Howdy all and happy Wednesday. Can't believe another week is half through. Today was scrap day! I cleaned my scrap room and decided it was time to clean out my little scrap-extra-trinket-didn't-quite-use-it-all bucket. The little bucket where I toss all the diecuts or stamped images or other little extras that didn't quite work out for the project I was working on, but couldn't quite part with! They all get tossed in a bucket by my work table and once in a while I just dump it out and start creating. Today was one of those days. Didn't get a whole lot completed by the time I had the rest of my room cleaned, but tomorrow's another day!
Here is one card that resulted from that little cleaning episode. I just put this up in my Etsy shop if you're interested. :-) I used a Making Memories diecut notebook page from their Garden Party line, a diecut butterfly stamped with my favorite Polka Dots Basics stamp set and some buttons and other do-dads.
Stamps: PTI Polka Dot Basics, Mega Mixed Messages
Ink: Smokey Shadow, Aqua Mist, Pure Poppy
Cardstock: Pure Poppy, kraft
Patterned paper: Making Memories, My Mind's Eye, Pink Paislee
Other: Sassafrass button flower, Marvy oval punch, gems, jute
Ok, off to try to create a few more things from my beloved stash of goodies. 'night!
OMG!!! I LOVE IT! How do you do it!

I love this and I know this is not the first time you have used that butterfly. What diecut is that, is it the butterfly from Indie Cut?

I love all of your projects, and I love the die cutting! Which butterfly is that? A die or cricut? I'm addicted to butterflies!
