Beautiful Butterflies from Stampin' Up!

I have this card to show you today using the Stampin' Up! Beautiful Butterflies die, I ran the black card through the Big Shot followed by Real Red patterned paper from the Brights Paper Stack and added some jewel pearls.

The main card is crumb cake and I stamped the butterfly from Creative Elements stamp set, the paper is First Edition and the writing of this is all about butterflies.

Well I'm off to sit in the sun as it's another glorious day here in Rock Worcestershire but I think it's the same all over the UK, so enjoy your day whatever you are doing.

Until next time .................... 

Simple but Beautiful Butterflies die

Here are a couple of cards Elsie and I made last week when she popped in for a visit..... well you can't just have tea can you?

We were looking at a sketch of a card and decided to have a go and these are the 2 we made using the fab everyday enchantment designer paper FREE with a £45 order before postage.

we also used the ribbon border punch, scallop edge punch and the lovely Beautiful butterflies die exclusive to Stampin' Up!

Hope your week is going well..... it will soon be the weekend again....

Until next time ............ X

Stampin' Up! Sale a bration 2012 favourite 3

Yesterday was my last play day of the week as it's back to work tomorrow, boo hoo!

I still have to do some last minute preparation for my class on Saturday so hopefully I will have the evenings to do that.  I can't make the final decision of what to do, do you know what I mean when you have lots of choice and want to pick what the class would like best?

So I might leave it until the last minute and let them choose.......

so onto the card I made yesterday........

The most used stamps and paper from this years Sale a Bration for me has to be Fresh Vintage, Everyday Enchantment and Elementary Elegance and that's exactly what I've used on this card along with the Beautiful Butterflies die and Beautiful Wings embosslits

Here is a closer look 

and an even closer look at the beautiful butterfly

Hope you are all having a great week

Until next time ............

Groan and moan back to work today........

anyway I got to make a couple of cards yesterday and here is one of them.

I used some of the Springtime Vintage paper that will be retiring at the end of this month from the mini catalogue.  The base card is River Rock and I distressed the edges using basic grey ink.

The swirl is from Season of Joy stamp set (not retiring) and the sentiment is Oval All stamp set using the matching Oval punches.

The butterfly is made with the Beautiful Wings embosslits die and Beautiful Butterfly Die.

Hope you all have a good day.

Beautiful butterfly Baby Blossoms gift tags and box

Going home today.... yippee!

Here is another project from my weekend crafting, I just love the Baby Blossoms stamp set and started out by stamping onto one of the die cut Beautiful Butterflies and then it turned into this set of gift tags, I think they make a great gift idea and will probably use this set as my next hostess set so if you would like this set then why not book a party with me?

I decorated some envelopes to fit the tags as well and used some coin envelopes for this, the little one's that children take lunch money to school with (well I did but that was many many moons ago)

A close up of the tag and the front of the box/bag

here is a side view, I got a bit camera happy tee hee

Until next time...........be crafty.........
