Flutter by Wednesday time!  The challenge this week is to use the following formula:  



L= 2 or more layers, 
O= Odd number of embellishments, 
V= use the color violet, 
E= use any color except red


Here's my card.....

My card is 5.75 x 5.75 with a violet American Crafts cardstock base. 


I matted my butterfly pattern paper with white cardstock. 


My strip of white cardstock is embossed with the Cuttlebug.


My three heart embellishments are foam hearts that I found in my stash. 
 Who knows where they came from!


There is no red on my card!


Check out Flutter By Wednesday and link up your own card!


Have an awesome day.

The challenge at Flutter By Wednesday this week is open, no restrictions as long as it has something that flutters.

This card is A2 size.  My image is from S.W.A.L.K., colored with copic markers.  I used a nestabilities die to cut the image.  The butterfly is a $1 stamp from Michaels and is popped up using foam tape.  The sentiment is from Stampin Up.

This card will be donated to Operation Write Home.

Have an awesome day!

Flutter By Wednesday Challenge #187

Happy Friday!!  Yippee!  I'm so looking forward to the weekend.  Hope I can get in some serious crafting time.

Here's my entry for this week's Flutter By Wednesday Challenge.  Sometimes when you design a card in your head it works out better than planned, sometimes it doesn't go as planned.  This one didn't go as planned.  I love this butterfly set by Fiskars, but looking at the card now it seems like the black ink is too bold.

Thanks for looking and have an awesome weekend!

It's open challenge at Flutter by Wednesday this week.

I am going to New Orleans this weekend to go to the A|Muse Studio national conference.  I made this cute arrangement to give to my roommate! (Sure hope she doesn't follow my blog....pretty sure she doesn't. LOL)

All of the products to make this are A|Muse Studio products with the exception of the Cricut cartridge I used to make the popcorn box and the M&M's.

Here are some more pictures!

Thanks for looking!  Have an awesome day.

Flutter by Wednesday #185

Today is a special Flutter by Wednesday for me!  My friend Danni that runs the Flutter By challenges and I have a mini challenge among the two of us.  Last month at our monthly craft meeting we both purchased two bottles of really bright stickles.

Aren't they pretty??  I just love bright colors!  The challenge between Danni and I is to use our bright stickles on today's Flutter By card.

The real challenge at Flutter By for this week is to get rid of the winter blah's and use bright colors.  Here is my card!

My card is just shy of being 6x6.  I used a black American Crafts cardstock base.  I used black because I wanted my bright colors to really pop off.  My pattern paper is from DCWV...two different past sets but amazingly the colors are exactly the same.  My butterfly border was made with the Paper Pups Cricut cartridge.  I used the border feature on the cartridge.  My image is from My Favorite Things Pure Innocence line.  The sentiment came with the image.  (Isn't she adorable???  The sentiment is what sold me on this stamp though.)

I used my stickles on my butterfly border:

and on my sentiment:

and on my image!  (Her hair flower, dress buttons and shoes)

Be sure to stop by Danni's blog to see what she did with her stickles!

Have an awesome day!

I spy a butterfly on this card!  That makes it eligible to enter into the Flutter By Wednesday Challenge this week.  Danni schooled me on what flutters and what doesn't flutter.  Pssstt....a dragonfly doesn't flutter!

The challenge this week is to link a friendship card.  I had the perfect image and sentiment from TAC for this theme.  It hadn't yet been inked, it was time.
