Now for my fun news! I am delighted to tell you that I am a Guest Designer over at Mrs. A's Butterfly Challenge. This is my second time - Yay! It's one of my favourite challenges because I love butterflies! If you're already playing over there, then you know each challenge theme is a different letter of the alphabet, but always including a butterfly. For this challenge our letter is W and our theme is Washi Tape - so we would love to see a project that includes Butterflies plus W for Washi Tape. Normally the challenges run for two weeks, but this challenge will run for four weeks.
If you've been following my blog for awhile, then you already know that I have quite a collection of washi tape in my stash. I enjoy any opportunity to use it, so I was thrilled when Mrs. A told me the theme for this challenge.
The great thing about washi tape is that you can make a beautiful card quickly. I used four different kinds here, along with some butterfly stickers from Dollarama. The larger butterfly is 3-D and it really pops off the card. The sentiment is made from tiny alphabet stickers from Jillibean Soup. I finished off the card by adding some sequins on the body of the large butterfly and a scattering of smaller sequins in the corner. The corners are rounded and the white panel is mounted on a brown panel. I just realized there is no stamping on this card, which is unusual for me.
Please join the fun over at the Butterfly Challenge and remember to include Butterflies plus W for Washi Tape. Thank you, Mrs. A, for inviting me to be your Guest Designer! It was an honour - and a pleasure!

Beautiful card Kitty! I love how you used the washi tape and the color of your butterflies. Welcome back from your break and congrats on your guest designer spot.
Just saw on Butterfly that you were GD...YAY! Love this super butterfly card, and you're inspiring me with the Washi. I have a box of the stuff, and forget about it(plus also never quite know how to use it well!). Love the way you've combined the different washi patterns, and splashed on this fantastically colored butterflies. It's bright & fun! Nice bling with the sequins. TFS & Hugs

This is truly wonderful. I love the awesome colors and wonderful lay-out over white background. So glad you joined us at Word Art Wednesday. Leaving you with an awesome inspiration from the Scripture in Hebrews 3:6 and it says, "But Christ is faithful as a son over God's house. And we are his house, if we hold on to our courage and the hope of which we boast." Have an awesome week.
