Picture Perfect Creations #60-For Auntie Nern

This week at Picture Perfect Creations we have a pretty colour combo for you to try!  It is soft and delightful!!  The best part is the chance to use Elegant Eggplant, I just love that pretty colour!

I decided to ink up Nature Walk set and En Francais, two of my favourites!  I wanted the background of the card to be subtle so the butterflies popped!  I used my Stampin' Write markers in Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz to ink up the floral image.  The butterflies are actually stamped in Concord Crush by mistake!  Argh!!  I had both purples on my desk and grabbed the wrong one!!!  Only I could do that!!

 

This is for my Auntie Nern who had a pacemaker put in on Tuesday.  She is doing very well and I am happy to say she is on the mend.  We think this pacemaker is going to make her feel so much better.

Thank you so much for stoppping by!  I hope you get the chance to head over to the PPC Challenge Blog to play along with us this week!!!

Friday Mash-up #21 and Pals Paper Arts #71

This week I am the Guest Designer over at the Friday Mashup Challenge Blog.  Yippee!!  Terry has a great sketch for you to try!!  I just love it and decided to break out a new stamp that I have had since the summer but have barely used!  That stamp set is called "Butterfly Prints" and I paired it up with my Extra Large Butterfly Punch!!  Yep, this is not a Christmas Card!! LOL!  I did not add ribbon as the sketch suggests but instead used my new Ribbon Punch!! I also made this card using the Pals Paper Arts Colour Challenge!  What terrific colours and perfect for my butterfly theme! 

Well here is my card!!  I hope you like it and that you get the chance to play along this week!!  I would love to hear from you, so please leave a comment if you have a moment.  Please visit the Friday Mashup Blog and to the Pals Paper Arts Blog to play along with their great challenges this week!!!  I can't wait to see what you create!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Paper Players Challenge #13-Anything Goes!

This week at the Paper Players we are saying "Anything Goes"! 

This week we would like you to link up any new creation you make starting today through to Saturday.  This is your chance to share some of your work!  You are welcome to combine challenges...we just want to see and celebrate your work!  Please use any stamping product you have.

Today I am sharing a card that I made for the Pals Paper Arts #57.  I loved the sketch they offered! I also used the colours from the Colour Throwdown #107 which was to use So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz, Rose Red and Pretty in Pink. 

I inked up the newest butterfly stamp set called "Butterfly Prints" and punched out the butterflies with the Extra Large Butterfly Punch.  I used some of the awesome Pear Pizzazz DS Paper from the Hostess Level One set and embossed the pear Pizzazz card stock with the Fine Details Texturz Plate!  The grass is from the "Inspired by Nature" stamp set.  I added some So Saffron with my Scallop Trim border punch and the sentiment is punch out with the wide oval punch and mounted on a tag from the "Lots of Tags" die.  I also used some of the new Basic Rhinestones to create the bodies of the butterflies.

Come on over to the Paper Players this week and link up any paper creation you would like to share!  We would love to come to your blog and see your work!  To link up your card, please click HERE.
