you're amazing....

Hello friends!!  A quick post with a card I made for the current JUGs challenge that uses the current Deconstructed sketch.   Haven't done a JUGs challenge in ages!  Not entirely sure why other than by the time I get around to thinking about doing the challenge it is over!   But this time I was determined that I would get something made before the challenge ended.  The challenge this week is to make a project based on a beautiful inspiration photo.  I was pretty literal in my intrepretation, I think.



Anywhoo... for my card I used the Taylored Expressions set "Make it Amazing" and the card stock and papers are from one of my Taylored Expression Key Ingredients kit (I don't remember which month).  That particular kit came with a pad of 6x6 papers from Echo Park, the This & That line.  The butterfly was stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black, colored with Copic markers and die cut using the matching TE butterfly die.  The little twiggy branch was also stamped and die cut using the matching TE die.  The zig zag piece was die cut using a die from My Favorite Things.   I finished off the butterfly by adding a bit of Diamond Stickles to the body and wings.

Thanks for stopping by...

Supplies:  Cardstock:  Bazzill smooth cream, textured coral and green; PP:  Echo Park; Stamps:  Taylored Expressions; Ink:  Memento  & Stampin Up!; Copic Markers; Dies:  Taylored Expressions & My Favorite Things.
