Taaa-daaa!!! Well...what do you think of my blog make-over? I'm debuting it as I'm pairing up two fun challenges tonight with a happy little card I put together this past weekend. First up is the Play Date Cafe where they've given us the vibrant colors of Flamingo Pink & Bright Orange! Then there is a clean and simple sketch from CAS-ual Fridays.
I was inspired by the polka dots (go figure huh!!!) and the frilly blooms in the bottom left of the inspiration photo. I cut a strip of a fun bright orange fabric that is scattered with bright pink polka dots ~ how perfect! Next I hand stitched it and pulled it together to make my shabby bloom. This lovely butterfly is from the PTI: Pretty Peonies set (thanks Ally!) and is stamped in Memento: Rose Bud ink as is my sentiment from Stampin' Up. A few gems and a sparkly button complete the card.

Beautiful design!! Love the peeking out butterfly! Thanks so much for playing with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
Pretty take on the challenges! Love the blog re-vamp too.
Oh Lisa! Love the new blog look in these bright cheery colors ( the old one was great too though). And this card! Trust you to come up with a polka dotted flower--it is SO cute! Love your combination of these two challenges, especially the colors--still hope I can try this one!
How fun is this?! I love the butterfly peeking from behind that cheerful flower!
Love the blog design! Beautiful bloom on your card!
Beautiful card AND BLOG!!!
LOVE the new blog look!! ;-D And your card is just as beautiful. That little flower is the bomb! Love it! And a perfect use of the colors. Fabulous. ;-)
Love the new blog, I am afraid to change mine I might mess everything all up and lose it all. I like the banner you made, I notice the large scallop I should be getting one in the mail today. So I was happy to see that you made something with that.
Love your CAS but fancy card. Love the button flower. Have a great week Lisa
Cool shabby flower, Lisa! I love it! And to me . . . it looks as if you've used the butterfly as the leaves for the flower. Maybe you didn't intend it that way, but it looks super clever and creative to me!
Your new blog is just adorable!! Do you design these yourself, Lisa? If so, we need to talk! Maybe you can re-do mine for me!
I really love how you made your own fabric flower! And of course the polka dots :)
This is terrific! Great combination of challenges - love the butterfly peeking out. And the flower is fabulous!
Fantastic job using those bright colors, Lisa. They scared me! Love how you kept it CAS. The peeking butterfly is so adorable. Is he one of mine visiting you?
So creative and pretty! Love how the butterfly is peeking out from the flower!

Lisa, your handmade fabric flower is amazing!! I need to look again (after I finish typing my comment!) at a close up of it. Looks like the kind of thing I need to try!! It's a beauty. And your clean design for this card balances those fun and bright colors perfectly!
I do recall how much you love polka dots, Lisa! And BTW, love the new fresh look of your blog! Who did your header?
