(using up some of the bits I used to make the card before that) And....playing with some pots of Perfect Pearls I picked up at the Crafty Charity shop at the weekend. So this is what's on my bench. That's all from me! The sun's up! I'd better get to bed! Happy WOYWW!? Catch you all later!

An Anniversary Butterfly Pop out 'Box' Card...
Happy Belated Anniversary to sis in law and Bro-in law. I made this Butterfly box card, using mostly, different shades of purple card.
I followed the Tutorial from Sam Calcott on YouTube, but it went a little bit wrong. Some of the die-cuts wouldn't cut, even after going through my new BigShot three or four times. In the end I snipped them with my scissors and they didn't turn out too bad. Debs took these pictures as I'd forgotten to. The front of the card, the very top picture, the butterfly is in silver miri and the rest are in Crafter's Companion Centural Pearl, Snow White, Hint of Gold. 310gsm.
The box card should close flat, so that all the butterflies fold in together, but I couldn't get the butterfly bodys to fold in the middle, so I ended up adding another butterfly to make the circle complete and just hand delivered it! The butterfly's body part was actually a pretty purple multi-mirri patterned perfume box, (Versage woman Eau de Perfum Natural spray- not mine! I found it in someones recycle bin one Christmas! years back-too nice to throw away) so it was probably a little too thick to fold over. The last butterfly provides a space to write your sentiment on the back of its wing.I've just finished or nearly finished another butterfly card using the same die-set, which makes a gatefold card. Butterfly Trails, Card Making Magic by Christina Griffiths. I'll show you that later. Click on Sam's link above to show you how the card should've looked like! Or Here to see it on her blog. That's it for now. Thank you for stopping by!

It's Wednesday, So It's WOYWW!? #684
Good Morning Crafters and WOYWW-ers ! And thank you to our Lovely host over at Stamping Ground for bringing us to this point in time! Have you ever actually tried that? Stamping ground? Probably with your feet but I'm guessing not with a rubber stamp...could start a new trend... but I think not! Mind you, seagulls do it, pitter-patter-pitter-patter, but the end product there is a nice big fat juicey worm. Not a stamped image of... whatever.
Soooo! Here's my worktop at this moment. I've being making birthday and anniversay cards...will show later. I do have a lot of scissors out...that's because the butterfly die wasn't cutting through the butterfly's head, so I had to snip it, carefully! and everytime I put my scissors down I can't find them, so I get another pair out. That roll of gold glittered paper is sticky, really nice and loads of it. The tower of stars and the door embossing folder was from that Crafty Charity shop near me...50p each. The little faver box on the far left I found at Lady Pam's. Still with the 2008 penny in it, the sweeties had gone of course. Right, that's it! Freeeebie is HERE (I forgot to link it before) Hubby wants to go somewhere, so...off we go! (and tomorrow we have dogs) See you all over on WOYWW!? Thank you for stopping by!

It's that Time Again! What's On Your WorkTop Wednesday!? #683
My old Big Shot died...the smallest cogg broke all its teeth off. It was very old so it has lasted a very long time, shame Sizzix wouldn't sell me another cogg, hubby rung them up...'only if it's under warrenty or under three years old...' -mine is years and years old! If it was human inwould be in a wheelchair or at lest carry a stick. Anyway...we took Mr Jinx to the vet yesterday (blood tests) and on the way back hubby turned off at Hobby Craft and said, thanks to 'Lady Pam' (bless her) 'let's go buy a new one.' Love Him! (and Pam of course) YAY!
And here's the New Big shot! Love it. Kicking myself a little bit though, as only about a week ago that Crafty Charity Shop had one still in its box for half the price but that of course got snapped up! That's it from me. Have a really crafty week! See you over on WOYWW later. I will be late as we are off looking after dogs, again. (I will retire one day!) Thank you for stopping by!
