Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #188

Hello!
Happy Wednesday!  I hope you're having a great week!  I can't believe that we are already in the last week of May!  Where on earth did May go?!  My oldest turned 9 last week!  I remember the day I went into labour with him like it was yesterday.  Seems unreal that it could be 9 years ago.

Being Wednesday, we have a great new sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches!  Our lovely hostess this week is none other than the talented Karren Johnson!  Karren makes such beautiful cards!  I love her creativity!

I put this card together rather quickly but I can't say that I'm thrilled with it.  I wanted to do black, white and gold but I realize now I should have used vanilla instead of white!  I didn't have time to go back and try and change it!  I had to add some butterflies because, well, who doesn't love butterflies!!!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Basic Black, Whisper White
Stamps: In a Big Way (Reverse Confetti), Butterfly Basics
Ink: Versamark
Other: Gold Embossing Powder, Butterfly Thinlits, Bitty Butterfly Punch, Basic Pearls, Stitched Rectangles (Lil' Inkers), Dimensionals


Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I hope you'll head over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog and check out the fabulous cards the Design Team has created!  You will not be disappointed!

Have a great day!

Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #185

Hello!
Happy Wednesday!  I hope you're having a great week so far!  We have been having such lovely spring weather!  We even heated up the pool on the weekend so the kids could take their first dip of the season!  They dusted off their golf clubs and hit the driving range too!  I think summer is here to stay at our house!

We have a great new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches courtesy of the incredibly talented Cindy Hall!  I love Cindy's cards!  They always make me smile!  Check out her blog and you won't be disappointed!

I realized that I hadn't tried out my new SU Butterfly Thinlits Dies!  I do love butterflies!  I wanted to keep the card pretty clean and simple.  I used the sentiment from the Butterfly Basics stamp set!  It seemed to fit perfectly in that little space!  I threw on some bling and I was done!!!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Basic Black, Silver
Stamps: Butterfly Basics
Ink: Black
Other: Butterfly Thinlits, Basic Rhinestones, Stitched Rectangles (Lil' Inkers), Dimensionals

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I hope you'll head over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog to check out the beautiful the cards the Design Team has created for you!  You will love them!

Have a fabulous day!
