Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity!
why: This posting showcases my latest design team/owner inspiration 'critters' card for Critter Crazy Challenges (CCC). In the year since I've become owner, I've featured butterflies or moths several times. They are my favorite insect!! When I was a young girl, maybe about 8 years old, when a teacher of another class/age level, told me that butterflies were like fluttering flowers. That phrasing has always stuck in my thoughts. And since I also love flowers (check my wardrobe, scarves, jewelry), the analogy got hard-wired! The theme is anything goes with featured critter (AGFC= code).
when: #107 starts February 1-25, 2026.
what: Project #1: Butterflies--So Pretty and Magical
how-to & vendor notes for #1:
1. pink CS base cut to 5.5" square= Art Skills
2. vellum (printed with the gold and pink butterflies) = pack = Crafter's Square
3. the large layered plastic overlay with matching CS bottom focal butterfly = 1 of 3 pack = Crafter's Square (found these near the flower arranging/wreath/candle products rather than the wall decal stickers or the puffy stickers)
4. pinks and green enamel dots = Fancy Pants Designs (same 5 color pack)
5. gold puffy round dot sticker = Recollections (multicolor and multi size pack)
6. two text strip stickers = sticker book Snow Pine Lodge by Simple Stories
7. black stamp pad to ink the perimeter edges = Hero Arts
