BBTB CONTEST BUTTERFLY CARD AND GIFT BOX




Hi all
I have been working on a card and matching gift box box for Regina's contest over at BBTB. Regina wanted us to create a project which has ribbon and a cut from any Cricut cart.
So here is mine!
My card is 6"x6" and the papers are Dovecraft hint of pink, the stripey paper is from Pattypicklicious CD and polka dot paper for the Butterfly is a download from Funky Fairys and pink dcwv card. The butterfly is cut from Indie Art cartridge at 2 1/4" and also shadow. I used Fiskars border punch Apron Lace down the edge of the card. Double satin 1" ribbon in Azalea, my bow tying is not fab so I tried a different look lol! All the bling is Prima 'say it in crystal' which was actually clear and I coloured them with a pink permanent marker. In real life the ribbon matches perfectly!
The little matching box is hand cut and so easy to make. Again I used hint of pink and duplicated the butterfly more bling and ribbon.
Now my biggest problem is this Mr Linky to link to BBTB wish me luck I've not used it before and am not that computer clever!
Thanks Regina I really enjoyed doing this project!
Thanks for looking!

GIRLY SKULL CARD FOR A 16TH BIRTHDAY



Good morning and happy Friday to everyone
I personally wouldn't put girly and skull in the same category but it seems that this style appeals to teenagers lol!
My neighbour's daughter Olivia is turning 16 tomorrow so I made her this card!
The card base is from DCWV Rockstar stack. I used Indie Art cricut cart for the skull cut at 2 1/2" in pink mirricard and on blackout in black then pop dotted. The 16 was cut with Plantin School cart at 3" in black and shadow in pink mirri also pop dotted. Olivia was made using Cricut Design Studio and Wildcard cart. An organza bow was added to the skull with a gem heart and Prima 'say it in crystals' flourishes added in the corners.
Not really my style but it is Olivia's! Hope she likes it!
Thanks for looking and hope everyone has a great weekend
