Penultimate week of this fantastic Summer of Colour event. Had a good play with this butterfly ATC. I embossed some card with a TH folder, inked with distress, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers and Shaded Lilac. Added some ribbon scraps, some of my new baby button brads, a few flower gems and a bow of coloured string. I heat embossed some detail onto my Quickutz butterfly diecut and backed it all on co-ordinating card. Just love the vibrant colours of this week's ice cream flavour.About Me

- Hi, Welcome to my Blog. I'm a lapsed crafter of late but still managing my diary Scrapbooking, plus cards as required. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Art Journaling, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery amongst other things. I live in Surrey, UK with my husband and son. For exercise I usually play Badminton and go Ballroom and Latin Dancing, not really got back to the latter since the pandemic. I like walking which I couple with Geocaching and sometimes Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I am a Christian.

Great job, I didn't really like week 5's colors until I saw this, now I feel happier about making my jar! Love it! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
Hi BJ, those colours are just amazing, love the embossing and all your embellies too. Anne x
Fab atc BJ, love the colours. Wow, the embossing on your butterfly really makes it pop, brilliant.

I know why you always beat me. Your name is so much easier to write than mine (grin). I can see you are once again playing with an ATC and the lovely butterfly. I like everything about this piece from the dry embossing to the wet embossing to the ribbons and that incredibly teeny tiny bow! Gorgeous art.
This is very great art work. Love it very much. Beautiful details.
Lovely greet
