Since my hubby was gone this weekend at a Men's Advance with the guys from our church, I took the opportunity to catch up a bit on my scrapbooking...so I put myself on a cardmaking ban until I hit my goal! I do my scrapbooking by year, so my goal was to finish the last of 2009...about 25 pages!!! And yesterday afternoon - I finished the last one! So...I rewarded myself by making a quick card last night!
I am entering this in the Inspired Heart Challenge over at Getting Cricky with K Andrews - to make a project about what inspired you right at this moment. The sermon at church yesterday morning was talking a lot about the Resurrection, and that is what Easter is to me! And very little makes me think of new life as much as butterflies!

For this card, I used the Unity Stamp January Kit of the month for the stamped flower border with black Stickles in the centers, and the sentiment came from a stamp in my stash...don't remember what brand it was, but I know I purchased it from Michael's. Added some butterflies that I cut from Straight from the Nest, on the shift key of the phrase feature - covered them with Glossy Accents and glitter. Inked the edges of everything, and finished with some luscious velvet ribbon and stick on red pearls.
Oh I love it and all that glitter...faaaabulous!! :) hugs x
