Beautiful Butterflies
Today I am sharing the last of the four card set that we made in Illinois at the Sisters' Weekend. I did not purposefully save this card for last, but it is very appropriate for today.
It uses the same supplies as the other cards I made in this set. You can see those here, and here, and here. You might be wondering how I cut the center rectangle out since Stylish Shapes does not have a die that big. I die cut the square at the top first and the positioned it so that there was the ame amount of space at the bottom of the rectangle as at the top and ran it through the die-cutting machine again. No worries if it doesn't line up exactly perfectly because the center strip will cover that up. It appears as if the butterflies have been stamped with an orange or darker yellow but that is just the way Daffodil Delight shows up when stamped on Lemon Lolly cardstock.
You might wonder what I am celebrating . . . this is the perfect card for today! My MRI yesterday afternoon came back clear with no evidence of disease or reoccurence. Believe it or not I finished up with the MRI and was walking back to my vehicle and my results posted before I ever got there. It was a happy night in the Wilson household last night!
Yesterday before I went for my MRI I went through all of my embellishments and ribbons and pulled out those that are retiring or no longer available. My goal today is to get through all of the designer series paper and pull retiring paper and get the new paper on the shelves. I figure if I do one thing a day I will have it done before you know it. Stamps and dies will take the longest so I am leaving them until last!!
Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!
Happy Stamping!!
