Morning all, Kirsten here with two very quick cards to show you.
 
This one has the large die cut butterfly coloured with alcohol inks & a little
Diamond Sparkle Medium...

I used a piece of Anna Marie Designs Trellis card over a piece of blue core'dinations card & stamped the word with the Hobby Art Typed Alphabet clear stamp set..........
 
 
017
 
 
Here I used the 'waste' from the piece of Trellis card & glued it to a piece of the Anna Marie Designs Lavender Lace dottie card (I love these dottie A4 cards, the colours are all so gorgeous).
 
I die cut the smaller butterfly twice, once from pearlescent card & once from another piece of the dottie card, then layered them together on a small paper doily...............

 NB The butterfly dies sold out at the August class, but they can be ordered from Lisa. Phone her on 01622 675078, or send her an email; lisabaker1@btinternet.com

  2. Very pretty cards. The trellis card is lovely to use as the 'waste' is a great size to use as an embellishment. I especially love the top card. x

  7. Sorry this may be a repeat but I think Blogger ate another of my comments here, grr!
    Both of these are stunning! I love the trellis card with that Tiffany blue behind it - so very classy and elegant and I love the inked up butterfly and use of the 'waste' on the second card. TY very much for sharing Karen xx
