We Have a Sketch Challenge This Month!
Welcome to a Control Freaks Blog Hop! I’m so glad you are visiting and hope you will find some inspiration from our team. You may have arrived here after visiting with Bree Renwick and once you visit here with me, I will direct you to the next person.
We are all using this sketch challenge today:
I’m so sad that the Best Butterfly Bundle and the Butterfly Kisses Designer Paper is retiring! I love the colors in the patterned paper so much. I used four different patterns on my card today:
I used the diecut for the body of my butterfly and painted it with Wink Of Stella Clear Glitter Brush. It’s so sparkly in person. I also added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels in with my stamped polka dots. The jewels are also retiring after this month.
