BUTTERFLY CHALLENGE CARD

Hi and welcome to my blog all my very talented
friends and visitors.
May I say a big welcome to my newest follower,
and thank you so much for choosing to follow me.
I do hope you return to see what I am up to as
often as you can.

Sorry I have not been about commenting for a
few days, I have been having difficulty with my
Browser.
I did not heed the warning my DH always uses
if it's not broken don't try to mend it.
Well I kept getting a pop up saying my Firefox
was out of date, but it was working fine, so I 
updated it not heeding my DH warning, and it
has been giving so much jib, that DH is going
to uninstall it, later today.

Well on to my card for today, this was made for
a lady who used to come to my club I used to 
run, as I was asked to her surprise Birthday party,
and I thought I would incorporate the Butterfly
Challenge which was to use an embossed 
butterfly or butterflies.

This is a 8"x8" size card and a bag I made to
match.
I inked up my Teresa Collins embossing folder
with a yellow pan pastel, which doesn't show in
the photo much.
I used the Sue Wilson Austrian Vienna Die.
The flower I made a few months ago and never
used this one.
I dry embossed, and heat embossed my
butterflies out of some snippets card.

Thank you for your visit, time, and the wonderful
comments you make on my work.
Lots of crafty love.

 I would like to enter this into the following
challenges.

PURPLE AND WHITE CARD

Hi and welcome to my blog all my friends, and
visitors.
Thank you sooooooo! much for your visit and
the wonderful comments you make about my
work.

Well we had singing practice at my place yesterday afternoon, and we are one person
short now so there is only 4 of us singing, and
the keyboard player.
Started practicing Christmas songs, ready for
our shows at Christmas.

Now today I have a card I made just because
I had this idea, and it's for nobody in particular,
so there is no sentiment on it.

This is a 8"x8" size card.
I used my cosmic shimmer glue dots around
the edge of my purple card, these are not very
good as mine are at least  2years old, and 
not working so well, will have to buy more.
I then inked my white card with clear embossing
ink, and dusted it all over with white silvery 
mica powder, which doesn't show up too well
in the photo. 
The mica powder is at least 8 years old, and it's from Lindy's Stamping Gang.
I then cut out 3 of the Sue Wilson dies called
Fern Trio in the center.
Next I embossed the card with a Teresa Collins
embossing folder.
I added some double sided sticky paper to the
back of my cut out design, and Mica Flaked it
with Indigo Blu Mica Flakes called Eton Mess.
I then put the Fern Trio back over the mica flakes.
I made my organza flower by cutting out some
organza material into circles by hand, pinning
them together with a brad, and using my heat
gun to curl them.

Thank you again for your visit and time.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
