Our House - Butterfly - Fly Free


This week the challenge at Our House - We have Butterflies in the house.

My house has butterflies set free to fly. The background paper is from Cosmo Cricket, I used a little narrow piece using the other side for the roof line and the two corners I cut off to make the peak I painted with Crackle Paint in Shabby Shutters and Tattered Rose. While the paint was still wet I added glitter for that bit of sparkle. I cut the window and added an orange background for contrast of colors and a little ribbon for the shutters. The butterflies are from a vintage sticker sheet that I printed on Photo paper and I only adhered them in the center so their wings can fly. The buttons are from Foof-a-la and I used my Dymo Labler to create the words. I sanded the words a bit and added Distressed Ink in Tea Dye to bring out the letters. The little flowers are also from Cosmo Cricket and I added a bit of glitter glue to them.

Our House - Little Girl


This is a new challenge for me - Our House and the challenge this week, in our house there is a little girl!! So I have a Flower Girl in my house.
The Background paper is from Cosmo Cricket, I stamped and embossed butterflies in silver and blue, butterfly stamp from Stampington & Company. The image is from Altered Pages, the ribbon on the roof is brown with white stitching and the flowers are from Prima and I made the words with the Dymo Labler. I added a bit of glitter on the flowers with glitter pens in silver, pink and gold.
Thanks for looking.
