Giving Thanks...


Hi! 

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend.  I am so chuffed...why??? Because it RAINED!!! I mean big huge spots of rain!  Unfortunately it was in the night, but hey ho, I'm a happy lass!!  
I made this card below for a friend as a little thanks for doing something for me recently.  Never done holes in a card before but quite happy with how it worked out.  Also, I was soooooooooo pleased that I found my spellbinders butterfly die - I thought I had lost it!   Be ready to see many more cards in the future with this butterfly on it, I love it!



 Recipe: Prima Botanical card, Sizzix circle die, Spellbinders butterfly die, pearls from stash, Keiser Rub Ons, Embossing folder (for butterfly)

I would also like to enter it into the following challenges:
Crafty Anns #57 - Whats New - Prima Botanical card
Card Makin Mamas - Use something old - my butterfly Spellbinder die
2 Sisters Challenge #75 - Embossing - my butterfly is embossed

 Thank you so much for stopping by!!

Pin It Now!

Like all things Butterfly and like your Butterfly creation. Especially like the white embossed Butterflies & blue color. Not sure I've seen that Spellbinders Butterfly die. What die set # is it & yr is it (item # & yr is on pkg if you still have that)? I found the Spellbinders Heart Circles die that I was looking for at Michaels yesterday 50% off. Thanks for entering the Raise the Bar Circles/Rings challenge.
