Butterflies Flutter By

Welcome to another My Time Colour Challenge.

This week I got my sister to play along as well!! She has spent the past year in England, and just recently got back to Canada and is staying with me for about a month before her wedding.

This is the colour image we were given

and Heather (my sister) and I also added butterflies to our projects in addition to the colours.

Heather made a welcome card for her future mother-in-law who is coming from New Zealand for the wedding.


The background is stamped using Shapes by Design with Barely Banana ink on Barely Banana cardstock. The butterfly is from Unity, but is discontinued. It was stamped in versamark, then heat embossed with silver powder.



The sentiment is stamped and clear embossed, then punched out with the word window punch.



My card also has a butterfly, but the focus is the Dream Tree Background from Unity.



I stamped it on glossy cardstock in versamark, then heat embossed it with clear powder. I sponged, and rubbed ink (Barely Banana, Rose Red, Lavender Lace, and Cool Carribean) across the background randomly to make the tree pop.



The butterfly is a tiny one, also from Unity, that was stamped on velum, then embossed with glittery EP.

Please leave some love and let my sister know that her card is cute, and since it's only about the 10th card she has ever made she shouldn't expect to be perfect!

Also, visit the rest of the My Time Team, and be sure to visit Lauren's blog to see who she has highlighted this week.

Colourful Background!

This inspiration challenge image was *perfect* for me because I worked on my project just a couple of days after reading this post from the fabulous Michelle Wooderson.



I chose to use the variety of colours and patterns as a jumping off point to create this card that was also inspired by Mish's post.



I used 4 different backgrounds from CHF and stamped a full card front of each, then cut them apart to create this card.

The sentiment is from the Mona Lisa Moments Motivational Centres set. It was stamped in white ink, and embossed with white ep. I added the dots and doodles with markers in the same colours of the backgrounds to tie it in.



I also added the ribbon, and brad to tie the colours of the backgrounds together in one card.



Please visit the rest of the My Time Design Team, and leave them some love.

Also, we are starting something new, and Lauren will be featuring some of the participants on her blog, so please play along!
