Just Rite Challenge #069

Wow, I agree with Kellie over at JustRite Inspiration!
It simply doesn't seem possible that they are holding
their 69th challenge!  And it's a really good one!

SPRING FLING!

Bring out your Spring colors and include a butterfly!

If you're not familiar with JustRite's stamps, go check out their website!
I have a huge wishlist, but I particuliary LOVE the new Sea Shell Bay, At the Beach, and Oceanside stamp sets!  Of course, then I would need the dies to go with!
Now, do you see my problem?  Too many to choose from!

On this challenge card, I used an image stamped and colored with Copics from
"Shabby Chic Labels Four" as a mat for my butterfly chipboard piece.
I love the delicate details that show out from beneath the wings.
I also used the same stamp inside along with the sentiment from the
"Tiny Words", an Original JustRite set. 


In Phoenix, we have seen these gorgeous orange, black, and blue/green butterflies in our yards for the past few weeks!  We finally recieved our first much-needed rainfall of the Spring, and the few flowers that grow here in the desert have popped out in great numbers! Of course, my allergies have reflected that, too! At least these beautiful creatures make it all worth the sneezing and headaches!


Finished inside:


As I mentioned above, JustRite Inspiration is having a terrific Challenge Friday and I am definately entering this beauty!  I give all of the credit to the inspiration from my backyard visitors, and hope they're around for a while longer.
Spring is simply way too short in Phoenix!
