it's Brenda's very first turn at hosting and she's got a fun one...."Up, Up & Away" which means she wants to see anything that flies. So much you could do birds, airplanes, bugs, balloons, kites, rockets....
Or you could do what I did.....
....and use a butterfly. They fly. And I know that for sure because I get dive-bombed by them all the time when I walk across my yard. Nasty evil things with their sharp teeth and their serrated legs. Paper ones glued on a card are so much better.
I dunno though.....this card seems to be juuuuuuuust missing it's mark, kwim? It's just nooooooot quite right. Maybe it's the sentiment....rectangle might be better, or it's quite possible that the butterfly is a bit too big for the layout.....anyhoo I'm considering reworking it, but for now this is what it is.
So why not look up, way up, for some inspiration and then head on over to Little Red Wagon and link up? And, while you're there, be sure to check out the wonderful projects the other Girlfriends have created.

Are you kidding?? It is awesome. Love that butterfly with it's squarish wings. Don't do a thing to it....it is perfect.
