Follow your butterfly

This gift set was made for a manager of mine on her retirement. As my manager, Georgette was profoundly inspiring. I was surprised to learn later that she has a great love for butterflies so this gift was very well received..Nice!

Cherish Butterflies

For me, there is so much satisfaction in transforming a plain piece of white card stock. This card features the acetate butterflies I love making. While simple in overall design the focal point of this card salutes what can be achieved from combining watermarking, layered ink effects and heat embossing 

Loads of Love (Pull cart)

I have continued my exploration of creative possibilities from my box of card off cuts. I had stamped this cart on kraft card some time ago and upon finding it again thought of this fun project.

Wonderful Bird

 Lately I have been playing with acetate alot! This card started with the a water coloured background. In adding the bird but wanted to try something different so he's been stamped in Stazon Black onto acetate. The branch he is perched on is an extract from the same stamped image on kraft which has been layered underneath. To make the birds breast white I applied Stazon White to the underside of the acetate image. Additional elements were added to make this 'ode to nature'.

Cherish Boxes

For me it's all about what I can do with paper, cardstock and craft supplies. I love making gift boxes as they add just that little more to the thought and presentation of gift giving.
