I began with a 7" sq. white card, I first added silver Mirri card mat. Then a sheet of wood grain paper, Weathered Wood, from a Hunkydory Essential A5 book, From a Little Book of Denim I began with a page of a denim pocket with roses. I fussy cut, layer 1-the pocket and attached roses. layer 2 - fussy cut two large roses, fussy cut the butterfly. All except the butterfly were added with 3d foam pads, the butterfly just glue on the ?thorax. From pages for layers 1 & 2 I cut the roses from the bottom page and added these flat on the right side of the card. The greeting is from Just My Type Seniment paper pad from Hunkydory. Total pages used only 3, another card can be made with the remaining 3 pages. I love the little books.

Use 2 Dies

Hello, thanks for your visit. Today we begin a new challenge at Make My Monday. Billie a has chosen #271 Use 2 Dies. To see the remainder of the design team's inspiration, please visit the blog.

I began with a smaller than usual card, it being a 5" sq. white scallop edged card. I left it white, the only additions being the 2 dies and a stamped sentment. The circle is by Hunkydory - Moonstone - Sketchy Nesting Frame Circle, the flower is a stamp and die set, which I received from a friend, no maker's name available. I coloured the flower with Promarkers. Added a few crystal gems. Have fun. 

 

Up-Lifting Sentiment

Hello, hope you are well. The weather is pretty dismal her in the UK, rain and more rain. Today we begin a new challenge at Alphabet Challenges. Melanie has chosen U is for Up-Lifting - to add a positive/encouraging sentiment to your card. We could all at some time need a little up-lifting thoughts. To see the inspirational cards from the design team, please visit the blog. 

We currently have a design team call for one or two interested crafters to join the team. All details are on the blog. I look forward to hearing from you.

I decided the sentiment was so important - Smile- it looks good on you, so I kept the card fairly simple. a 5 "yellow mat added to a 6" white card. To this I added a piece of light weight card from a 12" sheet of pretty Ciao Bella paper. I thought this was enough to convey the message. Have fun crafting.
