the Fluttering into 2011 hop
It’s the first Wednesday of the new year and it’s time to welcome back the Flutterby Wednesday challenge! We are opening the year with a blog hop and a new challenge! We hope you’ll have a chance to join us this week. We are also welcoming four new FANTASTIC design team members: Anna, Jennie, Kristie and Peggy! Ladies, we are so happy you are joining us and can’t wait to see your fantastic creations!
Now if you are already on the hop you should be landing here from the fantastic Kimberly’s blog.
For my card for this week’s blog hop I am combining this week’s challenge of using a butterfly, fairy or angel with Verve’s Viva la Verve January week 1 sketch.
This card was so fun to make and very simple. I really have been having a lot of fun lately branching out a bit and doing more stamping and designing and a bit less coloring (don’t worry – I’m still a colorist at heart, I just like to play with other method’s).
For this card I used last year’s My Mind’s Eye Be Loved paper and Verve’s Blue Skies stamp set along with a Martha Stewart butterfly punch. The papers are inked and stamped with Brushed Corduroy distress ink.
Your next stop on the hop is Anna’s fabulous blog!
We look forward to seeing you around the Flutterby blog this year!
