Cards, Colors and Butterflies

 This is the Easter card I made for my daughter, Sarah. She loves Peeps candy. A friend let me borrow yellow flock to put on the bunnies in the jar. Now they are soft to the touch. I can't wait to see what she says when she gets this.  I made a similar card for my granddaughters. They loved the feel of it.

Our colors today were balmy blue, coastal cabana and tranquil tide. I stamped the stems then the leaves. I stamped the large tulips and cut them out. They were added with dimensionals. I stamped the small tulips then added the sentiment. The sentiment was longer than my punch so I cut a strip of paper as wide as the punch and stamped my sentiment. Then I put the end of the paper into the punch from the top and aligned it, then punched. I did the same thing on the other side. The sentiment was added with dimensionals

Here's the link I followed to complete this card:https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_c...&v=ns8iRHnMnC0     I used extra pieces I had on my desk. This is the front of the card.

This is the inside of my card. I used white, gingham gala and gorgeous grape paper. I wanted a pop of color to go with the flowers so I added grape cardstock.

In June, the new annual Stampin' Up catalog will be available to order from. Here are the 5 new in-colors for 2019-2021.

This a a scene from Brazil. These gorgeous butterflies visit each year. I can't imagine how stunning this looks in person.

How could we not be thankful for all we have? God gives us so much more than we deserve.  Look around and see all that God has made for us.  How can you not believe in God with all the beauty that surrounds us?


Here's a new song by Danny Gokey called, New Day. See what you think.


Blessing of the Day: I got some work around the house done. Tim helped Ben with things at his house. Ben and his 3 year old came to visit while the 7 year old was at play practice down the street.
