Bright Butterfly + VIDEO

Hello and good morning!

Oh goodness, has it really been a whole week since I last posted? I fully intended to post something earlier this week, but getting orders out took precedence and then I had a mishap while filming this video. If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you know what I’m talking about. *wink*

Lately I have been all about the BRIGHT colors; in fact, I’m wearing a neon shirt right now. For some reason, I associate the sunshine and warm weather with bright colors and it’s evident in many of my cards. Funny how that happens…

Today’s card only features two stamps, but I also added in a new (to me) product- watercolors! I finally opened up my new pack and they appeared in an artsy form on this card. It’s a little outside my “normal” style, but it’s fun to change it up a bit every now and then!

In the picture below, you can see the fun addition the watercolor splashes made to the white space on the card. Granted, this won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but it was fun to give it a whirl.

In my most recent video, I showed today’s card and got quite a few requests to do a video on it. Despite it being a mini sauna up here in the studio right now (who knew that Seattle could get up to 90* in July?!), I was able to squeeze in some time to film this video. After I filmed, I realized a few scenes were off camera and the light on my camcorder was on, but hopefully you can still enjoy the video. :)

Some of you may have seen the sneak peek I posted on my social media sites…. on Sunday it’s my birthday and I’m going to be hosting a BIG giveaway. Okay, truth be told, I’m still deciding on the quantity of giveaways, but let me just say they will be BIG. It’s been a while since I hosted a bigger giveaway and I thought my birthday was the perfect day to share a gift with YOU. Stay tuned!

That’s going to be all for today’s post. I hope you have a great day and I’ll talk with you very soon.

Thinking I just might need to purchase that! And those frame dies are on my wish list too! Love those!!! Awesome video! Thanks for the creative inspiration!

  4. Adorable card, I just love watercoloring. The splatter and sequins are so fun together.

  5. I’ve been so bad about leaving comments for everyone lately…I just read the emailed posts and move on with my busy busy day. After seeing this little video I just had to stop in and tell you not only how adorable that card is but a big WOW-zers on the watercolor! I’ve never used them and think your little sprinkling technique is FAB! I could totally see myself addicted to that very easily, lol!! Thinking I need me some watercolors in my life and will have to have a little shopping trip very soon! ;)
