Happy unbirthday

 One of my sister's is one of those ungrateful people that doesn't want to accept that it is a privilege to have a birthday, some people don't have it but for those that have it, they should be grateful, accept it and celebrate it little or big doesn't matter. Anyway, when I saw the set Hero greetings cheeky birthday by HA I just had to get it for her cards as a joke, it does have other regular birthday messages.

I made a card for her with the Stamp On It 2020 double embossed outline kit gold butterflies with moondust crystal clear. The kit included peel-off stickers, the moondust cyrstal clear, cardstock fronts and bases with envelopes to make 8 cards and a brush that if it was to help with the glitter it didn't. I colored the peel-off stickers after applying the glitter with Copic markers. I stamped the background butterfly to a layer of Neenah cardstock with butterfly kisses set by Joy Clair with amalgam ink whisper stamped twice, then added my frame layer than came with the kit mounted on the base added the butterflies with glue dots and the greeting with VersaFine Clair nocturne ink and some enamel gold dots from stash, on the black layers used a scrap piece for the message

this message is from ornamental butterflies set by Poppy Stamps

and this message is from scripty saying set by Lawn Fawn

50th birthday

One of our friends is turning 50 today so wanted to do a special card for her. I didn't know her favorite color so used mine 😊 and also used butterflies. Saw a card by Lorraine A and loved it so this is my spin to her idea.

Using my stamping tool I stamped twice the same butterfly images from different set, butterfly kisses by Joy Clair, butterfly kisses by BoBunny, texture butterflies by KaiserCrafts, then did the splatter on the bottom layer I used ink blot set by CTMH, on the top layer I used SU's timeless textures set then I die cut scallop oval die from PPP, also on the top layer I die cut with the stitched rectangle die by The Stamps of Life, for my message I used 3 different sets with my tuxedo black dual marker I stamped the top part from say bday set by The Greeting Farm, the middle part is from anniversary set by TCP Studio and birthday is from magical birthday set by Simon Says Stamp.

The sequins were a gift and since I removed the package don't know the company, I glue some so when you stand the card not all sequins fall down

Shoebox Thursday

For today's shoebox project I made what some call fancy fold although to me is not as you really can't tell there is a special fold but guess that's not the point LOL I believe the first time I saw this was with Dawn O or maybe Julie D but a day or two ago I saw the card Jan B did which finally got me to do the card. I didn't follow her dimensions just because I didn't write them down I know I watched her video but somehow between watching and doing was two different things. She said that she would have to made a special envelope but when I thought about it I always use A6 envelopes so I would have been ok with her card size, anyway at the end I just did a normal A2 size card.

So this is the card

The label was done with rose garden thinlits by SU, the message is hand lettered hello by W Plus 9 stamped in grape jelly ink. The circles were done...scalloped circles by Spellbinders, stitched circles by The Stamps of Life. The big butterfly is from butterfly kisses by Joy Clair also with grape jelly ink and the background butterflies in both the label and circle are from butterfly kisses by BoBunny with lulu lavender ink
