Flutter By Wednesday - Summer

Today starts a new challenge from Flutter By Wednesday challenge. This week's challenge is the theme "Summer." We'd love to have you join the challenge. Just make your card, upload it, and link it up to the Flutter By Wednesday blog. Be sure to include your butterfly or fairy!

I love daisies and they say "summer" to me. For my card, I used stamps from a set from Sheena (Sheena Douglass). The stamps were a gift from my good friend, Harriet.  I colored the daisies with Copic markers. I cut the image and matting with Nestabilities. The butterfly was done with a Martha Stewart punch and adorned with gems.

I just got back from our annual "Group Gathering" in Des Moines, Iowa. A group of nine of us gathered for three days of shopping (in stamp stores!), eating, laughing and stamping. What fun!!! This was our seventh year and we already have our reservations for next year. Members of our group who have blogs besides Harriet are Sheri and Vicki. There were four from Iowa, two from Nebraska, one from Illinois, one from California and one from Minnesota.

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