Striking Easter Butterfly

I made this Easter card for my sister who temporarily lives in London, along with a wee package of Easter goodies. It's always nice to recieve cards and pressies when your away from home.
I've used the Big Shot alot to create this card: The Beautiful Butterflies die for the butterfly, the Scallop Circle for the base and the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder for the texture on the butterfly.



Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets: Baroque Motifs, Teeny Tiny Sentiments
Card/Paper: Cherr Cobbler, Very Vanilla, Love Letter DSP
Ink: Cherry Cobbler
Accessories: Beautiful Butterflies die, Scallop Circle die, Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, Wide Oval punch, Antique Brad, sponge

Well I hope she enjoys this card as much as I enjoyed making it!

Fast and Fabulous

I just love this stamp set- Fast and Fabulous, I don't use it nearly enough! It can be earned for free with a qualifing workshop (more info here).
I saw a similar card by Teneale Williams, which I thought was just stunning. Teneale used the Just Believe stamp set, which I don't own (yet!), but Fast and Fabulous did the trick! I definately want this set to see ink more often!
I used the new Decorative Label punch for the sentiment, which I fiddled around a bit to make it smaller.



Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets: Fast and Fabulous, Because I Care
Card/Paper: Baja Breeze, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla
Ink: Baja Breeze, Soft Suede
Accessories: Decorative Label punch, Very Vanilla taffetta ribbon, Top Note die, pearls, sponges
