I hosted a Stampin' Up! party yesterday. We had a room FULL of talented stampers, and we had so much fun!
A big Thank You to my friend Kris. She's a wonderful demonstrator!
By the way...she taught us how to "tap dance" yesterday ;o) You'll have to ask a SU demo to show you how.
Hey, I guess I'd better get back on track. The card I've made today is going into 2 challenges.

CR84FN 52 Color Challenge
I needed to send out a sympathy card this morning, and realized that I've only got one more. So, I needed to replenish my stash. I think the colors in the CR84FN challenge work well for a sympathy card to be sent to a woman. The colors are soft, but not drab.
I am really enjoying the retro sketches and I try to play along as often as I can. This one was a bit of a challenge at first (that's the point isn't it?), but it was fun to play with.
This is how I've combined the two challenges.
I've used a textured card stock for the base. It's a retired Stampin' Up! card stock in Creamy Caramel. I've used dimensional adhesive for two layers of this card. I used various butterfly images from Beautiful Butterflies by PTI, along with a sentiment from the same set.
Thanks so much for taking a look. I hope you'll leave a comment. I SO enjoy reading them!
