A long overdue project....

I got this shadow box from Twiddlybitz  at last years scrapbooking and papercraft expo. So seeing as the next one is only 2 months away I thought I'd better do something with it or how can I justify spending money on more???

This is a close up of the inside. Not sure if I actually like it! But at least I finished it!

Don't look Mum!

I made this Mum card and liked it so much that special Mums will get it for mother's day! I cased the design from a British card making magazine which came with these gorgeous twenty's stamps. It is an easel card so when you pop it up you see the word Mum.

And I made this birthday card too, which is OK, not a favorite! It took me ages though! I used heat embossing on the Happy Birthday with white emboss powder, and used some perfect pearl powder for the flowers.
Now I have to study, which I have been putting off in pursuit of my favorite hobby!! I so would love to make more cards today, maybe tomorrow....

Butterflies are pretty....pretty!

 So there might be a bit of a theme in some of these cards! I have been playing with my 'Pappillion Potpourri' butterfly stamps from Stampin Up. The best part is using the matching punches so I never have to cut! Occasional cutting is OK but too much means less time for making! But right now I am having difficulty not putting a butterfly on a creation!
I have also decorated three more boxes, with my favorite being the bird and butterflies. The picture doesn't capture how gorgeous it is!!

 

 And I'm having rouble with placing these pics so forgive the crazy layout!
