First of all, to those who haven't entered for a chance to win my blog candy (a $50 gift card), you only have five more days. What are you waiting for? Don't you want to win $50?
I’ve been promising some fun for the first challenge on the new Flutterby Wednesday blog, haven’t I? I sure hope you aren’t disappointed! It’s a blog hop!!!
Welcome to our fluttering hop!! We are so excited about our NEW Flutter By Wednesday challenge blog and our ‘new’ fluttering creations. If you just dropped in to see me, please flutter back to the beginning of the hop at Danni's blog. I don’t want you to miss a thing because I know all of the Flutter Byers will have some amazing inspiration for you along the way! If you get lost, you can always flutter back to Danni's blog where a master list of Flutter By Blog Hoppers is listed.
Our challenge this week is “new” – as in the new Flutterby Wednesday challenge blog! Take that word as literally or figuratively as you like as long as you use a butterfly, fairy or angel on your creation.
I’ve had and used the MS butterfly punch for awhile now but I recently purchased the medium/small combined punch so I decided to use it for the “new” challenge. I attempted to make it look like the butterflies were all flying up from the bow. Since I created this card several weeks ago before my trip to Utah, it’s been so hard to not create another card using that punch for all this time!
All of the paper (except white background) is from SEI Chocolat. I CB embossed the background and tied an organza bow around the whole thing adding a couple of stick pins for the antenna.
Now that you’ve seen my card, flutter on to the next stop, Harriet. I’m sure you will love what you see there. She always creates amazing cards for FBW. Well, I have to say, Harriet’s cards are always beautiful!!!
****************************************
But before you go . . .
Today is also a new challenge at Just Buggin’. Today’s challenge is “Stamping Fun” – use stamping on your project as well as a Cricut cut. You can make anything you'd like as long as it fits with the current challenge. The creations by the design team are posted each day of the week so check every day for inspiration. My day is Tuesday so I’ll be posting my creation on Tuesday.
Blessings,
Christine
