| Hello Friends!! How are you today?? Any time to get inky?? I finally had some time last night and it was wonderful. A special friend of mine is turning 50 and she’s celebrating it in a very cool way. Virginia is linking up all of the cards that her friends design for her!! I think this is so much fun & hope you can check it out here. You might be able to tell what a big heart she has plus she’s been a great friend to me!! I am blessed to call her a friend. There’s so much more to say but, words are not my forte so HAPPY BIRTHDAY sweet VIRGINIA 🙂 |

I truly enjoy working with these die cut butterflies from Spellbinders. I embossed this sentiment with clear powder on white paper. I layered up some scraps from a card I was working on for next week (and hopefully my first video) The butterfly has a layer of vellum and I used this paper from Bo Bunny for the layers and the butterfly. Ranger’s Rock Candy was applied to the butterfly and while it was drying I created the flower with twine. I cut the butterfly in half then, glued it down under the flower with Glossy Accents. ( sometimes I do things backwards usually cause the idea comes in your head after something is already glued down. )  Here is another card I created with one of these butterflies.

| Have you heard of Goosebumps? Finally I had time to play with it. To me it’s like spray on Glossy Accents that has a texture to it. LOVE it..you can sort of see it on the butterfly above. The edges were cut with more Spellbinders and the black sentiments are from SRM stickers. I hope you find the joy of this season this weekend. Thanks so much for your visit. Hugs, Kathy P.S. In this post I was giving away a Copic book and some white paint. I would like to wish a big congrats to  Neha Jain!!!  (I’ll email you tomorrow)   Stay tuned I will have more giveaways soon.       |

It looks like I AM the lucky one to be YOUR friend!! Thank you, babycake, for making this stunning masterpiece!! It has a TON of gorgeous details–the colors, shimmering effect, the vellum, the layering of the butterfly…too many to mention. You are simply amazing in every way! I cherish our friendship! HUGS to you, sweet Kathy!
Lovely card you made for Virginia. She really is special and sweet and so are you Kathy:)
I can’t tell you how encouraging it was to read about creating backwards…..thank you for that. I love that twine flower & the way you ccreated the background. As for the goosebumps – doesn’t it give a lovely furry texture to the body of the butterfly – so “real”.
