Good evening LIMettes!
I am feeling much more refreshed today, thanks for your wishes :) I think it will be a couple of weeks before I am 100%, but I'm getting there! :)
Anyway, over the last week I was reminded that I had £5 worth of free downloads on Crafts U Print from when they had their upgrade. So I went for a wander over there and found some wonderful Craft Robo files, one of which has provided the focal point for this card......
These really are fantastic files and anyone who has a Craft Robo, or any other electrical die cutting machine should go take a look at them! Anyway, this is a 2 layer butterfly, the bottom is solid and cut from purple pearlescent card, and the top 'lace effect' layer is cut from lilac pearlescent paper. I then curled each layer to give definition and attached them together to the card. I only stuck them in the middle so when the card is moved, the top wings 'flutter'......it's very effective!
The border is a Spellbinders (I think) and the sentiment was computer generated and then I glittered the first letters with Butterfly Trails. Finished with a few gems to link everything together and I'm quite pleased with the result! :D
Hope to get some more made this week so see you then!

ReplyDeleteHi Lizy, Wow what a stunning card - that butterfly is just wow! I've got a Craft Robo but don't use it at all as I can't get it to do what I want! Re blogger problems, I've swapped to Google Chrome and so far, so good! Sarah
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this card, the butterfly ofcourse and the wow border. The sentiment font is fab with a touch of glitter.
