A Butterfly Harvest

     Are you ready for the holidays?  These little butterflies are.  They have a cornucopia full of natures bounty.  This image, Butterfly Harvest, is part of the new release this week from A Day For Daisies.  Here are just a couple of the images being offered.  There are tons more so make sure you check them out here.

     I heard this pitiful cry from my craftroom saying "Tracy, Tracy have you forgotten us?"  My poor little Copic markers were so forelorn so I pulled them out of their little cubby hole resting place and put some marker ink to paper for this card.  Some of them are happy and others are still grumbling.  :-)      My card kind of looks like a sixties fashion print explosion doesn't it.  LOL.  Those of you who have been traveling this bloggy road with me for a while know I really have some hang ups about mixing prints and this card would never have been created about a year ago.  I've learned to trust the paper companies though, so if Basic Grey says all these prints go together, who am I to argue!  :-)
     We still have a challenge to use flocking on your card going on over at the ADFD blog and we'd love to have you join in.  I guess it's a good thing that Arielle challenged us to use that stuff because my little lambs card has gotten me five Top Three/Five picks this week.  I honestly can say that is one of my favorite, if not THE favorite cards, that I have ever made. 
     Oh well, enough of that.  I don't normally say anything about my wins on here.  I figure if your interested in what I've won, you'll visit my "Challenge Wins" page and see what's there. I guess I'm a bit like my husband's grandmother in that attitude.  We lost her this week at 103.  She would have been 104 in January and was sharp as a tack, still reading and working crossword puzzles.  That lady never missed a beat.  She wrote her own obituary out and on the back of the paper she also wrote "DO NOT add anything to this.  Don't list all the organizations and clubs I belonged to.  The people who know that already know it and the people who don't won't care anyway."  LOL  So in the same vein I figure if you want to know what I win you'll find out, otherwise I won't bore you with it.  :-) LOL
