I have always loved this paper. It was a seasonal 8x8 pack from Creative Memories so long ago. Being a consultant I am sure I had to order a 6 pack or something like that. I am sure I sold some/gifted some whatever the deal was but I know I kept at least two packs. I ran out a year or so ago and I think I mostly used it for cards as I primarily create 8x8's for gifts and I have to love you a lot to make one. Anywho...I found a pack at a thrift store for $1!!! wooohoo, more cards from these wonderful papers. It is a fall pack but I don't think the blue/browns are that seasonal. The other half of the papers are greens, golds and browns with leaves. These have flourishes...very universal.
Here is the sketch I used.
I used the CM printed paper for the background, sentiment strip and the horse and butterfly die cut. There were several coordinating prints from which to chose. I punched the scallop from a glitter scrap. I inked up the wood embellishment with the QQ inks. Finally, I grabbed a CM sticker from the Farm and Ranch set.
Ingredients:
Creative Memories Bountiful 8x8 paper pack
Creative Memories sticker
Cricut horse die cut
Stampin Up Bitty Butterfly and 7/8" scallop punch
Stampin Up Dragonfly Dreams sentiment
