I created this card because I wanted to use a vintage look but with a clean feel. This fits my dear friend Jenny's aesthetic and when I showed her this card she loved it! <br />

I had a great time making it and then things went a little crazy around my house! Adaline turned 1 so we had a small celebration and some cake! It is a nice mile stone although I am a little sad that the time went by so quickly! I can't imagine how my father must feel about having so many grandchildren and the time that has gone by since I was turning 1! I hope he has a great day and I hope all of your special father figures in your lives have a great day as well. Time goes by way to fast!<br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

My oldest turns 12 in May, my middle just turned 8 in March, and the youngest will be 1 in May! They grow up way to fast, but they never lose that baby cuteness! p.s.I sewed their skirts, and dresses!<br />

I had a great time creating this card. I only adhered the bottom of the vellum so as you hold the card the butterflies "flap" it is pretty fun. I really enjoyed this Mojo Monday Sketch this week!!! <span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><span style="color: #38761d;">MOJO290</span></b></span><br />

This is my card for the Create with Connie and Mary CCMC248 color challenge. The colors are some of my favorite. I am totally excited about this color challenge as I was dressing my daughter this morning I was thinking that the color combo on her outfit would be amazing on a card, I will post a picture of her in the outfit later and you will understand my excitement. <br />

Today I participated in the Paper Players Color Challenge. I had a great time creating this card, I really wanted to use the butterfly and so I made a 5x7 size card this time.<br />

Recipe: <br />
Cardstock-Regal Rose, Lucky Limeade, Early Espresso, Pool Party, Very Vanilla<br />
Ink-Pool Party, Lucky Limeade, Early Espresso, Regal Rose<br />
Stamps-Parlor Prints Background, En Francais Background, Teeny Tiny Wishes, Swallowtail<br />
Markers- Raspberry Ripple, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Pink Pirouette<br />
Embellishments- Crumb Cake Seam binding Ribbon(Inked with Early Espresso), Vintage trinkets brads & Safety pin<br />
Tools- Modern Label Punch, Paper Piercer, Paper Snips, Stampin' Dimensionals, Glue Dots, Stamping Sponge.<br />
<br />
I inked the butterfly just on it's wings with the Regal Rose Ink, then I colored the body with the Early espresso ink and colored the highlighted parts of the wings with the Raspberry Ripple marker. Then I huffed on the stamp and placed it. After I got the image I wanted I took Pink Pirouette and colored in the rest of the wing, and Crumb Cake to color in the body, I felt like this gave it some dimension. I hope you enjoy!
