This was an absolute beautiful day here in Ontario. The terrible humidity left, the
temperatures dropped to 26C (78F) but with a cool enough wind to keep it very
comfortable. This morning we decided to hit the fruit stands and get some
locally grown fruit and veggies……it’s so nice living in a green belt with lots
of local produce available. One of the fruit stands also sells home-baked goods
and we treated ourselves to a loaf of home-made raisin bread – oh my, was it
good. That and a salad was all we needed for lunch. We seldom ever buy home-made bread which is why it was such a treat.
Today’s card is another experiment that turned out.
I ran a piece of light blue cardstock through an embossing
folder and glued it to the card base. The scallop circle was die cut with a
Spellbinder’s die. The butterfly is a peel-off and it is one of the ones that
comes clear and changes colour when you put it on dark paper….quite often
green. I wondered what would happen on a medium coloured cardstock so I stuck
on the die cut circle and loved it! The banner and bow are from a Little B die
set called Party and then I added the peel-off sentiment. I had a few circles
from another peel-off set that matched so I added three of them around the
butterfly. It not overly embellished but I liked it that way and glad it turned out okay - some don’t!
That’s all for a lovely Tuesday,
Cheers
