Butterflies for Allsorts

Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge time again and it is my choice this week.

Butterflies of course, easy choice for me.

A nice, bright card using Tattered Lace Pindot Butterfly die.

I embossed a sheet of vellum with a CE butterfly folder but it doesn,t show too good on my pics.

Added some gold mesh ribbon and some of my tiny vellum butterflies.

I put two of the die cut butterflies together which I think looks nice.

Sponsor is Tattered Lace

Flying home today.

2 DP for Allsorts

Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge this week is hosted by Kath.

She has chosen a theme of using at least 2 designer papers.

I used two sheets from an LOTV paper pad - Timeless Victorian.

This lovely large flower was in some candy I was lucky to win.

I inked all the edge and the corners with Plum Cobbler Colour Cloud. 

I embellished with two of my stick pins, some ribbon John Next Door gave me with one of my pearl gems on the top.

Pins and gems available on my page at top of my blog.

As our sponsor is Tattered Lace, I did set out to use a butterfly cut with their Pinpoint set, then got carried away with the flower.

So here is my another card I have put on the Challenge blog, using the pinpoint butterfly!!!!!

The sentiment is one of John Next Door's, heat embossed in gold.

Two tiny organza bows with two of my tiny butterflies on top.

I used what was left from the two sheets of 8x8 papers inside one of the cards.

Waste not want not!!!!

I have a little Bingo or Tic Tac Toe  on my Facebook Page.
Why not pop over and have a go.

Have a good weekend and make a card to join in the challenge.

Curls and/or Swirls for MAWTT

Good Morning All

Crikey it is soooooo cold here, we had snow yesterday and it was so funny as the Spanish people were coming out and taking photos and the old people were standing at their doors looking out in amazement!!!  I have been told that they have not had snow in this area for over 90 years.
There are loads of posts on Facebook of beaches covered in snow and abit more in and they have had about 4 or 5 inches.
Yesterday we had snow, a little bit of sunshine (you could see the sun shining on the mountains at the back of our village)
Then the rain came and last night 2 thunderstorms!!!!
Now it is raining and cold, so cold.
I cant move from the fire and go in my craft room so it is crafting on my knee!!!!
**********************
Moving Along With The Times Challenge is hosted by Hazel on Team B.

She would like to see Curls or Swirls.

I used my ever faithful Sissix 'Iron Gate' die on top of John Lockwoods kitchen roll/Pixie Powder technique. 

CE Ornate Oval for the sentiment.

All mounted onto card coloured with Gilding Polish.

I added a gorgeous Tattered Lace Butterfly with some pearl dots on body.

I stuck one of my bead danglers in top corner and some gems and pearls in each corner,

I have to have symmetry!!!!

Things with Wings for Allsorts

Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge this week is hosted by our lovely Tracy Mouse.

Things with Wings is the theme so, of course, for me it had to be butterflies.

The paper is from a 12 x 12 pad I bought from C&C when it was on offer.

Satin ribbon with one of my homemade stick Pins.

As our sponsor is Tattered Lace, I used one of their dies for the butterflies.

I used the remainder of the paper to decorate the inside.

CAS for Allsorts

Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge time again and the theme is CAS , chosen by Annie.

I used the Tattered Lace Butterfly die I won From Brenda at Floral Fantasies a while ago.

I'm afraid this is as CAS as it's going to get.

I find it so hard to do, I need to tie my hands up to stop myself from adding a bow or a stick pin or gems  LOL.

Sponsors are

Tattered Lace

and

Digistamp Boutique
