yesterday...tomorrow...

first off...happy memorial day. a day to pay tribute to those who are not with us anymore, especially those who fought to save our freedom. thank you!

now, on to the h{ippity} hop blog hop! i got a new box of {ippity} goodness last week and i've been waiting to bust out one of the new sets. of course, i would love to open them all up, but that wouldn't do me much good, since i need to sell them!! so i picked the now and forever kit to use on this card. i've seen the flowers used over the past few weeks and love them! my friend suzi is going to chuckle when she sees this card! i also used the paper pack from the spring collection which has the fab paper from october afternoon. so stinking cute! my friend, sarah, made some atcs that had stamping on patterned paper. i loved it so i was inspired to try it out (other than just for paper piecing). i love how the butterfly flourishes look on the striped paper!
