Make It Monday #286 with Stephanie - Coordinating Card Pairs.

 

First of all, I want to say I am so excited because my BFF is coming today for a week's visit.  We haven't seen each other in person since last summer.  Colleen is up here for her granddaughter, Lilly's  VB tournament.  Yeah can hardly wait!!!

I kind of went to town today on this technique.  I wasn't sure what would look good but decided to try all three of these sets to see which I liked best.  I figured as long as I was embossing, I might as well emboss all at once.

Addicted to Stamps & More #225

 

It is so nice to have some new challenges besides Christmas and winter ones.  

When I saw ATSM I immediately thought of butterflies.  Love that when it happens.

I also got the rest of Catherine Pooler's party collection inks yesterday and could hardly wait to use them.  They are simply amazing.  One time stamping to get these bright images.  Love them.

And this was on Linen paper which is sometimes hard to get a good image the first time.  I used PTI's Butterfly Dreams one of their oldies and Swoosh sentiment.  The flowers are from CP's Amazing Floral.

Some PPP sequins and Perlen Pen for the middle of flowers and butterflies.  Yeah, less than an hour to come up with this and finish it without having to start over.  That is unheard of for me.

Here is the inspiration photo.

Thanks for stopping by.
