Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge … and the rest of my news

Imgp9914

I made this card using Taylor’s Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge from last week. (Thanks, Harriet, for pointing out my error!)

The patterned papers are all from Die Cuts With a View Holiday Collection – Winter Matstack and the matting is Night of Navy by Stampin’ Up!  The sentiment is by My Sentiments Exactly and is stamped with Night of Navy.  I cut and embossed it with a Petite Oval Nestability and mounted it on Pop Dots.  The butterfly is done using a Martha Stewart punch, and the body is rhinestones this time:)  That’s all there is to it!

Oh, I almost forgot the rest of my news!  The other announcement I’m making on a more personal level is that we are expecting a new grandchild – a girl this time!  She is due to arrive on April 3 – my husband’s birthday!  That would be pretty cool!  Our grandson was born on my mom’s birthday, so she would continue the tradition.  We’re pretty excited, to say the least. :)

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you’ll come back and visit again soon!

Very cute card. Congratulations on becoming a Grandma again. I have four grandsons and would love to have a granddaughter. My daughter is trying to get pregnant and when that happens I'm going to be thinking pink all the way.
