Hello, friends! Hope you've made it to Thursday without a hitch!
I spent an entire afternoon with that SSS Kit [sorry no longer available] and still haven't used all the gorgeous bits and bobs from the bag of ephemera! Grab a beverage as ba ba ba bird is the word for sure today [Lisa]!
Bonus!! There were butterflies, too!! This beauty deserves a closer look:
The black sentiment strips are those cut-apart ones. The white lettering was bothering me
so I used a Copic to knock that white back a bit - looks good, right? BG10 for the win!
There is a lot of goodies in the Kit and it come with a beautiful stamp set but honestly, I only used it for this last card and the two little circle sentiments - don't get me wrong, I will use it. But when all is said and done it was so fun spreading all that ephemera out and finding the best fits. ALMOST like the 12 Kits of Occasions days!
The BEST news? I found that ephemera pack at Scrapbook.com HERE and just saved you about $40!
Thanks for stopping by today!

ReplyDeleteWow, what a wonderful collection of bird & butterfly cards, Michele! Your skill in making all these gorgeous cards AND using up most of the Kit is remarkable! I LOve the variety of your card designs. The ephemerals and design paper have a similar style, but each of your cards looks so fresh and different from each other. Absolutely adore every one of them!
