Sorry to be a little MIA just recently; I’ve been working on some Design Team projects that I can’t share quiet yet, but you will get to see them at some point! For today though I am delighted to be joining in a new challenge on the block – Cure For The Monday Blues by Taheerah. Here’s the inspiration for this week:
Isn’t that dreamy gorgeous! I took one look at those walls and thought ‘Bazzill Taffy’!! So once the taffy was in my hands I looked at the photo again, hmmm, the striped headboard – that could be some white heat embossed stripes and the white word above that could be white heat embossed too, maybe on vellum. I reached for the new Simon Says Stamp set Blessed – the beautiful font in this set is just perfect :) The butterflies were a given for me – I do love a good butterfly! I cut the Chrissy butterfly from a rich coral colour, brought in the yellow tones with an enamel dot and the browns with a bit of twine. There is so much going on in this photo, I really could’ve gone in a hundred different directions! Pop by and see Taheerah for her dreamy take on the photo, she used the deer wall hanging, and also to check out all the challenge details :)

Perfect tag for the challenge, Debby. I love the silver butterfly a little offset… and everything else :). Taheerah finds the most inspiring pictures, it’s just impossible not to play along.
Yep – “be still” my heart. This tag is so lovely, I could admire it for hours.
So gorgeous!
Stunning card, Debby! I love the soft color palette and your butterfly is so sparkly and gorgeous! Such a lovely take on the inspiration photo!
Thanks again for being such an amazing instructor at the ‘Stenciled’ card class! I’m still playing/practicing the techniques you shared with us!
This tag is one of my favorites of all your amazing creations! Absolutely wonderful! Thanks for all the great videos in “Stenciled” also.
