Butterfly and Blossoms

When I saw this card on Sandy McIver's YouTube video, I couldn't resist having a go!  My finished card is slightly different but definitely inspired by Sandy's beautiful card.

The base of the card is pear pizzazz which has been layered with basic black cardstock and then the In Colours DSP.  I've used the new Framelet Dies Labels Collection which are just fantastic and so easy to use.

I've gone a bit mad on punches!  I've used the Bird Builder punch for the leaves, the Boho Blossoms punch for the flower and of course the delightful Butterfly punch.

This is a fun and easy card to make

I've entered this into the Paper Sundaes Challenge - Things with Wings

Fancy a Punch?

I thought this had already been posted but following the problems with Blogger last week, it seems to have disappeared! 

Fancy a punch isn't quite as bad as it sounds!  It's the latest challenge on Papertake Weekly and so I decided to have a go and see what I could come up with.

I started off with Newsprint DSP and the Fancy Flower Punch.  Two flowers have been layered, inked around the edges with Poppy Parade and then a matching button from my stash added to finish it off.  The leaves are from the Two Step Bird Punch and the butterfly is yet another Stampin' Up! punch.

The scalloped edge is Poppy Parade cardstock and the Scallop Trim Punch and finally the sentiment is from the Four Frames Stamp Set and the matching Decorative Label Punch.

Fingers crossed this time!
