This is my last post for a while ... it's also my last design as a member of the Create with Connie and Mary challenge ... but, onto today's challenge! Here's a new challenge from Create with Connie and Mary! This week, the sketch is rather interesting. All those elements on the side ... I'm a centered kind of girl so this was a bit difficult and I'm not entirely sure I love the result. I'd just gotten the Cupcake punch, something I thought I'd never do ... but I love the idea of making clouds! So, I punched out some clouds and then used them as a mask to sponge some blue ink over the white, added a few more clouds with dimensionals.
Hope you like it and are inspired to create! Please check out the challenge and play along with us over at Create with Connie and Mary.

I know what you mean about having to centre things, but Renee this is GORGEOUS! Love the way you've created a little scene (the 'grass' looks fabulous; great textured look). The bottom edge of the card is super-cute too. Hugs to you ... hope things settle down a little for you, love.
Renee, I love this card ~ I own the butterfly punch (and many other toys that have been unloved) ~ anyway...you've inspired me to get that punch out and create with this ~ thanks so much ~ you will me missed by me, but I totally understand! Blessings to you *hugs*
You did a WONDERFUL job on this challenge! Good for you!
This is just SO cute! I love the clouds! The whole scene is just wonderful! I will miss your wonderful creations! Take care!
I will really miss seeing your creations. They are always so good. I've shared many of them with friends. God is in control--blessings to you and your family.
Renee-I sorry to hear that you won't be posting for a while. I took some time off from stamping and have just started up again. When I looked at your blog again, I felt like I had come home! Your creations are always so clean and beautiful. It seems that the fad now is to pile on everything in the room-too distracting for me! I love your style! I understand about stamping needing to be in the background of life for a while. God Bless you! Remember, HE is in control!
Oh, how clever Renee! Love the cupcake clouds masked--what a great idea. I agree with you on the centering but you've done a fantastic job here...as usual. I will miss your work on the DT...been great working with you. ((hugs))
Great card for spring! Butterflies just make people happy, don't you think! Loved having you on the design team and part of Control Freaks. Best Wishes!
Dear Renee,
even so I have just recently found your blog and started to love it, I do understand what you are going thru. I myself have a serious problem with depression and know what it means just to do it for the thing and not having fun anymore.
I wish you with all your other things you are working on all the best. Maybe in the future there will be something creative that makes your finger itch for it by only thinking about it and you'll have fun again.
Yours
Bridget

Such a great card, Renee...love how you sponged the clouds and made a little scene for your butterfly!!! We have enjoyed your design work the past year...and hope you join us again in the future at Create with Connie and Mary!
Taking one day at a time...I can understand more than you will ever know. God's blessing dear one. I look forward to seeing more of your creations when 'your' time allows...hugs~ jane
