card for sketch 124

Don't forget to chime in with a  comments  poll for blog candy on my post from Sept 24th - just click there or scroll down to see the previous posts if you are in a reader or on my blog.  For ever 25 comments I will pack up another bag of NEW stamp sets from the past and present to give away!   Tell your friends to come and comment too so I can get a good idea of what everyone likes and dislikes when it comes to linking to products used on projects. 

I have lingered on this sketch for so long because I was actually using it for a swap that I am in - but I can finally release it! Not that it is some big hairy secret or anything!

 

Be sure to leave your linky and grab the code for your blog too!

I was inspired for this card by a card you can see here.  I just loved the way the butterfly popped in the orange on the blue green background.    That set is one of my fav's - Happily Grateful - the leafy background alone is so useful!  I embossed the ivory card with an impressabilities - Floral and Stone - love that added texture.  To get the graduated color from Cote D'azure to Burnt umber I just used 2 different sponges and started from opposite ends.  I like how soft it is and it does create a nice background for the butterfly.  I colored the butterfly with 2 copic markers - Y38 and YR68.

So the specials are all over tomorrow people!   If you did not get the mini of Happily grateful you are gonna be sorry and wishing you had - it is just $2.95 with your $30 purchase so you can get the big set and a few extra's and then get the little one too!   If one of your other goodies is Swooping Sentiments - you get a FREE Sydney Circle Album kit too! 

The $75 starter kit for new angels is a specTACular deal!  You get 5 stamp sets and 3 packs of paper plus all the business supplies and me as an upline!  :-)  If you have one party every 3 months then you meet the minimums and can purchase all your supplies at a discount (received in commission check twice monthly)  You only have til tomorrow though so if you are thinking about it get on it girl!  You can download the paperwork here!
