Something Saturday - Paper Butterfly Accents

 Hi there Creators

Today we're checking out the beautiful Paper Butterfly Accents, not an expensive item, but soooo pretty!

Have to admit that mine had done a runner, and I was left with the outside bit that you pop the butterflies out from, which was what I had planned to do something with, but nevertheless kind of irritating that I couldn't find the rest of the pack, which of course turned up after I'd done the video, so in fact I could use some of the butterflies in these cards.  So annoying when you search and search, then they turn up where you've already checked 1/2  a dozen times!

However I eventually decided I'd just do the video anyway, as they say in Happy Gilmore, "just play it as it lies"🤣

And here's the first card I created, this one uses the bit you'd usually throw away, as a mask, and I love how it turned out!  I've used daubers to add the colour, as I thought brushes might not work so well, I've also used the Filled with Happiness Stamp set (I did use this recently in one of my Something Saturdays)

Then I thought I should actually use some of the butterflies seeing as I found them🤣 This card I used this photopolymer stamp from Beach Day, and the great thing with long photopolymer stamps is that you can curve them onto the block 😍

And this is how it ended up, used some of the In colour pearls in the corners (initially I just did dots but decided these looked way better!)

then lastly I created this background (if you want to know how, watch next weeks video😉) I left the butterflies white and added a few more of those In colour pearls, and the saying from Heartfelt Hexagon.

If you missed the video here it is....

I hope this inspires you to create

March Class Cards

 Hi There Creators

Well we're over 1/2 way through February already!, and I feel like I have been ultra organised in getting these cards sorted now🤣

Have you remembered to order enough during Jan & Feb to get any of the free Sale-a-Bration Items?  You get to pick something for free with every $90 of goodies you order, but it only goes till the end of Feb, so check the link out if you want to see the freebees.

Anyway onto the March classes, We make 4 cards for $24, Dates are: 

Laanecoorie: Tues 5th I we're going to give 1.30pm a go, instead of the 2.30pm we did last month (it'll settle down once I've tried it out, and afternoon did work well), then Thursday 7th at 7pm

And in Maryborough Saturday 9th at 10.30am

Here are cards:

First up using Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper and the Beautiful Balloons stamp set (each card should be different depending on the papers you choose😊

Then continuing on with Designer Papers I have this Perennial Lavender Card (so pretty) coupled with the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch and Heartfelt stamp set

then on to a watercolour technique that will be coming up as a Something Saturday (ironically on the 9th!) and incorporating the Cheerful Daisies Bundle

and last but not least I scored this stamp set as a Sale-a-Bration item, which is great cos I've been looking at it for ages!  It's the Botanical Layers set paired up with one of my favourite punches (double oval punch)

And that's it!  

If you plan to come to any of the classes (especially the Laanecoorie ones) please make sure you book your place as number in my class room are definitely limited, we can fit way more into the Maryborough class 😍

Hope to see you, and if not, I hope these inspire you to create

God Bless love
