Have you noticed all the beautiful butterflies......

This summer is flying by way too fast.  Even my youngest, who is now a Senior, said the same thing today.  We haven't done anything special this summer, so I think secretly he's glad it's flying by and is ready to start his senior year.   Another thing that has been flying by are beautiful butterflies.  When the boys were younger, they would catch butterflies in these really cute cages.  Of course, after admired, they had (were suppose) to let them go.

This week's project for The Cutting Cafe' we got to choose from Butterfly themed sets.  I chose this Butterfly shaped card/template/cutting file.

 

To see other Butterfly sets, go HERE.

 

Hope you enjoy my butterfly creation.

 

 

I opened the butterfly cutting file into Silhouette designer studio.  I did some offsets to get the working around the butterfly.  I also cut an extra butterfly for dimension.  Added ribbon for the body and some jewels for some bling.  I really wanted to sew it with my sewing machine, but I'm alittle nervous.

 

Close up of the details

 

 

 

Hope you enjoy my card.  I really enjoyed doing it.  Go by The Cutting Café's blog tomorrow and look at the other Design team's projects, you won't be disappointed.  These ladies are amazing.  Also don't forget to comment, because every week Mrs. Regina gives a way sets (a lot of times it's three)

Spring is in the air...........

It has been a beautiful last couple of days....Finally!!!  The weather here is so unpredictable.  On Thursday is suppose to get back down in the low 30's.  I've got everything planted so I hope it doesn't freeze or I will loose it all.  With spring comes gardens, plants and lots of flowers (and weeds....hopefully not too many~lol)

This week at The Cutting Cafe we were able to choose anything we wanted to work with!  I bet you can't guess what I chose! ....Why, yes, the flower!!!

FLOWER SHAPED CARD TEMPLATE - CUTTING FILE... This flower shaped card is approx. 5.5 by 5.5 inches....It comes with an extra top piece for layer and a circle word that will punch out with a 2 inch circle punch...circle word reads: if friends were like flowers, i'd pick you.

I still can't pick the one I like the most. 

 

I used my silhouette cameo to cut the file.
