PPA 193 Sketch Challenge

Welcome!  I had to ponder this sketch for quite a while before it started coming together in my head.
I love, love, love, the Watercolor Wonder DSP, and the background for the butterflies came from that pack.  I picked up the 2 other colors from that piece of DSP, Daffodil Delight and Island Indigo.

I wanted to use the  larger butterfly punch with the petite butterfly punch on top, however I'd have had to cut my strip and piece it in to use a punch. So, I took the Butterfly die cut from Backyard Basics and used that, then put my Petite butterflies on top.

The Backyard basics is still available as a bundle at the special price until the new main catalog comes out, if you like it, now is the time, or it will have to be purchased as a separate stamp set and die set.

The sentiment came from Perfect Pennants, in the Occasions catalog, you have until June 1st on that one, however, until March 31st, for every $50 you purchase you can choose something from the Sale a Bration brochure. There is some neat stuff in there.

After doing my layering, putting on my tiny butterflies and stamping my sentiment, I sponged on a bit of the Daffodil Delight here and there for some interest.

Pals Paper Arts 185

Well! I really have been away from my blog for a long time.  I just got slammed by Christmas and then a little burned out. But I'm feeling better now and just had to play with this sketch. It's simple, but there are so many ways to use it.  The staff has done a fantastic job with it.   You really do need to stop by and see all the fabulous cards they have created.
Here is the sketch.

Just click the link on the right side bar and join in the fun.

There is a little sneak peek in this card, the Watercolor Wonder paper. It's really soft and pretty. But I love watercolor so it spoke to me. It's in the new Occasions catalog which will be live on Jan 3.

I used Daffodil Delight, Tempting Turquoise, and Whisper White.
Products in this card include, Watercolor Wonder DSP (132994)
Silver Foil

I'll try to post more often now that the holidays are over, at least until my surgery in Jan, then I'm not sure how soon I'll be able to get back to playing with paper and ink, not too long I hope.

Mojo Monday 323 and Sneak Peek Occasions 2013

I decided to make my card a Thank you card, we all need those this time of year. Here is a sneak peek at some new product in the Occasions catalog. Ordering doesn't start for this one until Jan 3rd.

But I am loving all the watercolor product in there, this back ground paper is Watercolor Wonder DSP, also you are seeing one of the So Very Grateful images. I have so many ideas for this one.

I also used the gold twine, wow, it's gorgeous. It does not show well, but it's thicker then the other twine and the gold is very shiny.
There is a Green candy dot holding the Thank you on, if you haven't seen candy dots, you are missing out. They look like brads, but no brad, and they have adhesive on the back side and stick great and are easy to get off the backing.

Here is the sketch for todays card.

Thanks for stopping by, hope you have a wonderful week.
