Butterfly Birthday Card

I bought a stack of these punched butterflies on Craftumi because I don't own a butterfly punch. I had a completely different project in mind for them but when I saw the colours of them I  knew they were perfect for this card. Some of them actually look like they were punched from road maps. Too cool!

Such an easy design and you could use it with any punchies. Simple yet effective.

And here's the inside that nine times out of ten I forget to photograph.

Happy card making!

First Card For 2011.

Well, here I am! Back for 2011. I hope everyone had a fabulous Chrissy and New Year. 

I've had 3 weeks off work and expected to get so much done in the craft room, starting with a big tidy up. The tidy up was done and didn't it look lovely and uncluttered! I had some lovely new Imaginise and Graphic 45 papers to play with too. Very inspirational you would think, wouldn't you? The only thing lacking was time. There was none. I managed to make only one card and I'm back to work on Tuesday!!

Here it is. The one and only using Graphic 45's new once Upon A Springtime papers.

And a closeup of the beautiful little Prima butterfly.
