It's Whimsy Butterfly~

Happy Whimsy Wednesday!  Did you see the special $1 set that Lindsay posted at

Now, I love this gorgeous butterfly that Lindsay created and when I saw the Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World I knew exactly what I wanted to do for this.

I printed the butterfly on vellum cardstock and colored the back of it with my Copics.  Then I cut it out and popped it up a bit with strips of Tim Holtz "Lost and Found" Paper Stash behind it (I first tried some of this fantastic paper on my Tim Holtz Artful Curio on Saturday's post here and I LOVE IT!), tied some grosgrain ribbon and added the SU Designer Label Punch with the sentiment...what do you think?:
From Whimsy Haven
Whimsy Haven Digital Butterfly and Sentiment
C/S: Tim Holtz Paper Stash: Lost and Found, SU Baja Breeze, Neenah Solar White
COPICS: Y17, Y26, Y28, R02, R20, B00, B21, B24, G07, G09, G21, G24
Accessories: SU Designer Label Punch, Baja Breeze White Grosgrain Ribbon

My Tuesday Trigger inspiration was from the colors, the stripes and the bars of these popsicles:
I'm also entering this into the Wee Memories 'Punch It' challenge, WMC6, to use 'punches' (I used the Designer Label Punch).
