Flutter By Wednesday #54

Happy Flutter By Day! Wednesday is quickly becoming my favorite day of the week because I get to share my flutter by creation and see a lot of other pretty flutter bys too!

We have a guest designer today and its none other than the fabulous Lauren Meader. I just LOVE her blog and have been a subscriber for months now. Her work is amazing. You can see her blog here and also check out Danni's blog for her creation and our featured team member Jodi!

This week its an open challenge, all you have to do is a butterfly or fairy. I created this card a few weeks ago and held on to it until it fit a challenge LOL

This is a stair step card and I used the Angel Company's Butterfly Bits. It comes with 9 stamps and I was able to use 8 of them on this card! I had a great time creating it using the Kissing Technique, you can find the instructions HERE, I used one of the variations of the technique. I think it turned out pretty cool! There is also a lot of sparkle but it doesn't show up that well in the pictures.

Here's a side view
The Recipe:
Stamps: Butterfly Bits ~ The Angel Company
Paper: DCWV Spring Stack '09, Georgia Pacific
Ink: Pink Passion, Green Galore, Bashful Blue ~ all Stampin Up
Accessories: Diamond Stickles

I hope you decide to play along! You can link your card using Mr. Linky on Danni's blog or use keyword FBW when uploading to SCS or PCP!

Thanks for fluttering by!

Yum, cupcakes!

This is the first stair step card that I created a few weeks ago, for some reason or another, I kept forgetting to share it.


I used Hero Art's Limited Edition Cupcake set and the HA Clear Cupcake set, love them both and it was the first time using the clear cupcakes, I think they are adorable! The paper is Basic Grey's Cupcake line, how appropriate. To glitter the card up a bit, I used Xmas Red, Peeled Paint and Crystal stickles.

I hope to be back with more to share later! I still have a few projects from this weekend that haven't been posted yet.
