My First Bi-Fold Card

I have tried to do something that was unknown to me.

I made my first Bi-Fold card

after an inspiration from Mrs. A's Butterfly challenge.

It was so fun to make it.

But I did not find the right colours,

neither among my patterned card stocks

nor in my papers.

But I made a Bi-Fold card, I have a butterfly and I added a bow.

I used:

Two sided patterned card stock: Craft Sensations,

Pink card stock,

Cream paper.

(I hoped I could say it was banana, but I don't think I might.)

WeR Memory Keepers Nesting Card die,

Lifestyle Doily Circle die,

Studio Light Butterfly die.

Stamp: Unbranded.

Pink ribbon for the bow,
Rhine stone, purple pen for the faux stitches.

Four Tags In A Mini Box

I made a little gift for a friend of mine.

At first I only thought of giving her some tags,

but then I thought I could make a little box

for these mini cards.

My rather old fingers cannot make fine works,

so I struggled a bit with the box and the bows.

But I think I can bring my friend this little gift

when I see her tomorrow afternoon.

For the tags I used:

White card stock, 2 different whites.

Embossing folder: Swiss Dots, Cuttlebug.

Image: "Arum Lilies", from Beccy's "Lovely Lilies" set.

Light pink ribbon.

For the box I used:

Pink card stock,

Patterned paper: Craft Sensations.

Spellbinders Scalloped Circle (on the back side)
and Spellbinders heart die.
Stamp: Heyda.

Light pink ribbon.

Rhine stone.

I glued the little heart so that it can hold the upper part of the box.

Tools: Cuttlebug, MS scoreboard, EK Success corner punch.
