Sandra's Butterfly Birthday Blog Hop

Hello everyone and welcome to Sandra's Butterfly Birthday Blog Hop!!! Before I continue with my post I want to wish Sandra a SUPER AWESOME HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I hope you have tons of fun with your loved ones! 

I created a few projects with one of Sandra's favorite things... BUTTERFLIES!!!

For today I created a card inspired by a blogger that I found on google and I can't find her blog!!! She saw a magazine with a cake created by Martha Stewart and had this cool card! I got inspired and created this!



Materials Used:
Gypsy.....hmmmm I need to check my files to see what cart I got the butterfly from ;)
My Creative Time stamps
Core'Dinations carstock
Recollections Kraft Paper
Bling from collection
Tim Holtz Distress ink in Vintage Photo

Now, what is a hop without some yummy candy!?!?

How about a Grab Me Button for blog?!?!
If you are my Friend on FB you can click HERE to see what buttons I have created!

Now, if you don't have a blog or don't need a button... We can email and I can give you other cool gifts!

Next on the hop is my super talented crafty bloggie friend
