HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY COLORFUL CREATIONS! BLOG HOP

Hey all! Welcome to the Colorful Creations Blog Hop! If you have arrived here from Karen's Blog you are on Kathy's blog- The Beautiful Life. If you have stumbled across this by chance and want to play along then you can head back to the Colorful Creations Site to start at the beginning. You should see the event banner that looks like this:



Colorful Creations has been created as a place where members can rally together as a crafting community, showcase their crafting talents, share their ideas, learn, and participate in exciting challenges. Our Design Team is here for you - to provide inspiration, to answer questions, or even just chat!!

Hello and welcome. I am Kathy Floen, one of the Design Team Members of Colorful Creations. For my part in all of these wonderful blog challenges I am doing an Altered Canvas. I LOVE altered projects. They are fun and I really can step out of the box and just be creative. :) I truly love them! :)

I love butterflies! They represent so much for me. :) Beauty, love, nature, growing, so much! :) So here is my canvas:
It really is self explanatory! :) I tried to capture the essence of how I feel as a person and how the butterfly represents me.

So, those of you who know me and follow/read my blog...you know I can't do a BLOG HOP without some BLOG CANDY! :) Colorful Creations is also giving away some FUN goodies also so that's a BONUS!! To get into the drawing for the grand prize (and other prizes) being given away by the group make sure you join the fun! All entries will receive (2) points towards the COLORFUL CREATIONS ANNIVERSARY GRAND PRIZE PACKET. For details on winning the Grand Prize, go HERE.  BUT....here is my candy:
