A Birthday Butterfly Easel Card

Hi Everyone,

This card is for my daughter's friend Renae who's having a party tomorrow.  It's a purple themed party for a girl that really loves black, so I've combined the two colours.  Come and have a look at this card.




I've used Watercolor Wings stamp for the top of my layered butterfly here combined with Butterfly Thinlit dies.  The cardstock for this card is Basic Black, Wisper White and Perfect Plum.  I've also combined some Wisteria Wonder in the form of ribbon and inks.  The Whisper White panel on the card front has been embossed with the Fluttering Embossing folder and I've cut the panel where the butterfly sits with the Deco Label framelits.  Come and see the rest of the card.




Here is a side view so you can see how the easel sits.  The greeting used is from the Butterfly Basics stamp set and the 16 is stamped with the Memorable Moments stamp set and punched out with the Hexagon punch.  Here is a closeup.




I hope the Birthday Girl likes this card.  I've been told that most teens don't like cards, particularly when they get to this age.   Oh well, we will see.  I can only hope. xx

Here's the full view of the card again.




Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Have a great day.

Light up your Christmas

Hi Everyone, You all know how I love my Easel Cards right?  Well I've added a little light to them in the form of the little battery operated candles.  Neil bought me some boxes of them online.  I've been playing around with a couple of different designs which are for an upcoming class of very Special Christmas cards with my group but thought you might like to see them.  This is the first one I've done using the retired stamp set Christmas Lodge.  It's a gorgeous set with this beautiful tree and really suits a vintage style Christmas Card.  I've also used the Deco Label Framelits which are fast becoming a favourite and the Beautifully Baroque and Fancy Fan Embossing Folders. The Cardstock is Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla. I have the light on so you can see the gorgeous effect from the little candle.  Here is a photo when it's off. This is how it looks from the side.  It's like a tent.  Extra card was added to the len
