Happy Hump Day Everyone!! It is Wednesday and time for another Flutter By Wednesday challenge!! For today's FBW challenge it is open for you to do whatever you want. We just ask that you use a butterfly, fairy or angel. Check out the details on the FBW Blog.
I was challenged by a dear friend to make a layout...I have never done one before! I enjoy pictures and paper crafting but just never tried one. It was a little comfort zone but I did it!! Woo hoo!! I had some sweet pictures from Easter of my girls so I made a layout to frame it.
I used Anna Griffin Paper (Isabelle) and a digi from Greeting farm called Chibi Lolli. The gorgeous glittery Prima butterfly I got from Stamp and Create here. The Easter sentiment is from ODBD Easter Blessings set which I framed in the Fancy Tags die from spellbinders. I then added some stitching and pearl flourishes from ZVA Creative and wa-la done!!
I made this card for yesterday's CC266 Blushing Coral Rubies using an Inky Impressions Image - Nikki's Birdie and some retired SU paper (unsure of the name). The layout uses the Die Cuts r Us Sketch for this week. The Lace trim is from Joanne's and the lace is from Wright. I water colored my image with SU markers (ruby red, crushed curry, blush blossom, and cameo coral- all of which are retiring this year- boo hoo!!)
other challenges:Stamp scrap doodle - Birthday

Pollycraft Monday Challenge- pink and brown plus yellow or green (my layout with pink, dark brown, and green
Cupcake Craft Challenge- Childhood memories- both bring memories- nursing a hurt bird as a child and dressing up for Easter
