In Flight
I went to a Sizzix Demo on Friday by Pete Hughes what a talent he is.
I learnt lots of new ways to use my sizzix dies and my bigshot.
I was sorry when it ended could have watched him all over again.
He inspired me to make this card ........
I used my new Tim Holtz Butterflight decorative border on this card,
lge Marianne die and 2 Cheery Lynn butterflies,
I inked the edges of the butterfly slightly in black to match the Stampin-Up card
I cut out on the front of the card with a sizzix movers and shapers butterfly,
then put the cut-out inside the card. added small Tonic punched flowers.
Wasnt sure whether to bling it up or leave it ........

Metal Squares
I made this card for my Grandson's 18th and am entering it into Emma's October challenge
"Happy Birthday Brian"
I cut out 1 inch squares in silver mirror and grey card embossed the silver with my little dots folder used my stapler to make crosses on the grey.(this took forever you had to get it just right, but I am pleased with the result) I used large letters stamped, and embossed in clear embossing powder then I turned silver gems turned upside down , this way they looked more like metal. mounted all on black dot card with key and 18 , Happy Birthday .
I was very pleased with the end result and my grandson loved it.
