Fancy Butterfly

Hello everyone!  Hope your Monday is going well!  I'm in my lunch hour... but I really wanted to share a card I made this weekend in order to participate in a few challenges. 

As mentionned in a previous post I really love Meljen's images.  So when I have the opportunity I play with them.  When I saw this week's challenge about recycling I had an idea right away... so had to play along ;)

I used the wonderful Fancy Butterfly for this card.  My bit of recycling is sea glass!  It was given to me by a friend that lives in PEI and got to collect this glass on the shore of the ocean!  How cool right?!?  I wish I was there to collect it as well... I've used some of it on my DDC post earlier today.. and now this... hmmm going to run out! ;)
To make this card I also recycled my scraps!!!  So I used one piece 6x6 from MME -Moments and the rest is all various scraps of paper from my piles! ;)  I just loooove being able to use and reduce this never ending pile...   I used my scallop and classic circles from Spellbinder to cut the digi and paper underneath.

Here's a closer look at the digi that I colored with my copics.  I added some stickles to it.  The sentiment comes from  Create with tlc.

To make this card I followed this sketch:

  10. Very lovely. I was admiring your sea glass, before I realized what it was and how much more special it is knowing that it came from the sea. What an awesome embellishment.

    Thanks for joining us at Sunday Sketch and Stamp.
