Hello my sweet blog friends. I have a card to share with you that I have made for CR84FN. My BFF's birthday is on Friday and I wanted to make something special for her. I love this weeks new colors of Pink, Yellow, and a Neutral, but I am not so sure I like the outcome of my card. What I had in my mind and what came out on paper just didn't match. I think we are our own worst critic sometimes.
I love the papers I used and all the elements, I just don't like the layout of the card. I am thinking if I had turned it vertically it would have been better off. What do you think? I love butterflies, so I had to add one to the card. I go through phases of using them...I think it is that time again. :)
Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI Rustic White, Kraft
Patterned Paper: My Minds Eye
Stamps: PTI Mat Stack 4
Ink: Memento/Tuxedo Black, Tim Holtz/Spun Sugar
Dies: PTI Mat Stack 4, Butterfly, Love Lives Here (butterfly), MFT Mini Tab die set
Don't forget to stop by the rest of the design team. They have some major eye candy for you.

So pretty Heather! I love all the layers and dimension! That butterfly is beautiful and love the fabric flower!
Gorgeous card Heather, love the dimension on the flower, and the beautiful papers.
Don't be so hard on yourself - I think this is absolutely gorgeous. I really like the papers and the butterflies are fab! I like the diecut label and pretty flower. I'm sure your friend will love it!

I love that flower! How did you do that? Your card is beautiful! I like the horizontal lay out! I love the collage stamping on the background, too. Great job!
A gorgeous card in lovely soft colours and you've made a beautiful flower! I love the LO! hugs, Marlies
I think you are too hard on yourself. Yes maybe if you flipped the card but i love the way this one turend out. You nailed the colors and your BFF will love it. That flower is a beautiful focal point and that buttefly; sigh...
Hugs!
I know what you mean about things in your head not translating to paper; but rest assured, even if it isn't what you intended, it is GORGEOUS!!! LOVE that flower! Your friend is going to love it!!!
Very beautiful! Love the half die for the sentiment. Clever. I always second guess my designs. :) My best designs are usually when I have dropped my card mid-stream and it falls into another design that is way better than the one I laid out. :)
That flower looks so pretty. I think the design of your card looks great the way that it is...
Hugs, Linda
So gorgeous! ! Love the soft romantic look of this!
Makie, that was a flower I got from Michael's last year. It is Recollections which is their brand..a knock off of Prima flowers. I pulled the crochet flower center off and added a button with twine. I love it much better that way. :)
Well, I think it is gorgeous! The flower is awesome and so is the butterfly, and I love how you did the sentiment!
Oh Miss Heather this is sooo Pretty! Love the gorgeous dp's and your layered flower is Wonderful! love the button in the center! Too Sweet! 8-)
Hugs
