Pearly Butterfly. Oh, My!

Block images are so much fun for me to play with, and this particular butterfly makes me so very happy!




The sentiment is from Think Big #7 from Papertrey, and the butterfly and leafy branch are from A Muse's Marvelous Marigolds set. A few pearls set off the butterfly nicely, don't you think?

This Wednesday is Jennifer's turn for the OLW challenge, so click on over to participate! It's  Sentiment-a-Mania...meaning that you should use a sentiment that is the focal point or carries equal weight with whatever image you use. My card above doesn't quite qualify, I think, as that pearly butterfly really does steal the show, so I'll be working on this fun challenge tomorrow...and know exactly what sentiment set I will use!

I will be commenting on all the OLW64 cards and will announce a winner of the fabulous A Muse give-away sponsored by Krystie Lee on Friday. Many thanks to everyone who played along!

Up tomorrow, I'll post my Thankful Tree. Wednesday has been a very productive day in my cleaned-out craft room.

  4. It's a really lovely card. Changing the font and the color of the last word really enhanced it.

  5. Beautiful composition on this, love how you stamped the word "you" in the same color as the butterfly, just perfect!

  6. Beautiful card! I like using solid images, but they never "ink up" as well as yours do. I've tried erasers and roughening the stamp as well as different inks. What is the magic combination that makes them work so well for you?
