Do you have a morning routine?
I do. ;)
I feed my pups, make my coffee, and sit down in front of my computer and peruse through my list of favorite stampy blogs. It is such a great relaxing start to my day, and also a great way to get inspired. Recently, I fell in love with THIS card from one of my stamping idols, Laura Bassen. I love everything she creates! Her videos crack me up because she has such a great sense of humor! (I appreciate people with a sense of humor!) I don't case too many cards, but decided to try my hand at a card similar to hers.
I stamped the rows of butterflies using a Stampendous stamp and my Mini Misti. It was embossed in white and colored in a somewhat loosely translated rainbow color pattern. I splattered the background with white and black water colors for a bit of interest. I added a sentiment from JustRite cut on white foam. I added sparkly Stickles to it. The sentiment was stamped on black and embossed on white. I added it to the front panel along with a few sequins.
I know my posts have still been a bit sparse, but summer has been so busy with baseball games, golf, graduation parties etc. :)
Life is good.
I truly appreciate you stopping by my little blog!
Have a wonderful day my friends!
Truly beautiful! Your card is beautiful with the watercoloring, and those gorgeous flowers! Yes, Laura is truly a sweetheart (don't know her, it just feels like you do through her blog)!
