Lets play I Spy

My I Spy B's are: Butterfly, Blooms, Blue and Blobs

Morning Peeps, it's Saturday and time for a new challenge at Allsorts and I am your host this week and my theme is "I spy with my little eye something beginning with B". This weeks winner will receive a Chocolate Baroque Butterfly Tree stamp which is a limited edition run but you can still purchase it in the Essence of Nature set.

A very short post as I've been poorly and in bed all week, but will try and link to the Butterfly Challenge as I made this one for that as well. I've used a lot of stamp sets including Patchwork Butterfly. Just Butterflies, Pretty Poppies and Wild Meadow.

                                       
My B's are Butterflies and Black and the purple is so bright I could add Bold maybe?

Your creations are pure loveliness, B! Such a cute theme for your challenge, and that sentiment is so true about smiling! I hope you are soon feeling improved and able to resume a more normal life - although I understand "normal" is all relative to the hour we are currently living within. Lots of love, de

Hi Brenda!

Thank you for visiting my site earlier. That it was so many weeks since I was online ... thought it was yesterday ... Time just flies away.

You've created so much beauty since I was last online. And I hope you are well. As you wrote, coloring - and everything else creative - is very therapeutic. Luckily you can relax that way. I'll do what I can now to get started again.

Have a great summer day!
Hug Sussie

Ciao Brenda, mi dispiace molto che tu non stia bene!! Spero che il malessere passi presto!! Sono di nuovo online, ma ho poco tempo perchè anche mia mamma non sta bene, è caduta e si è fatta male ala schiena. Sembra che non sia nulla di grave, ma farla visitare è stato difficile, per via della situazione assurda degli ospedali qui in Italia. L'emergenza non c'è più ma per questioni politiche il governo continua a tenerci bloccati, alcuni ospedali sono adibiti solo per Covid anche se ci sono solo due o tre persone ricoverate. Gli altri sono pieni e non si possono prenotare visite. Una follia. La situazione qui non è rosea, l'Italia è in una fase pericolosa, ma non per il virus...
Le tue card mi hanno sollevato un po' il morale, sono così dolci e piene di vita!!! La prima è davvero incredibile per la forma e per la delicatezza... e i sentiments sono bellissimi, così come quella farfalla con la lancetta dell'orologio!!
La seconda card mi fa respirare.... adoro quelle tonalità di viola e il bellissimo effetto dell'albero di farfalle su quello sfondo... immagino fatto con stencils! Una vera meraviglia!
Un grande abbraccio, abbi cura di te
