I have been playing with new crafting items, mostly playing with possible Christmas cards and Halloween cards. But today I am posting a card I made for Sydney. I cannot believe that the little girl is now starting college. I am so grateful that we moved back to Chicago when she was a toddler and that we had all these years to spend time together and make memories, Time does go by quickly. She is at North Carolina State and had her first day of college yesterday! She has a full schedule as she is in the Honors Program and I hope she finds time to play a little while doing her best.
Today's cards were created using My Favorite Things' Spread Your Wings stamp set and dies. I first saw this card design on their website. The difference was that the designer used ice cream rather than butterflies. I made the card twice, once using the smallest butterfly and then again with a middle-sized butterfly. All butterflies were colored in with alcohol markers.
