From Courtney's Closet Challenge #61...



{sorry for the bad pictures...it's a dark, rainy day here in Maine. Will repost once the sun comes out!}


Wow, hard to believe I am going to post something crafty! But, how could I resist when I saw the Libby over at Libby's Little Addiction was hosting her challenge using an outfit modeled by her cutie daughter, Courtney! I also wanted to challenge myself to a ONE dimensional card! Gosh, that's a hard thing to do!! But, gosh......DO I LOVE HOW IT TURNED OUT!! Ok, not singin' my own praises but I {{love, love, love}} this card! I love the colors, although, my blue is a touch different than the blue Courtney is wearing. But, blue and green are probably one of my all time favorite color combos! Second, I love the sentiment stamp. It reads "First, Think. Second, Believe. Third, Dream. And finally Dare" ~Walt Disney. Love that! And the third thing I love about this card is I used my Martha Stewart Glue Pad to add glitter to the middle butterfly. I just bought that and I love the "concept" however have found that the actual glue pad is a bit quirky. I followed the instructions to a "T" and yet it seemed to dry out even though I put the inside cover on it as well as the outside cover. Do any of you have it? Do you like it? I "like" how easy it was to add the exact stamped image of glue over my previously stamped image, but, don't think it will last too long!

Anyhow, hope you like this card!
Thanks for stopping by...
Karen

I too, love the sentiment and the color combo. I've never seen the Martha Stewart stamp pad, but I'll have to go check it out. I'm intrigued. The card is wonderful.
