It’s has been a long break…

Hey peepz! I am back! Finally got my Live Writer working… its been way too long since I created. And when I did… I really wanted to blog and show you guys! Renovation/Construction is still going on at my place, but its almost done and I just couldn’t stop myself, had to make a card!

The picture of this card has not come out as good as the card really is in real life. It looks gorgeous, seriously! Even my dad loved it which is rare.

The brown paper that you can see here is one of my self dyed papers. I wanted a bark like feel to the background and this is why I went for this paper as it has a rough look.

I am so glad I had this embossing folder, it worked perfectly with the woodsy feel that I wanted.

Take a lookey at the lil butterfly!

I really wanted the butterfly to be of a different color.. so that it stood out..

Oh well, all the flowers are handmade from scratch as always. The glittered swirl is hand drawn, cut and then glittered. I added two swirly wires in between the flowers but they are not that clear in the pic.

AAAHH feels GOOD to be back! Missed you guys!

XOXO
