Butterfly Wedding

Good Morning!

Ok I know, another butterfly lol!

This is a commissioned wedding card and the brief was blue and butterflies. So this is using a Craft Robo file I bought from Crafts U Print (the link is at the top of my page) and a Spellbinders die along the bottom.

I also used a fancy corner punch and finished with gems. 

Tip - I couldn't find exactly the right colour shimmery card so I printed blue onto white shimmery card by insert a shape into a Word document and colour filling it!

This is another entry into 

Less Is More - Punches/Die Cuts

Thanks for looking! :D

Rugby Dad!

Hey again!
Well it seems I'm on a roll this morning! 3rd card so far! This one is for my friend Jackie's rugby mad Dad!

The image is from Crafts U Print. It was a decoupage sheet but I just used one image for this card. I made the background and rugby posts with some scrap card and the sentiment is pc printed. A simple, but effective card I think! :)
I am entering this into the following challenges......
Simply Create - All About You Dad
Ooh La La - Happy Birthday
Ladybug Crafts Ink - It's All About Males
Jen's on her way round so I'm sure there will be more cards to come after our crafting afternoon! :)

Second Butterfly

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!
