Make it Mine Monday: Butterfly Basics

Butterfly Basics.0417It’s another episode of Make it Mine Monday!  Today’s card was made with an oldie but goodie stamp set:  Butterfly Basics.  I’ve been designing cards for my upcoming Card Buffet to be held right after Easter and decided to use some older stamp sets that might be retiring with the new catalog.

Speaking of retiring lists….On Monday, April 11th the retiring list will post for the Annual Catalog and the Occasions Catalog.  I’ll be in MN but will try to get on my dad’s computer to post that for you all.  Don’t forget…if you’re wanting to get any of the products associated with the retiring in-colors (especially ink refills) GET THEM NOW!  They will be the first items to sell out.  All products on the retiring list will available only while supplies last except stamp sets that will be available at least until the middle of May.

From this you can see how easy it is to keep the same basic card as the one you’re copying but still make it your own!

Today I have to finish packing as tomorrow I head to the Homeland for visiting family and Saturday’s On Stage event!  Woo Hoo!

Have a great day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
