The month of April brings a lot of birthdays for people I know. Several dates mark the birthdays of 2 or 3 of my friends, so birthday cards are a common thing to make for me during this time of year. I made two this weekend.
This one is for the Paper Smooches Sparks challenge. The sketch challenge this month is this:
I used one of my favorite - and first - sets from Paper Smooches, Giddy Bugs. I inked up the little butterfly with some new Hero Arts Orange Soda ink. I shaded in the head and body with colored pencils, and glittered up the wings with some Doodlebug Sugar Coating glitter. The sentiment was stamped on the orange cardstock and heat embossed with holographic embossing powder. The Loopy Leaf diecut leaves are also from Paper Smooches. I love the shape of them!
CAS-ual Fridays Blog is challenging us this week to use glitter on our projects. I'm so glad I saw their challenge, because I really needed to add a little shimmer to that cute little butterfly. Glitter did the perfect job!
You can play along with either of those challenges by clicking the links above.
Thanks for visiting My Happy Place!
