Caring thoughts

 I was looking through my stamps and dies for a butterfly and I couldn't find what I wanted so I went and looked through my coloring calendar images and found this pretty butterfly, and it was just the right size for the card I wanted to make.  I tried to use the colors that were in the paper I had picked out and I went to town coloring with pencils.

I tried using the glue with foil technique on this card before I did my nativity cards and I used bigger amounts of glue, still need to find just the right amount to use but it gave a little bit of shine to the background.  at the bottom of the paper they have a little collage and I added a button brad to it to give it some dimension as well as lifting the butterfly with foam tape. A little bit of sparkle pen added to the butterfly.

I hope your week is off to a good start, my daughter is out east and she said they have a lot of snow, but doesn't sound like anyone is without power so that is a good thing.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
