Catching Butterflies Birthday
February 18, 2022
It is Friday and time for a new Festive Friday Challenge. The Festive Friday Challenge is a bi-weekly challenge that features an Inspo list inspired by a festivity. The Inspo list has 10 items on it and to play in the challenge you need to use at least 3 of the items on the list. National Peanut Butter Lovers Day is the festivity that inspired the Inspo List. You do not have to use the festivity in your project but you can.
I used the following on my project from the Inspo List: brown, stripes, circles, interactive. I will be the first to admit that some of the ways those items are represented on my card are pretty weak but they are there.
I used the adorable Catching Butterflies stamp set. This stamp set is free during Sale-A-Bration (end February 28th!) with a qualifying order. I sometimes mistakenly call this the Chasing Butterflies set. This made me think of how I could show her chasing a butterfly which led me to the Give It a Whirl dies. One of my team members, Kerri taught me this alternative way to use the dies. Doesn't it look like she is chasing a butterfly?
This is the interactive element of my card. I used a piece of Sunshine & Rainbows DSP (another Sale-A-Bration gift) and paper pieced a striped dress and this sweet little girl's brown hair is courtesy of the new Natural Tones Stampin Blends- SU200 and she is attached to a circle. Inside of the card i added a few more butterflies, the ones that got away and a sentiment from the Best Year stamp set (wishing you your best year yet).
