Been a while since I made something just for the fun of entering a few challenges. Found a little time this morning. DH is on baby duty and took the Kat to town to do some shopping and also so I could get some sleep (been up since yesterday afternoon). Needed to relax for a few minutes so I decided to make this one layer card. Been itching to ink up the new Trendy Butterflies 2 set I designed. I colored the large butterfly with yellow, orange, and red BIC markers and then stamped the sentiment from Noteworthy 2.
I get a bit philosophical when I'm sleep deprived and I think the sentiment goes rather well with that bright, colorful butterfly. You know...in a world full of butterflies (or you can insert whatever noun you want here), be the butterfly that shakes things up, the butterfly that's different from all the rest, the butterfly that dances (or flutters) to its own rhythm, the butterfly that doesn't merely follow the rules of the games but adds something interesting to the game...k, I think I better stop and go to bed :o)
Anyway, I had a few challenges in mind when I was creating this:
- Less Is More #314 - use 3 adjacent colors (mine's yellow, orange, and red); and happy 6th birthday to the good LIM folk!
- Addicted to Stamps and More #227 - Make your mark (I used BIC markers)
- Craft Stamper Take It Make It - Anything Goes Stamping Challenge
Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to smile :o)
