Fluttering through the Day

So I have taught today's card a few times this month, all the while apologizing that this framelit was retired because I couldn't find it in the catalog.  And then last night I was looking for a different number in the catalog and there are the Butterflies Thinlits right on page 215.  So I finally can share this card out into the world.  I love it and it showcases our AMAZING Pinewood Planks embossing folder perfectly!

Other perks of this card - it shows off our new Powder Pink color that is a great accent but still a little too light for saying stamping.  That's why I broke out the good ol' Crumb Cake for the saying.  The butterfly is attached to the card using adhesive and then I put the strip of Fresh Florals DSP on the card with adhesive so it would hold down the butterfly.  The saying is popped up with dimensionals.  I like reminding my customers to use their older stamp sets with the newest must haves and this card does that perfectly.

Supplies:

• Cardstock: Whisper White (5 x 1, 8 1/2 x 5 1/2), Crumb Cake (5 1/4 x 4), Powder Pink (5 1/2 x 4 1/4), Fresh Florals DSP Stack (1/2 x 6)
• Ink: Crumb Cake
• Stamps: Butterfly Basics
  Big Shot: Big Shot, Cutting Mat, Precision Plate, Butterflies Thinlits, Pinewood Planks Dynamic TIEF
• Accessories: Triple Banner Punch, Dimensionals, Adhesive

Spreading her Wings - Like Mother, like Daughter

Yesterday was a big day at our house - Calliekins started KINDERGARTEN!  It was a great day and we are entering a whole new era of scrapbooking moments in our house.  I can't wait for this weekend so I can break out the book and my Seasonal Snapshot 2015 kit and start putting together the pages! 

 

Seeing her spread her wings and try something new was inspiring.  We often remember that we are inspiring our children but it's a great moment when we remember they inspire us even more.  I wanted to share something today that reminded me of Callie and butterflies did the trick.

 

Today's cards were again designed by mom, who inspires me every day!  I love the combo of the Watercolor Wings with the Butterflies Thinlits dies.  The English Garden DSP finishes this off beautifully!  I am completely and utterly in LOVE with our Designer Series Papers (DSP) this year!  Plus, the sentiment with this set "The little moments with you matter a lot to me" sums up my feelings about my family every day!

 

Supplies:

• Cardstock/DSP: Whisper White, English Garden DSP, Hello Honey (card 1), Night of Navy (card 2)
• Ink: Hello Honey, Soft Suede, Mossy Meadow (card 1), Night of Navy (card 2)
• Stamp Set: Watercolor Wings
• Accessories: Doily, Gold Metallic Thread (card 1), Night of Navy Seam Binding (card 2), Basic Rhinestones (card 2), Dimensionals, Scissors, and Adhesive
