Butterflies and Flowers

Hi everyone,

 Friday again already and my day off, so I am able to post this week's creations.

This one uses Tonic butterfly circle die, circle scalloped nestabilities, grand labels 11 (for the scalloped background paper) and a paper punched butterfly.  I used some of the tiny butterflies from cutting a yellow butterfly circle and added a sprinkling with some gem centres to finish the card.

This image is from Joanna Sheen's cd rom "In Other Words".  I printed it on some pearl digital paper recently purchased on special offer from Craftwork Cards, it gives a nice subtle sheen to the image.  I printed two of the image and decoupaged parts of it.  Background paper from First Edition Family Ties paper pad and ribbon and button from stash. 


 Another image from "In Other Words" cd-rom, this time cut with Spellbinders Marvellous Square die, again I decoupaged parts of the image.  The background and image were sewn on by machine (not sure that it is quite as straight as it could be).  The background paper is double-sided so I alternated squares to achieve the patchwork effect backgound.

 Thank you for looking and for any comments you wish to make.

 Have a happy crafting weekend!
