Hi! Today I'm joining along with the PTI 11th anniversary day 5 challenge where the challenge is to create a project featuring a stamp set that is on the 2018 retirement list. I created a thank you card featuring pretty butterflies from the PTI Butterfly Dreams stamp set:
I stamped the background with one of the smaller stamps in the set then embellished with a layered die cut / stamped larger butterfly. It doesn't matter to me if this set is being retired, I'll continue to create cards with it :)
For sketch inspiration, I'm joining along with the Freshly Made Sketches sketch challenge:
Up next is a 12" x 12" oil painting featuring a vase of daisies and delphiniums and was inspired by Nancy Medina. I'm entering this painting in the 30 paintings in 30 days challenge~Day 9: I'm also joining along with the Paint Party Friday site:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)
