Flying free

Between travels and houseguests, it feels like I haven't made a card in ages.  I finally got to make one today, and I was inspired by the cheerful spring colors and images in the photo inspiration for The Alley Way Stamps Be Inspired Challenge #25.  For the layout, I used the Sunday Sketch from 365 Cards (challenge #97).

The butterflies are paper pieced with the same dotted paper I used for the framing panel.  I added a double row of rick-rack and used a border punch along the bottom of the panel.

Stamps are from The Alley Way Stamps (go to the website, where they have a freebie image every month, incuding the butterfly).  Papers are Heidi Grace and Stampin Up.

Stencils and diecuts

  I've had the idea for this card for a while, but I finally got around to making it this week.  I started by stenciling the stone fence...
