I hope you're feeling special | My first Stampin Up! card

I never thought I would order anything from Stampin up!. I don't like the idea of not REALLY knowing what you're gonna get, until you are face to face with the UPS-man. But there it was; the horrid event of me not liking any of the Christmas products at my favorite craftstore.

I received a way to small box for having spent 200 euros but, alas, everything was really in there. I'm a grown woman. I have got a job. I can spend excessive amounts of money on stamps right? Right!

Of course I wanted to use my stamps right away and by reading my favorite card challenge blogs a clear image came to mind of the card I would make.

With this card I have combined the Knutsels en Kadootjes butterfly challenge#38, Liftchallenge #107 and Sketch Saturday challenge #428.

The amazing sketch of the Sketch Saturday designers

The lift-card picked by the ladies of liftchallenge.blogspot.nl
For the 'lift' part of the card I was especially inspired by this beautiful creation by Nicole. It really ties the whole card together.



Lovely, right?!


So without further ado, here is my creation of today:









Used supplies:
kraft card base
Schut artist drawing paper
Versafine Onyx Black ink
Tim holtz distress ink Peacock feather
Tim holtz distress ink Spiced marmalade
Tim holtz distress ink Mustard seed
Tim holtz distress ink Picked raspberry

    How great to read the story behind this card. Nice front with the bright colors, and how nice the little butterflies inside of the card. Thank you so much for joining us at the liftchallenge!

    Love the bright colors and images you used on the outside, the butterflies on the inside go together with that really well. Thank you for joining us at the Liftchallenge.

    Uh oh, now that you've experienced the stamping "high" that comes from the arrival of the UPS man, I fear you will be buying many more stamps online! Your card is so lovely. Thanks for sharing it with us this week over on the Sketch Saturday blog.
