My granddaughter turned three on Friday and we had a family get together on Saturday to celebrate! My mom and sister drove down on Wednesday and left yesterday. We had fun being together and we were busy every day! It is always so sad when family leaves. My daughter sent this to me and it sure does put the sadness into perspective.

I haven’t been in my craft room for days but today I have a card that I made several weeks ago for a friend. It’s hard to tell in the picture but I used Rich Razzleberry and Pacific Point for the layers and I sponged the flowers with both of these colors as well. The butterfly is also made from Rich Razzleberry using the Bold Butterfly Framelits. I used one of our new embossing folders in the annual catalog called Elegant Dots.

I used the Petite Petals punch and the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack. Sponge Daubers were used to add ink to the edges of the flowers and I finished them off with a pearl in each center (I used two different sizes).
My sentiment is from the host set Best Thoughts.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before, but in addition to being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, I also sell South Hill Designs products. As I was making today’s card, I immediately thought how easy it would be to make a locket to match.

Inside the Silver Tone Crystal locket are our beautiful birthstone Swarovski crystals surrounding a silver crystal butterfly. The chain (my absolute favorite) is called the Multifaceted Link Chain. If you would like to see more SHD products, click here.
Onto my card! The inspiration for this card comes from Donna Mikasa for Hero Arts. I made a Stampin’ Up! version.

I embossed a small section of Whisper White cardstock with the new Elegant Dots embossing folder. After cutting out three butterflies with the Bold Butterfly Framelits, I sponged the upper section of each with a sponge dauber and my stamp pads in Daffodil Delight, Wild Wasabi and Melon Mambo. I popped each one up with a piece of Stampin’ Dimensional (the part of the dimensionals that you might throw away, around the perimeter). My sentiment comes from the host set, Best Thoughts.
