Take Flight


Good morning everyone!! Hope all is well in your little corner of the world!! We got rain...yeaaaa!!! It has been raining for the last two days for a total of almost 5 inches....Woot!! We have been so dry that the lakes are really down and some small towns in Central Texas are worried about their water sources. This is such a crazy country....droughts, floods, storms, tornados....can't we all just get along with Mother Nature???  Anyway....I had a chance to play in Splitcoast's Sketch Challenge yesterday. I used the same papers and image from my Color Throwdown card from Wednesday  because the stuff was still on my table and I was too lazy to put it away...LOL!!

My card features the silhouette image from Flourishes Kids at Play set and papers from Echo Park's Victorian Garden. The sentiment is from Our Craft Lounge's Love in the Air set.  The sewing,  twine and punched butterflies finish it off.

Thanks for stopping by today...I hope your day is wonderful!!!

Beautifully done- love that sweet silhouette and the butterflies you added- perfect accents with the green DSP! Oh we are getting rain too- we are not as dry as Texas, but we need rain too. It was 60 here yesterday and will be down in the 30's by the weekend.........
