Birthday Card With Clay Butterflies

Hello Bloggers,

A pinky card today. I got this DecoTime paper pad at Action the other day... a 1010th paper pad in my collection, but I could  not help it anyway - just loved the colors... Happens to me way too often. Luckily, Action is usually easy on your wallet :)

So... I made this card, and it turned out so tenderly pinky that my inner extreme multi-color guardian got upset, so I droppped a couple of very yellow butterflies onto the card. And some beads. And pearls. And some other shiny  stuff...  :)

Sequins, glitter...

The butterflies are actually made of Creall Do&Dry Lightweight modelling material using some Mod Podge Molds and colored later with Stabilo pens.

Very Floral Birthday Card

Hello Bloggers,

Yet another extremely colorful birthday card today :) Lots of flowers!

The big flower is The Sheena Douglass Perfect Partners Country Cottage Metal Die - Classic Carnations, then there is a whole bunch of roll-ups _and_ my new favorites - Joy!Crafts Vintage Flourishes 6003/0066 Flower 5 Leaf. I just love the roses they make!

The patterned papers I used have a touch of some glitter on the printed flowers but it is a bit tricky to catch it on camera.

The edges are shaped with the Martha Stewart Crafts - Punch Around The Page Set - Cherish. I love MS punches. They are strong enough to punch through a double layer of thick cardstock quite neatly.

• Sheena Douglass Perfect Partners Country Cottage Metal Die - Classic Carnations SD-PPMD-CARN
