Butterfly Journal pages

In our newly-named yahoo group, Altered, tattered, and timeworn, we are doing a 6 x 6 journal apge swap where the theme is butterflies. Decorate front and back and send to hostess and we will all get 11 pages back to make a Butterfly Journal. Must use at least one tim Holtz product. well, that was easy! Almost everything used was Tim's. For my back pages, I used Distress Markers to stamp with and spritzed them with water to create a watercolored effect over my stamped background page. The butterflies were then punched from the paper I use to protect my desk when I am working at it and then randon background stamps over them after I punched them. Hope they all like my pages. looking forward to getting them back!

September gathering- Close To My Heart

Waiting for my brand new cartridge to arrive that was just released exclusively for CTMH called Artfully Sent. It is an amazing cartridge for card-makers. I was the hostess this month, so got to set up at home instead of hauling everything out. Nice! Here are the cards I made for them to see and they all made the Rainy Day set card. I was inspired by Brenda Rose and loved how the boots really look like rubber boots using the Liquid Glass on them. So cool! i used my hostess benefits to order the new cartridge as a half-price deal. Even at full price, it's a steal with almost 700 images on it, 3 sets of stamps, and a full pack of cardstock. The stamps and cardstock are a $75 value, so that makes the cartridge only $24!
