Yeah, the sun is out!


Morning ya'll! I'm not southern at all (my mother in law is from Alabama but I don't think that counts) but I am so happy to see some sun today that I just had to throw that in. Of course it is suppose to rain again for the next 5 days but I will take what I can get!

Today's card is for a friend who just had some oral surgery done so I thought I would make her a little card and pop it in the mail. This image is from Zlatoena on etsy, enabled by Jeanie at The Spotted Chick who also did a card but with a different bunny image.

I have used a spellbinders die for both the butterfly and the sentiment cut out, then I washed over the patterned paper on the butterfly with some twinkling h2o's so it has a little glimmer then added some liquid pearls down the center. The antenna are flower stamens. The blue die behind the sentiment is from MFT. The inside of the card says "You're feeling better soon"

Ok, need to go and make my card for next week cause the Ladybugs are having a blog hop and these designs are VERY different from what we normally have. Make sure you come by Tuesday to see what we have in store!
