Just Doing a Little Light Dusting....

I apologize for begin absent for so long so this blog is definitely dusty!  Looking back, it was actually March when I last posted here.  I'm actually ashamed to say that but Life has been all over me and definitely in my way! The Spring Clean Up lasted way longer that it should have but it is finally finished and now mostly all I have to do is mow.  Easy Peasy right?   I have almost an acre of ground and it takes a minute to get it done!

Well, moving on....I'm here this morning to present you with my latest card and then enter it into the Can You Handle The Pressure challenge.  As always anything goes as long as you use an embossing folder.  This time there is a twist of butterflies.  The card is 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 and is made using cream colored cardstock.  The paper is Stamperia Lilac Flowers and I find I'm loving the collection so much!  The embossing folder I used is Pretty Florals by Crafters Companion.  And finally I took a bit of tiny white ribbon and pulled it through Wilted Violet Distress Oxide ink then tied a bow and glued it to the card front.  I have been on a quest to make cards that can be mailed with just one stamp.  This one will be in that range.  I don't seem to want to make flowers anymore simply because the last card I mailed with the dimension of the flowers cost $5.36!  I just can't do it!


Ok, that is it for me.  I think I gave you all the info for the card and I'm sorry for whinning a little along the way.
