FBW Flower Lili in Spring

7:12 AM | Posted by Chris Olsen, Glowbug | | Edit Post

Hi Everyone!! Happy Hump Day!! I hope all are well and having a great week so far!!! Today is Wednesday so it is time for.....another Flutter By Wednesday Challenge!! Woo hoo! This week is an open challenge so all you have to do is make a card or project with a butterfly, fairy or angel on it. Leave a direct link to your creation in Mister Linky. If you upload to SCS or PCP, please use the keyword, FBW. We can't wait to see what YOU create!

For my creation, I used Flower Girl Lili from Inky Impressions and the Friday Sketchers challenge for my layout. The dp is new from DCWV Flower Stack. Isn't it so springy?!!!!! I used
some flourish stamps from SU for my edges. The gorgeous prima rose is from Stamp and Create. I so need to order more of them. I love the colors and the beauty of those primas!! I created the border with a butterfly punch from MS.
