Elements of Style butterfly

Here's one of the cards  that I didn't finish yesterday.

A really CAS card.

Simply stamped the flowers and leaves from Elements of style,

coloured them in using a blender pen with Rose Red, Regal Rose and Lucky Limeade ink.

Used the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die to cut the butterfly which I raised on dimensionals.

Sentiment from Just Believe.

I love it!!

Another Beautiful Butterfly.

On Saturday I had my monthly Saturday Morning Workshop and one of the projects my ladies made was this beautiful butterfly made with the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die.
This is Chris's (yet another Chris!) and she chose to make hers in tangerine Tango, which is a colour that I haven't used much at all - and I think it's beautiful - well done Chris!.

Flutterby Butterfly

Chris (sis-in-law) came over yesterday for our weekly crafting get-together and we made 3 projects which I will show you over the next few days.
My favourite was this little butterfly, which was inspired by one that I saw on my SU Mummy Julie's blog

The butterflies are cut using the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die (which is exclusive to Stampin Up) and we ran them through the Elegant Bouquet Textured impressions Embossing folder (another SU exclusive).
Basic Pearls were used for the head and thorax and flower stamens were used as antennae.
I am very pleased with the results.

This is my butterfly
