Hi friends, I'm back tonight with my second post for the day. If you're looking for the Polka Dot Door blog hop; please scroll down or click here! You know...I think this is the first time I've posted two projects in a day! And I'm getting this one in at the Play Date Cafe just under the wire. It also fits the bill for the theme of "April showers bring May flowers" at CAS-ual Fridays. I type this as distant rumbles of thunder echo and light rain drops begin!
I started this card by die cutting a circle then masking off the inner and outer portions to add the navy chalk. Again I masked to add the soft green to the inside of the card. I punched smaller circles in scrap paper to create the other scattered circles using chalk here as well. The smallest navy circles were created with Hero Arts stamp and navy chalk ink. The wispy flower is by Hero Arts and my sentiment is Inkadinkado. My purple butterflies were made with a Martha Stewart punch.
I want to extend a big warm welcome to my newest followers. And as always let all of my followers and visitors know how much I appreciate you. You, my dear friends, certainly make me smile! ~ Lisa

I love the design of this card! Those chalk inked circles are so well placed. I think I need those whispy flowers now.
I LOVE this! Your use of the colors is fabulous--and the bits of bling are amazing! :)
Wonderful design, Lisa! Your use of the colors and the clever way you did your circles (giant polka dots?) is masterly! That center dot around the die cut is almost hypnotic. And I love the way you arranged your trail of butterflies--great design!
