So let me share some of my favorite things with you! If you've ever seen any of my projects it's probably obvious that my all time favorites are butterflies and bling! As you can see in my layout below, I used two gorgeous butterfly embellishments, one from Prima and the other from K & Co.  There's lots of bling too...I sprayed Glimmer Mist on the background & the handmade flowers, a few of the flowers have Stickles along the edges of the petals, there is a flourish of Prima's Say It in Pearls, and the Prima butterfly is loaded with sequins & glitter.

So my challenge for you is to create a layout using butterflies and bling.  The added twist is that I would also like for you to use the following sketch I made:

So....to sum it up:

1. I would like to see layouts using the sketch...you can flip it, rotate it, or even use a different number of photos...just as long as your layout still somewhat resembles it.
2. On your layout I would like you to use butterflies...it can be a butterfly embellishment, diecut, sticker, patterned paper, or even a photo of a butterfly.
3. You must also use some kind of "bling"...you can use Glimmer Mist, Stickles, glitter, sequins, rhinestones...you get the idea!

I hope you will play along with my challenge...just don't forget to upload your layout to the Colorful Creations Gallery as well as on my blog using Mr. Linky below. Also...everyone who completes my challenge (and meets all three requirements) will have their name put into a random drawing for a surprise RAK.  I'm really looking forward to seeing what everyone does!
