BIRTHDAY NO: 2

As I mentioned in my previous post, I have a number of Birthdays coming up (non-family!) and I just love giving handmade cards.  This little cutie is an Easel Card.  They are fun to make and have a real WOW factor to them.  I have used the All a Flutter Butterfly, which is sold as a separate stamp from the Stampin' Up! A la Catre range.  At just $15.95, it is a great way to start your stamp collection.

I have added Dazzling Diamonds to the flight path and it really shimmers beautifully in the light.  A trio of brads holds the card open so it can be admired, but there is also room for a message behind them.  The sentiment is a sneak peak of a divine punch set coming out in the new catalogue which launches on the 1st of September.  Can't wait to show you more creations with new and exciting product!

Stamps:  Perfect Punches, All a Flutter
Card:  Chocolate Chip, So Saffron, Very Vanilla
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie
Accessories: Piercing tool & mat, brads, adhesive, 2 way Glue Pen, Dazzling Diamonds, Chocolate Chip Marker, Cutter Kit
