Yesterday's card was made with some pretty DP from GaleriaPapieru called Field Lilies
I diecut the edge and adhered it on the left. My triple layered butterflies were cut on my Cameo and I sponged the edges before attaching them. I added sparkly gems for the bodies and a Happy Birthday peeloff

Today's card features a gorgeous vintage car stamp (unknown)
I stamped it onto a wonky stitched oblong and made my background with a woodgrain embossing folder, which I swiped with a brown ink to show up the grain a little better.The piece of orange ribbon was a gift with a stamp I ordered from Australia and it gives a lift to the colours. The base card is brown too, and I see I have managed to cut the bottom off in the scan. I am still getting used to my new printer!!

I have been trying to make one card per day and this is yesterdays, but had to wait for some sunshine this morning to get a photo. I was trying to show the WOS sparkle on the butterfly and the fine glitter showing through on the background, but it did not happen. I wish I knew the secret of capturing sparkle!
The background was a piece of watercolour card that already had a glimmery wash on it. I added turquoise Brusho and spritzed with water. After it was dry I added in some random circles with a blue Promarker, then diecut out the part circle. Birthday was stamped with Brilliance Graphite Black and I die cut the 'happy' twice from some leftover scraps The butterfly was recycled from another project, and I added WOS to the wings

Simon Says Monday - dry embossing
We are in the middle of a level 4 lockdown again so I am enjoying the time making cards
For this one, I have used a simple fun fold from Natasha Foote Here is the link to her instructions on her You Tube channel
I used some dp from a 6x6 pad "Out of Print' by Basic Grey. I have had this pad a number of years, and don't think it is available now. I cut it to the same size as my card front, trimmed off a quarter and attached it to the inside right, and the rest is attached to the left
I diecut the shape, edged it in orange, stamped the sentiment using my misti, and attached it to the folded back piece. The flower leaf and button were added for further interest

I have followed the sketch from BYSHC to make my mini slimline card.
I have used DP from a 6x6 pad by MME and printed a digi that I had in my files. Sorry I do not know who the designer is. It is cut with a stitched circle die, and I also made a tag for the sentiment, which is a peeloff coloured red

A cute Penny Black stamp coloured with various markers, diecut with a wonky stitched die and layered on a strip of orange, and then on to the base card which is kraft
I have not used traditional colours for this one, but feel they suit the cute little reindeer's head, which is made from felt
