filled with lots of great designs and colours. The little dots here are so cute don't you think !
And by the way the Butterflies Framelits rock!!! If you haven't added them to your wish list , you may want to do that. I know they had been on back order..... pretty good indicator of their popularity. And I have made the shopping easy for you at the end of this post. But now...on to the inside of the car. Keeping the stripes going I used the long "stripe" from the Butterfly Basic Stamp set to add some interest and then stamped the greeting.
Here is the sketch for this week...play along , see what you can create. Have fun.
And for the links to all these goodies here you are. But if you have any questions or want to book a party please contact me. I would love to meet you and your friends.

Such a pretty card Shelagh! Love the spickled butterfly. I never would have thought to use that spickeld paper to die cut the butterfly. It works brilliantly!

Love your butterfly, such a neat idea using the paper stack.

Just Beautiful, Shelagh! Love it all! The paper you used for the butterfly gave me an idea. I could spritz color onto the cs then cut a butterfly out to resemble what you have here. Those tiny dots are way too sweet!
