FSS Monarch Butterfly SVG

Feeling a little pink today? I am tickled pink on how awesome this card came out. I know...tooting my own horn is not very nice but I do love how this card turned out. Let's start with that awesome butterfly. This butterfly is an svg file from FSS called Monarch Butterfly SVG. I used the double sided adhesive I had talked about in this post from All That Jazz Supplies to cut out both layers of the butterfly and applied pink glitter to the top layer and clear glitter to the bottom layer. Of course, I did all my cutting with my new best friend my Black Cat Lynx. What a beautiful butterfly. The layer with the white swirly images was created by moi...stamped the swirls randomly with white ink onto vellum. Layered underneath the vellum with various other card stock and of course some more glitter. The sentiment is from SU. The corners of the card were cut with an SU corner punch and adorned with some flatback pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty. Oh and if you look close you will see those same pearls on the body of the butterfly. I love working with vellum and should do more of it. Well, let me know your thoughts! Please be so kind to leave some love...it is so greatly appreciated. Hope your day was beautiful and your night is the same! Thanks for stopping by!

HUGS!

FSS Emma the Mermaid

Happy Monday...a little late! I have been working so hard to create a birthday card for my little grandaughter who will be 3 at the end of this month. Finally after deciding to try the center step card design I then chose to use the FSS Emma the Mermaid Colored set to create my card...This was a blast! The set comes with all the png files you need to create a scene...as well as an underwater scene background and the underwater paper! And is that mermaid to die for??? LOL my husband says the mermaid looks just like our sweet girl! You have to go check out this set...it is superb and has so many possibilities! I used one of my new nestability dies...Ribbon Banners...to cut out the computer generated sentiment. Of course I had to add some stickles for some bling! Here is a look at the inside....the sentiment was created with JustRite alphabet sets. And that fish with the balloons...was just perfect for birthday cards!
I used one of my Martha Stewart punches for the mat here...thought it looked like bubbles! I am pleased with this style of card and think I will make some more...there are so many possibilities. Well, I am going to get off this computer for the night...I hope you all had a wonderful day today and got lots of play time in! I will be by to see what you have been up to...have some coffee ready! LOL...thanks so much for taking the time to leave me some love...it is truly appreciated.

HUGS!
