So, today's card is inspired by the card I received from Mandi for my birthday :-)  I stripped the design right down to just the card, no added card, or dsp on this one:

(well, apart from the Spice Cake used for the butterflies).  I did feel the urge to put some ribbon on it though, I love the colour of this ribbon, it is fresh and rather gorgeous :-) 


While I was making the card, I lost my seat on the sofa to the pudders though and haven't the heart to move them, so have been relegated to the floor to type this up on the laptop :-D

Hope you are all having a fab day, wherever you are and whatever you're doing and I will speak to you again soon.

Coffee and Cake, one of my favourite combinations

Morning!  Another busy day ahead, going to a friend's for coffee and cake this afternoon and then later on we're off to the football stadium to find out about education choices for the 14-18 year olds.  George is nowhere near that age yet, but its always good to know in advance what options are open to home educated children in our area.  I have also had time to play around with making smaller cards, and am quite enjoying it.  


So today's card is smaller, 4" by 4":

I used my new Big Shot die, Beautiful Wings, for the gorgeous butterflies. The sentiment is from the S-A-B stamp set, Outlined Occasions, and I used paper from the dsp, First Edition Speciality.  I also inked the edges of the dsp with Island Indigo to match the colour of the butterflies.


That's nearly it from me today, please feel free to message me if you are interested in joining me as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and would like more information.  During Sale-A-Bration is a great time to join as new demonstrators are eligible for an extra stamp set of their choice, for free, along with the great value starter kit for £119.
