Life IS Beautiful....

Technically, this makes two posts in one day

but the first one went on just after midnight.

I have been so inspired by Sarah's colors over

at The Play Date Cafe.

Here we are in the midst of autumn and yet

working with these soft tones has really been lovely.

It's been a blast pulling out a lot of the new things

I bought on my recent birthday trip to Archivers.

Starting with the base paper from My Mind's Eye.

The top panel is a die cut from Bo Bunny's

'Mama-Razzi' set.   Embellishing this layer

 was not difficult because of

the wonderful colors already offered.

The butterfly image is from Memory Box Stamps.

I inked it in a variety of shades until I got what

I wanted (which was debatable at the time!)

Before clustering those stunning

Prima 'Madrigal Blossoms',

I 'wrapped' it in 'Cappucino' twine

from The Twinery.

Hope you enjoyed it....

Now off to get my to-do list done!
