Friends with {ippity} Flair

Wowie, I have been one busy blogger the past few days! I hope you guys like what I've been up to. I'm so happy to be back to crafting. I love going to visit friends and family, but I miss my stuff! Maybe next year I'll figure out how to take along enough so that I can create while I'm gone, but I sure didn't get it right this year!

Now that I'm back, I'm making up for lost time. Not only am I getting to do my regular blog posts, but I'm hitting the challenges. I'm going to make this short, since there are a bunch of blogs to hit today for the FWF hop (all info at the Unity Blog!) and keep the deets after the pic.

Challenges this card is for:
IHHC5 - use buttons
CPS#148 - sketch
Pile it On #30 - Crystal Clear (one of my buttons is clear)
Your Next Stamp #7 - Embossing (the oval, the red strip and the butterfly are all embossed)
Flutter By Wednesdays #91 - New (new stamp & new paper pack), plus butterfly
ABC Challenge - L is for Layering (in addition to the obvious ones, there's an extra butterfly layer)
Color Chef #33 - Monochromatic

Have a marvelous day!
