Beautiful Butterflies

By
There is a new challenge today at Make My Monday and in case you hadn't guessed the theme is 'Beautiful Butterflies'
Here is my card


I was very pleased how this card turned out - I nearly binned it half way through! I was colouring it and until I added the glitter I didn't like it all. It really does sparkle in real life especially with the rhinestones down the side too. The border was created by stamping the small butterfly and then cutting around the edges - I drew a faint pencil line to guide me too.

Materials - Stampin' Up
Stamps: Swallowtail, Papillon Potpourri
Ink: Smoky Slate, Soft Sky, Marina Mist, Midnight Muse
Card Stock: Very Vanilla, Midnight Muse
Accessories: Bitty Butterfly Punch, Basic Rhinestones

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

I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
