Laurie's Fabulous Favorites

Hello friends.  This week PTI's Laurie Schmidlin is asking us to choose a favorite Make It Monday feature on our card for the Laurie's Fabulous Favorites challenge.  I'm combining two favorites...#305 Love of Layers and #315 Embossing Enamel Splatters.

I started with a grid stencil and Lemon Tart, Harvest Gold, & Bright Buttercup inks to create my background, and then layered the Shape Shifters: Oval over top.  Then I added LOTS of layers with Tulip Time, Forest Floor: Spring and A Bit More: Butterfly Blooms.  To the leaves and the butterfly I added Shabby White Embossing Enamel...here's a closer up:
  
I may have gotten a little carried away with the embossing enamel on the butterfly considering I had already embossed it in white before blending my ink colors to it, but I still like the way it turned out.  I layered all this to a Harvest Gold piece of cs and then adhered that to a white card base.  I left a sentiment off as I'm not sure if I'm going to use it as a Mother's Day card or maybe even a Thinking of You card...I'll decide later!

 There were SO many wonderful Make It Monday challenges that it was hard to choose, but it was definitely FUN to go back and browse through them all!  Play along right HERE by Wednesday April 3 (6:00AM) and you could win a $100 shopping spree!!  

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
