You must want to fly so much
that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.”
I'm joining in today, along with so many talented bloggers, in the Papertrey Ink Anniversary Festivities! Papertrey Ink has a fabulous design team, and the inspiration each month is amazing. It was difficult to choose who to be inspired by. I choose to work with Michelle's favorites... her style appears to be a mix between clean and simple and vintage, which I am really liking as of late. Also, the colors of my card were inspired by the cute image from Inspired By. I love the fresh aqua against the almost red, with touches of black! I thought the stamp and button dies gave a nod to the boutique shopping experience.
Ok,I am totally lovin this card. The pattern paper, the butterfly, the sentiment.....just fabulous!!
