Weddings are traditionally for the month of June and my niece had her Bridal shower recently, so of course I had to make her a card.  One of her colors is peach so I used that color for the background.

Shhhh…. don’t tell anyone but I already made their wedding card also.

Well today it is pouring rain like cats and dogs, the only good thing about the rain is my garden will love the extra water.

I was playing around with my watercolors today to create these two cards.  I used the Derwent Intense Watercolors.  This was my first time using them and I must say they really are intense.  If you can afford the watercolors they would be great for your collection.

I used a butterfly die for the card front and then painted each of the butterflies wings.  Added a little bling to their body and a sentiment and the cards were done.  These would make a great gift for the end of year teacher gifts or a Spring or Summer birthday.  As you can see this type of card can be made into several different sentiments, it could even be used as a Mother’s day card.

Sometimes life gets in the way of having fun and creating, well I’m here to say that is just what has happened to me these past two months.  After a horrific swimming accident that ended in death of my cousin and then my husband becoming very ill, most of my time has been totally drained from me.  I can now breathe again and hoping it will stay that way.

I made this card for my cousin that lost her son.  I didn’t know it at the time but butterflies are her favorite.

I made this card for my sister in law who will be having two of her children getting married this year.
