I've Wandered Completely Outside Of My Box!



Well, I've went and done it, now! I've been doing so much experimenting with new techniques, card styles and layouts, that I've completely wandered outside of my box. (Now, I just hope I find my way back to my box, so I can go in and out as I please! LOL)

This digi stamp sentiment is from Deedee's Designs. I'm not the type to make a card using a scripture, so this is new for me... And quite honestly... I'm not sure what I will even do with this card. But Deedee's Designs offered this image for free as part of their challenge this week... And since using a scripture is definitely a challenge for me, I figured I might as well fall the rest of the box and see what I could create! I have to admit, I'm very surprised how well this turned out, and I'm very pleased with it. I hope the rest of you will like it, too.

All items used to create this card are from my stash. I've had these charms forever and never had a clue what to do with them. The butterfly is made with a Martha Stewart Punch. Everything seemed to come together really well, for me, for this card.

Thank you, Deedee's Designs for bringing me all the way out of my box!

Please take the time to check out Deedee's Designs-She has some wonderful images!
