Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #11

Hi!

Okay when I saw these colours I said ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!! A challenge is a challenge so here's my card. I can't tell you how many times I reached for white card stock!!!

MUST_ HAVE_ WHITE!!!!!! ;)

Anyways, I took quick photos this morning.......the first one is in my daughter's bedroom and the second is outside..............where I came into some furry difficulty as you can see for yourself!! My nephews and nieces from Canada named him Max........he's sooo darn sweet but I think we should have called him Curious George!!

.....after a few unsuccessful shots I finally got this one! There is a slight difference in the colours. I like the photo I took outside better.

Anyways for this card I used my Cuddlebug Swiss Dots folder, and I just had to use my lovely Labels 1 Nest. (I got it in the mail yesterday!!). I drew the butterflies and then cut them out. On the bigger butterfly I used one of PTI's Guide Lines Two stamps......and I used Versamark's ink in Dazzle. My sister-in-law brought me some craft goodies from Canada which includes the red flowers on this card. The brad is from Basic Grey................AND the sentiment which I stamped using Chalk Ink in black is PTI's Handwritten Notes that I won on Betsy Veldman's challenge......here's my card that I made for that challenge! I LOVE Betsy!!!

That's it for me!! Lots to do today so I better get started!

Have a great day!

guess which colour?!

today we're going to go buy some shelves for my craft space in the basement.......the basement is still not finished and won't be for some time but it's totally a workable environment (my sister-in-law has her desk down there (she's an architect) our basement has a separate entrance.......anyways, don't have time for details but I mentioned before that I'm moving all my stuff down there and I'm so excited that I'll have a space to do my work without worrying about the mess and kids getting into it all! I'll take picture when I'm all set up.

Can you believe it's July!!!!!!!! I can't! I've been working on some fimo buttons and I'm planning on having another giveaway very soon! I've learned my lesson and doing a few things differently.......like first making the darn buttons THEN posting a giveaway so that when I pick my winners the buttons are all ready to be shipped off right away!
I have to say......it's not a lie when they say 'practice makes perfect'.........while my buttons aren't perfect they are getting better!

I'm using a colour I haven't yet used........can you guess which one???? ;)
