Thinking of you

Hey everyone!

Jenn here, back again with my second week as guest designer.  Did you all see the early release of the new fabulous dies?  Love them!  Hope everyone has fun shopping, and even more fun crafting with your new dies!

For my card this week, I needed something quick to send to a very special lady who I wanted to let know she is in my thoughts.  Since she is very elderly, I wanted something a bit on the elegant side, but also perhaps a bit on the vintage side.  Here is what I came up with:




I love my Cheery Lynn butterflies just as much as I love the flowers.  They are so delicate, and still can be shaped into a dimensional embellishment just as you would a flower.  It is also so much fun to play around with bits and pieces of different dies to create different looks.  The top border above the ribbon is a side I cut off from the Dutch Doily Rectangle Frame.  I've also used half of a Polynesian Sails Oval on the bottom half of the card.  Added a few other embellishments, and viola!  Done in under half an hour.

Dies used:

Wishing everyone a fantastic weekend!

  3. Very Pretty Jenn. Love your idea of using pieces of two pretty dies with the ribbon separation, will have to try that idea more. Everything I make needs a butterfly or flower lol.
