Birthday Butterfiles

I was going through my posts here on the blog and came across this one that was still in a draft...I never got around to posting it and it got lost in the shuffle...I originally wrote this in April! I thought I'd go ahead and just post it right now, what the heck, right?

Whew, there's been an abundance of birthday's in my family lately. For my sister's birthday card I knew I wanted to try and incorporate everything she loves...blue, butterflies and flowers. She's not really a girly girl, but has some seriously girly tendencies. Not sure what the difference is, but she tells me that there is one, lol! I wanted her card to be bright and full of fun, just like her :)

She's as smitten with DeNami's new butterflies as I am and she's not even a stamper!! For the coloring (blues) I used generic colored pencils and a little mineral spirits. I used a Tombow marker for the green

  1. This is GORGEOUS! I love the blues (in colors, not music) and the mixture of stamps you used are spot on. I'm sure your sister will cherish this card for a long, long time. :)

  3. As someone whose favorite colors are green and blue, this card definitely does NOT give me the "blues." It makes me very, very happy indeed!
