Sweet Butterflies

Hi Guys

Well over on Try It On Tuesdays this week we have been challenged to use Butterflies whether singularly or plural.

I took a piece of Marina Mist c/s and cut this out with the scallop circle die and stamped over it with the word stamp from the Strength and Hope Set.

I used the Beautiful Butterflies die to cut out my butterflies in Melon Mambo, Regal Rose and Pretty in Pink and added some pearls in the middle of the butterfly. 

I used the Curly Cute set and my stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp the Happy Birthday with Marina Mist and punched it out with the Decorative Label Punch to punch it out.  I also punched two more in Melon Mambo and Regal Rose to add a bit of decoration.

Because this is an easel card I have added a bit of Marina Mist grosgrain ribbon to help it stay open.

Now all you need to do is go on over to Try It On Tuesdays to see what my teamies have produced this week.

Thanks for looking, I hope you like and until next time

Until next time

Sincerely Yours and Strawberries

Hi Guys

Well I am sorry for being absent for so long, I have no excuse other than the fact that life took over.

As I said in my last post we were at Sincerely Yours in Lincoln last weekend and what a fab time we had.  We met lots of lovely people both new and old.

Here are the four of us at the beginning of the day.  I wish we had taken a photo of us at the end of the day as our smiles were not so wide because we were all shattered.

One of the things that people kept asking about were some strawberries that I had made and I promised a tutorial by the end of the week and here it is.

I forgot to say that I used the Designer Series Paper Stack for my strawberry and Old Olive for the leaves.

I hope you enjoy this tutorial and until next time
