Inspired

Have you ever  started to work on a card, or a project  and first  just  get stumped  before you get any where and second  get  side tracked by something that  has absolutely  NOTHING to do with what you WANT to work on?  Well  it sure happened to me today. I woke up really wanting to make a particular  card  to submit to a challenge, and I just could not  take any of the beautiful things I have and use them to  create  a card   : (

But  by  accidentally looking at something that was just  across the room,  there went my  idea... I had worked on this small piece a while back  and just never  found the right card to use it with  .
 So was it meant to be for me to create this card???  I believe it was : ) .  After completing it I know without a doubt  who it will be sent to.  It is perfect  to convey some words I have been been wanting to say to a very  dear  lady...

I used cool carribean as the base, and a piece of black card stock that I   embossed with a fiscars  template I added leaf and flower to add some color  and the sentiment is embossed all over to give  the glitter paper  even more  dimension and glitz. And the butterflies, well yes  they are a sign of beauty and life, so I felt that they were just perfect to help carry my thoughts and message .
 On the inside is a smaller card  on a black base  with a few words of inspiration...
I am quite happy with how this  turned out,  though the way it evolved  has me wondering  just what to do next...

Thanks so much for stopping by,  with this cooler  weather maybe I should keep some warm apple cider  ready so we can sit  and visit    : )

Til next time,  SMILE and  make some one  feel  good about their self...
