Challenge Reminder – It’s a Special Day
by Lisa Elton

Hello and welcome! It’s Lisa here today with a reminder that you still have time to play along in our monthly challenge. The theme is INSPIRED BY NATURE. There are so many incredible items in the shop to use for a nature themed card. I’ve paired our beautiful Nordic Whisper Butterfly with the delightful Dandelion Stem.

I cut a piece of patterned paper from MB with the largest Scalloped Pinpoint frame die. It was adhered to a white card base using liquid glue.

A simple sentiment from the now retired Birthday Banners stamp and die set was added with black ink.

Here’s a close-up of those amazing Nordic Whisper Butterflies. Aren’t they pretty! Mine were created with our Black Glossy paper, white cardstock and soft gray cardstock. They were added to the card along with a pair of Dandelion Stems cut from white cardstock.

Looks like a spring day in nature to me, how about you? I hope I’ve inspired you to play along with us this month. You have a chance to win a gift certificate to the shop if you do!







Looks like just the kind of day one might catch a glimpse of a few butterflies to me, too, Lisa! SO summery!

Love that buttery yellow patterned paper, and how striking the gloss black is against it. Such a beautiful card, Lisa!
Absolutely gorgeous card, Lisa! Love those black and white butterflies against the yellow background.
As if the yellow wasn’t fabulous enough, you then added the amazing butterflies and dandelion stems… beautiful!
Lisa such a beautiful combination of elements. Especially love the yellow black and white together. So striking.
These butterflies are beautiful and fit perfectly with the dandelions and pretty background paper!
Oh what a beautiful card, Lisa! Love the yellow patterned paper with those gorgeous black and white butterflies! The dandelions are a fun element!
