Welcome to the first Tuesday in May. Personally I hope Mother Nature will finally come through with some real spring weather. Here, it has been cold, dreary, rainy for most of the last month. We get a brief day of warm sunshine and then back to cold.
It is time for sketch #705 from Tuesday Morning Sketches
A benefit of cleaning and straightening in the craft room is finding a forgotten bunch of butterfly design paper at the bottom of the heap. I used one of the reverse side for the background and cut out one of the butterflies for the focal point. I picked up the yellow accents in the butterfly to repeat in other areas of the card. That gingham is really a bright yellow. I'm not sure why it is photographing as peach.The sentiment is an old SU! one. Three little gems complete the card.
Inside is another fussy cut butterfly decorating a computer made sentiment.
Hop on over to Tuesday Morning Sketches to check out all the design team cards. I hope you will give this sketch a try and share your creation with us.
So pretty! Love the butterfly!!
ReplyDeleteThat was a great find while cleaning your craft room. and your crd looks great. I love the mix of patterns and that pretty butterfly. Whenever I'm straightening or re-organizing, I find stuff I forgot I had!
ReplyDeleteCleaning? What’s that? Haha, I really need to do that too. I think the yellow gingham looks bright yellowy and your whole card is just so pretty - that butterfly looks so realistic and gorgeous + the added touch on the inside of your card is so nice too!
