Butterfly Birthday...Inkspirational Challenge #126~Flutter

Hello!

Hope you had a fabulous week and are in the market for a new challenge! We have just the ticket, with Inkspirational Challenge #126~Flutter.


Joining us this week is wonderfully talented, Gina, whose project - a co-production with her husband - will blow you away! Innovative, ingenious and just all-around cool! Please do pay her a visit; you'll be so impressed!

Flutter...and you know precisely where my mind went! Yep...butterflies...a rainbow kaleidoscope of them, to be precise,  Concord and 9th all the way and easy-peasy to create with just several runs of the die through my Big Shot and a bit of off-set assembly.  Add the sentiment and....done!

Getting this card to balance upright for its photo shoot was a tad challenging, as it's a bit 'top' heavy. I managed, though, with behind-the-scenes assistance from my little 'yak' stuffie (yes, you read that right: he was a gift to my husband before we traveled to Nepal years ago. Now that was an excursion...both finding the plush bovine AND the trip itself. Anyway, I digress...) adding support from behind. I'll have to introduce him to you at some point...he comes in very handy!


Please drop in at Inkspirational to see the delights my sweet teammates have created; you'll be aflutter with delight!


Your turn! Looking forward to seeing your creativity in the gallery!
