Life's Comforts

Hot chocolate, a comfy bed on a rainy morning, sweatpants, a hug...those are a few of my life's greatest comforts. How about you? This card just had me thinking about that, seeing as how the sentiment reads "Wishing you life's greatest comforts".

These are a couple of my cherished Urban Prairie papers again, paired with the Comfort Plain Jane by Verve Stamps.

Design Details:

Cover Basic Grey's undressed chipboard elements with Urbain Prairie paper, then poke two holes through chipboard and sentiment panel to attach with brads.

Draw the butterfly trail very lightly with a pencil. (It took me a couple of tries to be happy with my trail.) After drawing the dotted trail with a marker, erase the pencil lines. Run black marker along edges of butterfly to make it stand out better.

The project parade starts today on the Verve Stamps blog. Be sure to check it out so you have plenty of time to play along. And there'll be lots of eye candy for the next several days as the designers feature a new project each day with the theme "A Kid At Heart". I'll be sharing my project on Thursday, and I really think you're going to want to see it. At least I think it's a really cute idea.
