As usual I am chasing my tail this week trying to get everything done but had half a day off today and took time out and went and see my sis.... I love my sister, it makes you realise how much your family means to you when you don't see them that much!!
Anyway enough of the sloppy stuff!
I thought that I would bring you some samples that I made using the fabulous Botanica Collection
It is a really beautiful collection that is sooo easy to use as are most of the Craftwork Cards kits but the foling on this one makes it extra special and I also love butterflies and there are loads in this kit that you can cut away.......
Anyway let me stop waffling and show you what I made.....
Now apologies for some of the photos as they were taken late at night........
The first card is a simple card. I made it on a 119mm square mini card and I used the beautiful butterfly paper and cut away some of the butterflies and then matted it on to purple card.......
A closer look at those cut away 3D mini butterflies........
I love to paint with stickles and I used siver stickles on this card to embellish it......
For the next card I changed the colour of the backing card and it is amazing how different it can look......
I cut the butterfly out of one of the Botanica toppers and again embellished with silver stickles........
For my last sample today I made an open picture frame...... some of the papers in this collection are so lovely that you don't need to do too much to them to create a lovely scene.....
( Apologies for this picture, it is a little out of focus but the best one I had )
A clearer, closer look.......
I cut away the flowers from another sheet to de-coupage on top.....
A little closer look at the detail on the edges.....
Well that is about all from me for now, I hope you like the samples with the Botanica Collection and I will be back next week....
