Birthday Card Using Cricut Artbooking Cartridge

Hi to all my fellow crafters/friends.  I have been on vacation; so haven't created anything for over 3 weeks and I feel lost right now trying to come up with something to share with you.  Tammy's Scrapin Corner has changed to teams now and my team creates a card every two weeks now instead of every week.  I think I require some sort of discipline to create weekly; but I am sure I will enjoy it once I get the swing of having a week to create anything I want.  I love using sketches; and I use to do a lot of them; so maybe I will start doing that again. 

I ended up posting two cards that I created before I left for vacation; so this post is going to be for Tammy's Scrapin Corner.  It is time for another fabulous week at Tammy's Scrapin Corner and I am sure you will love this weeks theme - Challenge #82 - Monochromatic.  I can't wait to see what you create with this one.  I had fun putting this one together.  Our Guest Designer today is Dewi.  Click her name to visit her blog and see more of her beautiful creations.  If you would like to be a Guest Designer; please add GDT behind your name when you enter. 

Our Sponsor this week is Bugaboo.  Drop by their website and find all sorts of fabulous digi stamps.  The ideas and stamps are endless and you will love all of them as I do.  I think I own 80% or more of their stamps.  LOL!!

I used the Bugaboo image "Live, Love, Laugh Flower Fairy"; which is normally black; but I made it lavender.  I decided to use all lavender and white for my creation; which is my favorite color - of course.  I got this new Die Cut from Joy Crafts called Butterfly Edge Die and had to use it right away.  I have tried to get it for a while and it was back ordered.  I love this die.  I love butterflies of any shape or color and I also love fairies.  I have had this image for a while.

 Supplies I used to create this card:
