Just Playing Around....

Hello!  Thank you for stopping by.  I am not one to make New Year's resolutions - they are like campaign promises.  They sound great at the time but when it comes to follow through the promises do a face plant.  But I am very much trying to not be so impulsive and a band-wagon with my crafty purchases.  I am telling myself I have to use - really use what I have before I make any new purchases.

So with that said, my card features the Simon Says Stamp stamp set called Beautiful Day, I think this was in the April 2018 kit.  The sentiment is from a card kit I purchased a very long time ago from MFT Stamps.  I don't think it's available anymore.  The layout is from a sketch at CAS(e) This Sketch.  I also made it for challenge group I belong to on Facebook called I'm Gonna Use My Stuff 2019 Challenge.  If you'd like to join the group, please head on over.

I cut a panel from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White card stock using a stitched rounded corner die from Pink and Main.  I stamped the leaves using Moss Green ink by Hero Arts and then using a couple of Prismacolor colored pencils and Gamsol I colored the leaves.  I stamped the butterflies using Hollyhock ink (Simon Says Stamp) and Blue Yonder (MFT stamps).  I colored the butterfly bodies with a black Gelly Roll pen.  The paper is from an old paper stack and the sentiment I heated embossed with Hero Arts white detail powder.

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a great day!
