Wednesday has come rather quickly! Wow...and even though I've not crafted nearly as much as I would like (missing mojo...have you seen it? Send. it. back. Please.), I have a card to share for CAS(E) this Sketch #122, designed by the marvelously talented, ultra sweet, Leigh Penner. She is extraordinary, as a designer and especially, as a mom!
Yes, yes...I took liberties. I didn't include banners (sorry, Leigh), but hopefully, the two lines of sentiment are a 'close' replacement. And, yes...you are right...any opportunity to 'fit' a butterfly, or two, or eleventy-twelve, into a challenge, rest assured, I'll give it my best shot *grin*
NOTE: Honored and thrilled to be selected as a CAS(E) this Sketch Favourite! THANK YOU!!!
Short and sweet today...I have a disorganized crafting zone that needs some attention. Given my space is the size of a postage stamp, even a small mess is chaotic! I am running out of room to put stuff (and that would be why, you ask? Because stuff' keeps coming the mail...Funny how that happens) and it's make me a bit crazy. May have to spill on to the kitchen table...
Thanks ever so much for dropping by; your visit and comments add sparkle to my day!
Hugs,
Love that Altenew Butterfly set, I don't use it near enough. This is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThere are those lovely butterflies again: ) Lovely card.
ReplyDeleteLove the flourish-y look of these beautiful butterflies, Carol. I think I need to go shopping :) xx
ReplyDeleteA very lovely card! Good luck, I hope you will win!
ReplyDeleteMeets the sketch criteria for me (says Mrs Stretch-a-Sketch!). Those butterflies are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteJust fluttering by to say that I think your card is beautiful and a good take on the sketch...shows what an artistic mind you have to be able to really put your own take on something and not copy exactly (more my style). Mojo popped by for a cuppa but is on his way home again..he shouldn't be long! As for the crafty space....well that's all the postman's fault..... definately........lets face it he doesn't want to be out of a job does he? Hugs xx
ReplyDeleteLovely butterflies! Your cards are always smile inducing. I hope you get your space cleaned up to your liking and that your mojo comes back. I know how frustrating that can be.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so pretty! I love your fabulous take on the sketch (& your kind words!) you are so awesome, my friend!
ReplyDeleteI love your take on the sketch Carol and yes, I think you two lines of sentiment work great as the "banners". Such a beautiful card and a very "Carol" card with those beautiful butterflies! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteIf chaotic means having this beauty on your craft-table or kitchen table, give me some of that chaos, c... so beautiful!!

I have no mojo too Miss C..look at my blog its empty and it was only last sunday cards I posted...but I wanna say I always love your butterfly card...sweet color and lovely sentiment on your card..psstt I also have mojo to playing at blogland. You are my first visit..Miss C..come n Join our Sunday Stamps challenge I guess you will love the color combo..see you soon Miss C...hugs.Monika
ReplyDeleteI see you found your mojo--love this gorgeous card, and another Altenew butterfly design for me to pin!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this - those butterflies are just so perfect for you!! So cool and the color you chose is perfect!! Love the elegant CASness of this card and I really want to thank you for putting Neil Diamond's music in my head - it is on repeat and repeat and so on!!! Loving it!!! YOU are delightful - good luck with your space!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely just gorgeous...love your beautiful butterflies, simply stunning and I love that you changed up the card just a bit, so fun!
ReplyDeleteYour posts never cease to delight me! Craft Supply Spillage is a normal and expected side effect of this disease that afflicts us all. I remember my Baba telling me that the kitchen table is the heart of any home. Sooooo, it only makes sense that your supplies hang out on the table cuz then they will know how loved they are!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card - stunning colors! I love how you interpreted the sketch... perfect balance between the two butterflies & the sentiment, which in my humble opinion definitely qualifies as a banner replacement!
Sooo pretty! Love those butterflies!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI just got some new Altenew stamps and I'm kicking myself for not getting the butterflies. Oh well, on my next shop......They look beautiful in the two tones of blue and I'm sure Leigh won't mind at all!!
ReplyDeleteSimply gorgeous, Carol ... you do beautiful butterflies like no other! Congratulations on having this fabulous card selected as a CTS Favourite ... so well deserved! I'm a postage-stamp crafter too ... can't expand just yet ... my compact and bijou stash would end up being renovated! One day ....! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteSee, you didn't need those banners to be a favorite at the challenge, Carol. Those butterflies frame the sentiment perfectly. I understand about the chaos. My space is small and I was working on three cards at a time.
ReplyDeleteWOOHOO! Congratulations! No surprises that it was chosen as a favourite as it is gorgeous. You're such an enabler, I neeeeed that stamp set now. lol
ReplyDeleteComing back to congratulate you on your CAS(E) win. So well deserved on this gorgeous card. Am now feedlying you too. (did I just invent a word--sure hope so)
ReplyDeletePerfectly CAS--love it, Carol!
