Butterfly Cards

-
Today I am making some beautiful butterfly cards. My stash has been rapidly depleted, I gave away some boxes of cards for Christmas. This is a simple card. The first has just one embossed layer and the other I put a colored layer under the embossed top. The flourish is from silhouette design store # 59369 and the butterfly is from Cricuts' Garden Cards. It is nice to have both machines running at one time, it makes everything go a lot faster.
 

 
I hope you like these and will visit again soon.

    There is something so classy about white on white cards. This is so beautiful and the embossing really sets it off. Thanks for joining us at Cards In Envy!

    Karen, What pretty cards! Isn't it interesting how changing the color of one element makes such a striking difference in a card's appearance? Thanks so much for joining us at Cards in Envy. :)

Today, as is most days, I am working on cards.  I just sent off a batch to OWH and I need to get my stack ready to send out again. Next week will be spring break and I thought I would do a spring like card. I just love the Teddy bear parade cartridge and this little bear for St Patrick's day. I used some stickles on his pot of gold and hat band and lots of green paper.  Hope you like this and will come again soon. These are the challenges I will be entering: http://www.ttcrd.blogspot.com/2014/03/through-craft-room-door-march-4.html http://everybody-art-challenge.blogspot.com/2014/03/268.html http://challenges4everybody.blogspot.co.uk/2014/03/challenge-39-anything-goes.html 2 Cute ink - http://2cuteinkchallenges.blogspot.com/2014/03/challenge-101.html http://www.cardsinenvy.blogspot.com/2014/03/think-green-challenge.html http://fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/2014/03/fccb-challenge-200-pick-holiday.html http://ppp-makeitmonday.blogspot.com/2014/03/mim181-with-time-fo...

I found this cute digital image in my library, I don’t know where it came from. But it is so cute and just made me think of Halloween and fall.  I had these cute leaves in a draw loose, and thought they added a nice touch to the card. I used Prismacolor markers and gelly roll pens for coloring the image.  I love the cooler days and this morning I was able to enjoy my coffee on the porch, God knows we need this rain. I checked the gage this afternoon and we got .70 here in north Texas.  Thanks for stopping by.  Sorry the photo is a little crooked.  Hope you like this and come again soon to see what I am working on. I will be entering this card in the following challenges: http://www.jadedblossom.com/2013/10/october-challengeanything-halloween.html http://craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com/2013/10/monday-challenge-115-3d-halloween.html http://www.abcchallenges.blogspot.com/2013/10/abc49-halloween.html http://cisforchallenge.blogspot.com/2013/10/c...

I can’t believe it will be Valentine ’s Day next week. I have a few anniversaries this month also to make cards for.  I used my Cricut to make this wonderful bear from the Teddy Bear Parade cartridge. I embossed the hearts and designed the card from the MOJO sketch.   This turned out so cute.
