Butterfly Birthday!

Happy New Year! A bit late I'm afraid! Sorry for my lack of posts just don't seem to have had time to blog even though I have done a little creating!

I had a play with some of the new stamps in the Spring/Summer catalogue to make a card for a friend's birthday. Now that her birthday is past I can show it.
I used a pretty new set called Butterfly Basics which comes with a matching set of framelits to cut out the butterflies. I also used Work of Art to make the background. The flower was fussy cut and popped up with silicone glue as the stems were a bit too narrow to easily use foam pads. I am going to enter this in Time to Craft who are looking for stripes - think my stripes down the side should qualify, and Seize the Birthday without the topping.

Editedto add: Darnell has kindly reminded me of her NBUS challenge, never thought about entering this as it is new stuff and I always think of NBUS as being older stuff! Anyhow I'm heading on over there now to enter.

  5. I think this set is great and your card is delightful. It makes it seem not so cold with such a fun spring card. The shading is beautiful and I'm sure she loved it.
