HI everyone!
Hope all is well with you all.
Life has been quite the whirlwind here, but I am managing to get everything done that I need to, I think! LOL!
Today I want to share my contribution to the Pretty Palette Challenge 04
Use the KEYWORD MTMEPPC 04

Now it’s my turn to share. Granted I’m a few days late, but better late than never right?
I have to say I had the best of intentions, but it turns out my kids and life had intentions of their own, making my ability to finally post, later than I wanted!
So without further delay…my card!
A Happy Life
Our friends are buying their first home the end of the month, and I wanted to send them a card, with a little gift card inside 😀
I loved the colors for this weeks palette, and actually had other ideas, but this is what transpired as I began creating. Funny how that happens huh?
I found that the Fresh Flowers © digital paper was the PERFECT match to the color combo 😀 So I used the flower pattern on my decorative panel layers.
I also used the Pretty Patterns Sketch 04 for this!
I chose to use the label from a Secret Surprise © for my layer. I cut it using the Secret Surprise Label ©.
The house image from the Just For You © set, which I stamped, colored and cut, is for the additional layer to the right.
The butterfly is from Tending The Garden © , the flutter trail is from Fanciful Flourishes © .
My sentiment is from So Sentimental © ! I love it. It is the perfect sentiment for such a happy occasion.
I made my “grass”, and patterned paper along the bottom of my card by using the Puckered Up Patterns © . So simple and fun. I love making my own patterns, and using unexpected stamps for regular things, like “grass”.
So there you have my well intended card.
Come back tomorrow because we have the next Pretty Palette Challenge, and the team and I will be peeking the new digital images, being released on the 15th (Friday)!
See you then 😀

Claire produces handcrafted Orange&Yellow Wedding Invites labels that turn an ordinary parcel into something extraordinary. Each label is a miniature work of art that she would defy anyone to throw away with the wrapping paper!
Many people use Claire’s labels as bookmarks, hang tags, place cards, to pen a little note or they have even been used by a number of brides as ‘save the date’ notifications. However they are used, you can be sure that they will become keepsakes for all who receive spring wedding invitations.
Each label is carefully crafted by hand and the beautiful images that adorn them are all created by Claire from vintage ephemera that she has been collecting since childhood.
Claire’s favourite subjects are birds, butterflies, flowers and Parisian scenes that she combines with old postcards, letters, music etc. to create pieces that are exclusive to Claryce Butterfly Wedding Invitations.
