Flutter on By

So welcome back to my blog and back to regular (well as regular as I can manage!!) posting.  We are back and incredibly relaxed from the week at the coast.  So now with the hot weather upon us, the air conditioners on, I've been able to find a few moments to create cards again.  Mainly when Jess is sleeping and not trying to sit on top of me to play with it all!!

So I had to share a cute little card I made for a girl's birthday party.  It was so fun to make birthday cards for girls, usually I'm making them for the boys!!
 

Isn't the little butterfly cute!  I used lots of punches on her including the wings which  I had stamped first.

I have finished off the card with a chipboard number 5, coloured with sponged ink and coated in purple glitter glue.  I've used a piece of organza ribbon to tie around for interest.  The silver edges of the ribbon  matched so perfectly!!

So here's what I used:

Stamps: Teeny Tiny Sentiments & You are Loved
Inks: Almost Amethyst & Early Espresso
Papers: Whisper White, Basic Black, Concord Crush & Wisteria Wonder
Other: Ribbon, Chipboard numbers, bling & Early Espresso Marker
Punches: Circle, Heart & Word Window

So flutter on by and I'll be back soon with even more butterflies!!
