Lynn Hayes - Fascinating Friday's Featured Artist

Fascinating Friday's at Paperie Designs' Studio is back with yet another fantastic artist... This time our featured artist is Lynn Hayes of Creative Crafts by Lynn , I am sure you all are aware of her excellence in creativity and fun elements in her cards. So, I thought it was time to know her a little more :) Please check out the link here Creative Crafts to get an insight into her life and her creative journey :)

 Now to my card, inspired by the colors at Color Q #206, sketch at CAS Colors and Sketches #42, embossing at Simon Says Stamp challenge - Emboss it and use of markers at Addicted to stamps and more - Make ur Mark... I came up with this card
To make this I drew horizontal lines with a pencil and a scale and colored them with my Sharpie markers (yeah.. I like Sharpie a lot). The butterflies (from Martha Stewart)were stamped and there opposite side was used to color them in one shade (coz, I don't have the butterfly die set ). The upper half of the card was embossed (with Brick embossing folder from Darice). Finally, butterflies were stuck one over the other with glue dots and foam dots. Sentiment (from Paper Sweeties - you make me smile) was stamped and pearls were added to finish the card :)

The challenges are -
1. Color Q #206
2. CAS Colors and Sketches #42
3. Simon Says Stamp challenge - Emboss it 

4. Addicted to stamps and more - Make ur Mark

 Thank you visiting and leaving me a comment :)
