Good morning sweet friends!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I’m looking forward to plowing into this week and as usual jumpstarted it by doing the Mojo Monday sketch – Mojo 196. I don’t get too complicated with it and try to use items that are already stamped out but didn’t work for another card. This Emily Dickinson quote from Serendipity Stamps is one of my very favorites and I have used it many, many times over the years. Since I had already stamped it out and cut it using Spellbinders Labels Fourteen, it was ready to go and only needed a card base.
I had to flip the sketch over to make it work for me, but that’s what sketches are for, right?! When I thought of the quote I used, I thought that butterflies would work well. I pulled out a relatively new set, Spellbinders Nested Butterflies Two, and cut two hoping to balance out the left side of the card. I then added some Zva Creative pearls for my butterflies flight path. Well I’m off . . . much to do and so little time!!
| SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: Serendipity Stamps – We Never Know, Impression Obsession – Medallion Background Stamp Paper: The Paper Company, Bazzill Ink: Colorbox Chalk – Pink Pastel, Versafine Onxy Black Accessories: Spellbinders Labels Fourteen, Spellbinders Nested Butterflies Two, Zva Creative Pearls, Seam Binding |
Your sweet comments yesterday lifted me and my family, thanks ever so much . . . I really am grateful to have such a wonderful blog family. Take care :-)
What a soft and beautiful card you had today. As you, I love that verse.
What punch did you use for the bottom of the card? It just went so well
everything.
Beautiful! As always.
Oh my! It’s so pretty and so meaningful. And you’ve chosen just the right the decorative elements. The butterflies flight perfectly symbolize the meaning of the sentiment . How I wish I had your talent! But the next best thing is having you as a mentor. Thank you so much for everything.
Oh so pretty in pink. Your card is simply delightful today Becca. Nicely embellished too. The sentiment makes you stop and think. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-D
Love the pink card today – great idea for something I could put together quickly. Also, yesterday’s card and message was so touching. I lost my father 43 years ago, but my life is embraced with wonderful memories. Talk about John and keep those memories alive for your self and the girls and you will be able to cherish them for a lifetime
This is beautiful Becca. Wonderful sentiment.

Love it! Your creations are always so beautiful and inspiring. What did you use to make the punched border along the bottom front?
Beautiful card with a great sentiment. Thank you for sharing a little bit of yourself each day with us.

What a beautiful card! Thanks for sharing!!!
Stunningingly beautiful Becca and awonderful sentiment all put together with gorgeous shades of pink.

Simply lovely! Just enough black to make the pink pop! Love the sentiment and the butterflies go with it prefectly. I love how you pay such attention to the little details. This card would have been perfect without the tiny pearls along the bottom but it that much more special with them.
Blessings Bernie

Beautiful card ! Thank you for your new inspiration!
So pretty! I love the soft dainty pink and all the pearls.
Thanks for sharing! :)
You certainly are the queen of this style Becca. Beautiful as always.
Again all the pieces come together and blend to make a most beautiful card. Thank you.
Becca,
Your card is so pretty and I think I have everything to make it. Of course, I could do everything just perfectly and it still wouldn’t be as pretty as your cards are.
I was on vacation last week and it was so fun to look back at the cards you had completed. I’m sure someday, there will be a Scrapbook/Card Hall of Fame – and you’ll be right there in the entry area.
Blessings,
Kay
GORGEOUS card, Becca! Love all the pretty pink and the beautiful sentiment! Have a wonderful evening….Barb

My favourite embellishment is ribbon because it can be used in so many different ways. (I learn more ways from you, Becca, all the time!)
The paper candies are wonderful…..luv the roses! You’re the Best!
Very beautiful card, Becca! I love the paper, the simplicity, and what a gorgeous border. You put so much into your cards, it must be an honor for anyone who receives one. You do such wonders with pink, I’ve begun to really love it, even did my mom’s birthday card in pink, inspired by you, haha! You can see it at inspiredpapercrafting dot blogspot dot com if ever you find the time.
Lovely card. I love how every details work together so well to create that that “pretty” feel to your card.
