Itty Bitty Butterflies

Anyone remember those little butterflies?

Did you forget you'd got them somewhere?

Came in handy for a sparkly card with those large letters again

Butterfly Basics

Hello Honey.

That's the colour of these two cards made at a recent training day,

along with Basic Grey and Very Vanilla.

It made a nice change to go vanilla,

I've used a lot of Whisper White lately.

Sorry the picture's not the best,

but I'm not at my best at the mo!

Have a great week

Butterfly Basics

I've had a challenging fortnight, including my birthday,

Mother's Day,

Alan badly cutting a wrist, and a rotten cold,

so I've lots of blogging to catch up on......

For my Team celebration, I supplied some makes to go with their gifts

Here's one shamelessly cased from Vanessawebb,net

which I adored making, and stroking!

We used Irresistibly Yours DSP inked with Coastal Cabana Ink,

stamped over using Butterfly Basics, and edged with silver embossing powder.

The next layer used the stencil from the Artisan Embellishment Kit,

silver ink and again edged with silver EP.

Topped with two butterflies, the smaller again in silver EP,

all topped off with a silver button.

Here's what some of them came up with.

Clever girls!

Here's what we used:

Notelets

I'll start with my favourite which was taken from our Stampin' Up! newsletter

First make an aperture by cutting scrap paper with, in this case, a butterfly.

Use the aperture to stamp script background, ink over,

then add pearls and flower.

Notelets

I decided to make some Notelets to put in my

Stationery Holder.

I got the idea from Debbie Kolberg, to make single layer cards,
using different stamping techniques.

This is the inside of the folder

Come back tomorrow for details of the Notelets....

Elegant Butterfly

This was for a lovely lady at the Lace group I go to.....

I tied some ribbon around to make the 'antenna', and used lots of layers using various punches.

Colours:  Pool Party, Calypso Coral.

Lattice embossing folder, Beautiful Butterflies die, Elegant Butterfly punch, Scallop Trim Border punch,

Scallop Oval punch, Large Oval punch.

And a few Rhinestones of course!
