Love You Butterfly from Scraps

Happy Monday, friends. I hope you had a great weekend and are looking forward to see what the new week holds. I have been enjoying all the sneak peeks from CHA. My wish list is ever growing, and I haven't even seen everything that's new! It's a good thing I'm not here. It makes it easier to resist getting them all :). Valentine's day is coming up, though, and I always get something crafty as a gift from my hubby. :).

Speaking of Valentine's, here's a card for one of my girls using some scraps I found on my desk. I stamped that frame awhile ago, back when TAC still existed. It was cut with a Spellbinders die. I have updated a newer version that Layers of Color is selling at a huge discount now, in preparation for the transfer of some of LOC designs to a new stamp company. The butterfly is a Hero Arts digital download.
Love You Butterfly
I colored the butterfly with Copics to match the gorgeous paper from My Mind's Eye. I'm entering this to the Lily Pad PP Challenge. And since this card represents what I think is my true style (simple shabby), I'm entering this to the SSIC Challenge as well. The sketch is inspired by Card Patterns #150.

    Love this Nina - the rich colours in the dp which you have brought out in the butterfly and bow - and those wee tags are just fabulous.
    Blessings
