Butterfly basics

Hello there, so glad you dropped by

Today's card I made some time ago for my Aunt, she just loves butterflies. I think a saw a similar one on Pinterest but don't know who did it.

Again I'm using lots of old stock (I don't like to just leave it on the shelf, what about you?) but there are plenty of new colours etc that would be perfect for it.

I made some really up to date, beautiful butterfly cards the other day with my friend Peg, so will show you them, some time soon. Until then take care and happy crafting.

Inks: Wild wasabi, Wisteria wonder

Card stock: Whisper white

DSP: Irresistibly yours (retired)

Minion's punch art

Hello there, so glad you dropped by

Today's  a card I made a couple of weeks ago, but unfortunatley I can't remember who's tutorial I used (so sorry, if you see my post let me know and I will happily add your name and link to this post). My youngest grand son is crazy about Minions so I thought I'd have a go, mine isn't quite the same as the tutorial but I think he'll like it. 

I did two white circle on the back side of the card, one right behind the eye with a computer generated happy birthday, you're 2 today and another to the left side near the bottom with a computer generated greeting on it.

Don't you think he looks cute! (love him to bits)
