Side Step Butterfly Card

By
Yikes - it's cold today. I'm sat at my computer all bundled up in a thick cardi - might even have to have a hot water bottle!!
Today's card is a side step card. I demo'd it at a workshop a while ago and had it made up but not decorated. It uses Stampin' Up Butterfly punch and Pocket Silhouettes stamp set


The little butterflies are from a mini punch and I don't know if you can see but there is some silver thread wrapped around the large butterflies leaving a bit for their antennae. Each panel on the different sections has been sponged with ink before being stamped with the foliage.
I am entering this card into the Flutter By Wednesday's challenge - you need to include a butterfly on your card. Hope you like it, bye for now - Jacqueline xx

    A really gorgeous card Jacqueline. Love the butterflies and stamping.
    It's freezing down here as well due to strong winds and I too am sat at my desk bundled up in woollies.
    Let's hope for a better day tomorrow.
    Hugs, Fliss xx

    This is just gorgeous Jacqueline - the sponging is very effective. It's freezing here too but bearing in mind that they're forecasting record lows this winter, I'm saving the hottie and making do with just the blanket for the time being!

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...

My work space is quite long and this week I have managed to use up all available surfaces .........with mess! starting at the left hand end  This is the devestation left from yestersday's Project Tuesday challenge and some atc making.
