In this card, I used a strip of DSP from Typeset Specialty Designer Paper which is really lightweight and a good deal since you get 24 sheets of paper in the pack for $13! The card is Crumb Cake and I used the Gorgeous Grunge to spatter ink on the background. The butterflies from Butterfly Basics were stamped with Blackberry Bliss, Mellow Moss and Night of Navy. I punched a flower from the Itty BittyAccents Punch Pack and adhered a rhinestone in the center. A very easy card to make.
Here are a few cards from convention that used these dies also:

| This was one of the display boards - the sympathy card at the top right uses the framelit. |

| Isn't this gorgous? This is the DSP found on page 143 called Timeless Elegance. Unfortunately, looking at the DSP in the catalog, you would never know this beautiful piece is in it. The creater used sponge dauber with pink ink to color the flower. This DSP will be on my next order! |
Sonny and I went out on the boat yesterday morning until shortly after lunch time. It was miserably HOT and humid. I think the humidity was the worse. This has been the worse summer we have had since we moved back here for the heat and humidity. Even getting in the lake was not enough to cool you off. When we got home, I headed straight for a cold shower!
We got an email from Ashley yesterday as she is on her way to the Phillipines. She said they have been doing a lot of busy work on the ship but the seas have not been too rough this time. She has been teaching some of the medical staff the Helping Babies Breathe program so they can hopefully teach it on future missions. They should be arriving in the Phillipines Sunday or Monday. Hopefully, she will have access to a phone there and will be able to call. I am really missing our daily chats and am ready for her to come home!!
