Harumph.

My poor blog thought I forgot about it, it's been so long since I've posted! But, I am having a fabulous weekend away scrapping with friends at a cute little retreat house called Whispering Willows, which meant I had time to put something together for Papertrey Ink's February blog hop. Sadly, when I went to post it to the inlinkz, it was closed early (*cry*).

As luck would have it, my February order showed up before I headed out for my weekend and so I brought my new goodies along to play with. I can tell already that Maile Belles' new set, Beautiful Butterflies, is going to be a favorite of mine. I knew right away that I wanted to recreate one of Nichole Heady's cards that she made during the reveal of the sets.

So here's what I made:



I'll come back later and tell you what I used to make it, but for now I'm going back to my crafting. Buh bye!

  4. Sorry you missed the linky thing, but I am here anyway! This is a fabulous card. I love the colors you used on the front--thank goodness for me I ordered that background set, or I would be crying at how gorgeous yours is! And, I love those butterflies inside.

  7. Love the colors you used, Jenn! My order came a couple of days ago, but I haven't had time to play. I think Maile's butterfly set will become one of my favorites too! Enjoy your weekend!
