Grunge Butterflies card

This card was a quick make using some papers I found in my craft bag.

Im sorry I have no idea what the paper is, it was a stack I found of grunge style papers.
The butterfly is a Marianne D Creatable butterfly, and the small doily circle is from Nellie Snellen.
The Happy Birthday topper I made myself and printed out.

A couple of Doilies

These Doilies were easy and quick to make and cut using Nellie Snellen Dies.
Both measure approximately 3"



I didnt really have any ideas when I started. So I started by picking a small piece of glittered paper for one and worked off that, adding bits from my craft cupboard as I went along.
 
The flower originally started off yellow, but them I added watercolour pens to the edges and blended the ink with my water pen. The little centre flower is a chipboard flower that I coated with rock candy crackel paint then rubbed faded jeans distress re-inker into the top.


The second doily was distressed using Tattered Rose distress ink and a folded Dahlia flower was added.
The flower was made by folding 8 1" circles, then adhering them to the centre of another circle to hold them in place. I glittered the edge of the finished flower with stickles to give some sparkle.

60th Birthday Card

This Napkin Fold card I made for my Mum's 60th Birthday.





I die cut the circle using Nellie Snellen circle dies and distressed it with Walnut Stain distress ink.
The flourish and word on the front were cut using my Making Memeories Slice. The floursish is cut from the Remember This design card, and the MUM was cut using the shadow feature at 1" from the Vintage Findings design card.

The greeting inside the card was cut using my Making Memories slice and the Words and Expressions Holidays designs card and the border is a Martha Stewart Bubbles around the page set.


The pink flower cardstock, (unfortunately I do not know the brand), was bought from Carols Crafts, and sprayed with Crafters Companion irridescent spray.
The green and pink paper came from a scrapbooking stack the I picked up in sale from TKMaxx. Again, I do not know the brand, the stack had lost its cover.
