Butterfly Girl

This is one of my favorite cards currently. I am the worst when it comes to collage. It does not come easily to me at all. But I like this one. The embossed "metal" on the right side are actually metal-look stickers (Mrs. Grossman), that I ran through the Cuttlebug with the swirls embossing folder. Then swiped a red staz-on inkpad across the raised design. The girl's coat is colored with chalk. I just like the way it turned out.

I got to get together with some fellow stampers this past weekend, and we had a blast. We each brought a dish to share, and a project to make, and we stamped from 10 til 3. I really needed to recharge my batteries creatively, and I think that did the trick.

Today is my oldest granddaughter's 11th birthday! I was there when Rachel was born, and it certainly doesn't seem like 11 years ago. In the delivery room she grabbed hold of grammy's finger and her heart.

Talk to you again soon...
