Mariposa Stamped Images Holder

Happy Monday! 

Today I'm sharing the first project I created for September.  Yesterday I started cutting apart all of my rubber stamp sheets from Susana's Custom Art and Card Design.  While I've used several stamps I bought from there, most of the stamps I bought on sheets just stacked up (I know shame on me!!)  The ones I cut apart so far have been stamped and then filed into a 3 ring binder (my new method of stamp storage).  I had a pile of stamped images on my desk this morning and decided to make a holder for them using the Slip Cover template from My Time Made Easy.  I made one a few years ago and it's starting to show its age from being toted to crops. 

First I stamped Mariposa from the Eyes of Beauty and Dreams Collections on a piece of Copic Xpress cardstock.  I then stamped the flowers from the Fall Flora Fairies and Spring Flora Fairies collections.  Next I stamped the butterfly (not sure which collection this came with).  I colored all the images and made the grass with my copic markers.  I finished off the images with Crystal Stickles. I added ribbon and buttons from PTI along with some brads in the button holes from my stash.

Below is a view of the open box~

FBW #195 - Open challenge

Sigh...I'm having a hard time starting this post.

Today marks my last challenge with Flutter By Wednesdays....after being on and off the team a few times over the last three years, I have decided to step down permanently.  I've needed to make some changes in life and this is one of them.  I want to thank Danni for having me on the team for so long, it's my favorite challenge and I will still be playing along when time permits (which I hope is often)! To all my FBW teammates, it's been a pleasure to design with you and I'll still be fluttering by your blogs!

On to the challenge...this week's is open! Just be sure to include a butterfly, fairy or angel on your creation. Click {HERE} to enter your project. For more inspiration from the rest of the team, please visit the links on my sidebar or on the FBW blog. 

Here is my card~

I colored this image weeks ago and finally got her on a card.  This is Lily from the Spring Flora Fairies from Carmen Medlin for SCACD. Since I colored her early, I was able to use lots of stickles :)  The paper is Bo Bunny Ambrosia, love these colors and I still have 1 or 2 more images to put on cards that match this paper. The sentiment is from Color Me Happy by My Creative Time. I didn't use it when I got it last year, but I've now used it on the last two cards I've made.

The layout is from this week's Techno Stamper's sketch~ love it and was so happy to play along again. It's been awhile!

Thanks for fluttering by today!
