Recipe Challege at Flutter By Wednesday

I'm so happy to show you my card today! I finally got to use a stamp that I bought some time ago and participate in a few challenges! It's really good for the creative soul to do things YOU want to do every now and then!

So the first challenge is for Flutter By Wednesday - It's a Recipe challenge. Your creation should have a BUTTERFLY, FAIRY or ANGEL on it along with 1 part Sparkle, 2 parts Designer Papers and 3 parts Buttons or Gems.

Isn't he adorable? That's my new stamp from Lili of the Valley (LOTV) - I found out about them from a fellow blogging friend, Tammi and had to purchase a few. I bought four and have never used any of them! When I saw the challenge this week at LOTV Blog - Four Seasons - I knew what stamp I wanted to use and what season I wanted to showcase...SPRING!

I also used The Sweet Stop (SSS69) sketch for my card...love the layers! I'm also entering this into The Pink Elephant challenge (TPE80) of Ribbon & Sparkles.

I used Aquacolor Crayons and my Niji Water Brush to color this sweet image. Fun to use something other than pencils and Copics...I'm telling you creating this card just made me feel good!

I hope you'll participate in the FBW Challenge this week - stop by the blog to link your creation. Be sure to visit my fellow DT blogs...their creations are sure to help the creative mojo!

Thanks for stopping by today!
