I can never think of a title lol...

I hate trying to make a title for my posts when it includes so much LOL. I have some more cards I would love to share with you. I still cant believe the weekends over, boooo, back to work :( lol i dont want to.


This is a card I have had pictured in my head for awhile and finally got around to making it. Isn't this butterfly from Hero Arts just beautiful? I love it. You can find it HERE. I love the way it came out, sometimes whats in my head doesnt always come out as I pictured lol. I will be entering this into the Card Style Fun and Cute Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.


Card Recipe:
Paper: PTI kraft, hawaiian shores, vellum
Ink: Versamark
Other: Rhinestones, Pearls
Tech: Heat Embossing

Next is a card I did for the Embellish Magazine Color Challenge with Ric Rac. The hardest part of this challenge was incorporating orange into the card. The challenge colors are Kraft, Brown, Teal and Orange. I really struggled with the orange.

Beautiful cards today, Jenny! I love what you've done with the Artists Butterfly! It's really fun to see you use different colors on a card. . . turned out so pretty! Good job on the orange!

Girl, you must have some small and sharp scissors to do this paper piecing work! It's fabulous and I love both cards! Good luck and great job!

hey Jenny,

Have you gotten your stamps from the Mad Hatter yet? I got that email saying he was going to send them out in a week, but I think that was about a month ago and I haven't gotten them, but didn't want to ask if you hadn't gotten them either and they were still backordered. Let me know! :)
