"Why couldn't it be 'follow the butterflies'?"

On these gray midwest winter days, some butterflies are desperately needed, just because.




And give yourself ten points if you read the title of this post in your head in Ron Weasley's voice.

The move is going well, but everything's taking longer than anticipated. My craft room hasn't been touched yet, but I hope to get it over to the new house on Monday. Internet won't be up and running at the new house until Wednesday afternoon...gack! Needless to say, my normal posting schedule will be resumed as soon as possible, but not as soon as I would like. Thank you for your patience!

Happy New Year, everyone!

Supplies
stamps: Papertrey Modern Basics, Paper Tray
ink: Memento
paper: Papertrey white
accessories: none

  7. My goodness--another Modern Basics stunner. Good luck with the move and happy new year. I'm so happy I stumbled upon your blog this year. You have inspired me and taught me so much already. I was in Staples last night, thinking of you, as I bought a giant roll of plain white paper for next year's gifts.

  8. Another great card from this set. Egad, I can't believe you've made me really consider buying this set that is so not-me. But how can I say that when I love everything you've done with it? And I do! These colors together are just beautiful, too.

  14. Another super card! It is gloomy and rainy here in IL. We need butterflies or sunshine ... or better yet, just for the white stuff to fall and make us happy! :)
