Memory Box Floating Butterflies Background card

This card took no time at all to make. It was SO simple!

I started with an A6 white card blank and cut background paper slightly smaller and corners rounded. The butterflies were cut out from Papermill Pink card using the Memory Box Floating Butteflies Background die and then cut to slightly smaller than the background paper. Corners were rounded too and it was adhered using double sided adhesive.
The butterflies and edge of the card were 'faux stitched' using  a white gel pen and gems added for the bodies.
I stamped the greeting, which came from a free stamp set from a craft magazine (I dont know which one, I just have a pile of free stuff from magazines in a tub) and a teeny tiny gem was added for the dot of the 'i'.

This card is being entered into the June Memory Box monthly challenge, over on Outside The Box, which happens to be butterflies!

Simple Rolled Flower Card

This card doesnt have a sentiment yet, I knew exactly how I wanted the card to turn out, but also wanted to leave it "sentiment free" so I can stamp one on when the time comes to give it to a recipient.

The base is a A6 pink hammer effect card and some rose printed paper added to the bottom inch. The paper came from a stack I found in my papers box. I think it was a free one from a magazine.
The same paper was used to make the flower which was created using the Spellbinders bitty blossom die and Marianne D leaves dies for the foliage, along with an x-cut punch for the small leaf. A big pink pearl was added to the centre.
I embossed two lines across the card on my Hougie board and added a Memory box Tessatina die cut between the embossed lines.
