Hello!!
I hope you're ALL having an AMAZING Weekend!!?? Beckett is on Spring Break, so we were able to get away with some of our Friends and their Kiddos and go Skiing!! It has been just BEAUTIFUL ALL Weekend!! Beckett was SO AMAZED at how it was 76 Degrees at our house in Nebraska and then we traveled just 61/2 hours to Nederland/Eldora Colorado in the Mountains and it was Snowing and 30 Degrees!! It is SO FUNNY how different it can be just miles away!! =)
I'm stopping in to share the New Paper Smooches SPARKS Designer Drafts Challenge!!
I LOVE the sketch for this week and decided to use some of the Newly Released Goodies for my Card!! I've used the Graceful Beauties and Fanciful Frames Stamp Sets and the Butterfly Duet Die Set, Fringe Die, and the Gift Tags Die Set!!

I started by stamping the Largest Butterfly from the Graceful Beauties Stamp Set with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and then I covered it in Judikins Sticky Stuff Embossing Powder!! I added the Melissa Francis Vintage Glass Glitter and then Fussy Cut it out!! I layered an Oatmeal Meal Cardstock Butterfly and a Vellum Butterfly using the Butterfly Duet Die Set on top and then added a Confetti Heart Piece from Pretty Pink Posh to finish it off!! For the Fringe I folded some Packing Paper to fit just inside of the Fringe Die so that I could extend the length of the Fringe to fit the entire length of my card!! I LOVE being able to Stretch the uses of my Dies!! =) Then I stitched it along with a couple Sequins to the top part of my card front panel using my Sewing Machine!! I then Die Cut the Second Largest Tag from the Gift Tags Die Set also from some  Oatmeal Meal Cardstock and Vellum and then Stamped and Embossed my Sentiment from the Fanciful Frames Stamp Sets using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Ranger Ultra Clear Embossing Powder!! I added my layered Butterfly and a Bow and layered it on top of the Fringe Border!! I LOVE how it turned out!! =)
I hope you'll join us this week for the Challenge and stop by the rest of the AMAZING Paper Smooches SPARKS Design Team Blogs to see what they have created using the FUN New Designer Drafts Sketch!!
