Butterflies a Plenty

Today is my last post featuring the Butterfly Bundle # 135311(clear)

 which you can order here by clicking here BUNDLE

I decided on using the punch a little differently on this card.  I punched the 3 small butterflies on the Gingham Garden DSP #129310 and used the Island Indgo layer as the peek-a-boo backing. 

The lager butterfly, Elegant Butterfly #127526, was punched and I then added a small butterfly to its center and finished it off by adding Basic Rhinestone Jewels down the center.

I added a doilie from Delicate Doilies Sizzlits #126999 layering it with a scallop and a sentiment from Blessings from Heaven #123052.

 I also added a liner to the envelope using the Envelope die. I just love the pizzazz  lining the envie gives.

I hope you enjoyed the week of BUTTERFLIES.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact me @ bernadettebliss@gmail.com.

Have a wonderful and restful weekend.

Stay CRAFTY!

Butterfly #3 and MOJO310

Today's card is not only featuring some more of those sweet butterfly's

 available from the Butterfly Bundle #135311(clear),

 but the MOJO 310 sketch for the week.

I used one of my favorite SU papers, Eastern Elegance 130131.  I seem always to be drawn to the beautiful Coastal Cabana and Crushed Curry.  I just recently received the Blessings from Heaven #123052 set that includes 6 uplifting sentiments.  I used one of the Ovals Collection dies for the sentiment and finished it off with three bitty butterflies and pearl accents.

Butterflies #2

 

 I'm posting another card today using Papillon Potpourri and the Bitty Butterfly that is part of the bundle offer that I mentioned yesterday. 

This is headed out today to my next door neighbor who was just in the hospital. She is such a sweetheart and I know she will love the colors in this card.

I also used the new Thinlits Circle Card #133480 and completed the set with a matching envelope using the new Envelope Punch Board #133774.

All I can say, I'm really loving these two new products from SU.

Happy Day

Just a quick and card I made for my 5 year old grand daughter several days ago and just getting it posted today. I wanted to get it made and mailed out before all the "craziness" of moving took over.

She had called to tell me she was having a little sister in early Fall. She is so excited and thought she needed a card to let her know we were so happy for her and knew she would make a wonderful BIG sister.

Praying for You

 Today I am posting a card that I will link up to MOJO Monday (287) and Word Art Wednesday.

 

We recently had a BIL lose his Mom and I needed to make a sympathy card. I just love the combination of colors in the Sycamore Street DSP (a SAB free item),

 and felt it was appropriate to use it.

Wedding Favors

 It seems like yesterday got away from me and I didn't get a project up like I wanted to. Sorry.

Today's project is one that I have had rolling around in my head for several days. I guess I have been thinking weddings. I have2 daughters who have Anniversaries in April and one this coming September. I had made all the favors for all three weddings. I guess I was missing doing that!

The 2013 Colors of the Year for weddings is Mint Green and Pink. I'm not usually a pastel gal, but these two colors together do speak soft and vintage, which I do like. Linda Heller, my upline,  had sent me this  Kraft Gift box and die cut Lolly about 6 weeks ago. She had designed the box around her Everybunny stamp set tutorial. I had put this away to make up at a later time, but when I was thinking "weddings", I knew exactly how I would use it. Thanks Linda!

The paper on the box are from the Spring catalog, Tea for Two DSP,

 Certainly Celery CS and Pretty in Pink CS.

The beautiful ribbon is SU's 3/8" Striped Organdy Ribbon in Old Olive. I also used Basic Pearls, the large Butterfly and Bitty Butterfly, Large Circle Scallop, Scallop punches and "smashed" the Soda Pop Tops. I stamped the 1" circle with the words from the Collage Curios stamp set. I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue, glue gun and Stampin' Dimensionals to hold things together.

Now how cute this would be to use as favors. You could put a piece of wedding cake or some sweet candy choices inside. Chocolate, of course!

Of course , this box can be used for more then favors. How would you use it? 

Have a great weekend and stay CRAFTY!

Thank God

Today's card is one that I'm linking to MOJO284 Blog and Word Art Wednesday Blog. I originally was going to do a black, white and red combo with this sketch and may still, but the Print Poetry DSP 129312 which is in the Spring catalog, "spoke" to me again and besides it is certainly a Spring looking paper. Appropriate for this time of year. This is just a 4 1/2" x 6 1/2" pack that has 48 sheets of paper: 4 ea. of 12 double-sided designs. This is my fourth card using this pack. 

Can you tell I like designing with it!
