Butterfly Blues

I told you yesterday that we were having a great sponsor, didn’t I?  Well, it’s none other than everyone’s good friend, Stef, you know Glitterbabe!!!  10-04-07 Butterfly BluesStef gave each of us a couple of butterfly images to play with so I decided to make a CAS card using one of the butterflies.  For the top of the card I used Core’dinations paper from the Nostalgia stack.  I love this stuff!  The core is a shade lighter than the outside of the paper which gives it such a nice effect when embossed and sanded!!!  And Papertrey Ink’s Aqua Mist cardstock is the same color as the core making it so simple to coordinate!!!  Lucky me!

The challenge this week at FBW is to use sparkle (what else would you think when Glitterbabe is our sponsor) on your creation, as well as a butterfly, fairy or angel.  Now head on over to the Flutterby Wednesday blog and see what our lovely guest designers came up with and then click on the links in the right sidebar  to see what all my lovely teammates made! 

That’s it for now!  Come back again, will ya?

Blessings,

Christine
