Birthday Butterfly

I used THIS SKETCH for this card.

I love the elegant butterflies from the Papertrey set: Butterfly Kisses.
They are so beautiful!

The gorgeous paper is Flutterby-Long Wing by Kaisercraft.
I embellished with red and white pearls.



See my new blog banner up there???
My sweet DH walked me thru making it last night.
I love it!

Friends & Chocolate

It's the 6th of the month ~ that means the Limelight Papercrafts Chicks have a project to share!

This month our theme was ~ A Valentine's Day Gift you can give to a Friend.

Friends & Chocolate go together pretty good to me!!!



I stamped Chocolate Friends by Stampendous in Adirondak Espresso.
The papers are from the Basic Grey Bittersweet 6x6 pad.

I embellished with Petunia Tulle Ribbon and Soft Pink Rhinestones.



I used Mod Podge to adhere the heart paper from the Basic Grey Bittersweet 6x6 pad to the tin top. And used 3/8" Brown Satin Ribbon along the edge of the lid.



To embellish the top I tied on some Petunia Tulle Ribbon and added Soft Pink Rhinestones to two of the corners.
