Thank you for stopping by today!  Take care and let your light shine! (Matthew 5:16) - Lisa

On Wednesday's Facebook Live, the beautiful new Butterfly Brilliance Bundle was the star of the show! This stamp and die collection combo is an early release from the new Stampin' Up! catalog that will go LIVE in May.  Some of us like to call that catalog the "big" catalog!

I am really enjoying creating with these butterflies.  When you watch the recording of the video below, you will hear that when I see a butterfly cross my path, I feel it's my mom telling me "hello".  And, don't you think that sending cards with butterflies is a lovely gesture of hope?   There are quite a few on my list that could use such a card, how about you?

We will call this card, the "Calypso Coral" card.  The Love You Always Foil Sheets [154286] butterflies are such a pretty touch!

Here is our "Magenta Madness" card!  It's bright and beautiful but quite a bit different than my usual color choices.  This just proves that I should step out of my "color-comfort" box more. :)

Ready to take a look at the video?  Grab a drink (and, maybe even some popcorn!). Hope you enjoy!
