UNSCRIPTED BEAUTIFUL BLOOMS / USSIS #51 & PDCC #25...


Yep - it's Saturday!!! You know what that means ~ time for another awesome sketch challenge over at Unscripted Sketches!!!




I know, this is a pretty dark card for me, but everyone has a special 'goth' friend that this type of card would be perfect for, right? Well, maybe I'll just send this one to Abby Sciuto...
I paired today's Unscripted sketch with the super fab colors from the Play Date Cafe... all they wanted was a 'splash' of color... that's all they're getting from me - lol!

I ASSURE YOU, at some point I WILL get tired of these dies from Papertrey... just not yet, okay? I ordered another set of their flower dies a couple nights ago... YAY! I cut this flower out of vellum, 2 of each of the 3 sizes. After I secured them with the brad, I puffed them up a little. When I reorganized last weekend, I realized I had both of the Martha matching butterfly punches... which gave me 3 sizes to play with. I added little rhinestones for their bodies. I finished it off with a scrap of ribbon & a little jewelry tag...

Hope you have an awesome Saturday & don't forget to lay along with Unscripted this week!

  4. This is absolutely gorgeous. I love the pop of color, the vellum flowers, and all the butterflies.

    And I for one, don't mind if you keep using these dies. It is on my to do list to case one of your other cards using these dies. Thanks so much.
