Cuttlebug challenge #43

Here is my cuttlebug challenge card for this week. I hope hope you like it. This was a sketch challenge. For this card I only used three carts. Storybook, Plantin Schoolbook and Beyond Birthdays. The flower was cut at 2 1/2" and I used gold stickles on the ends. The butterflies were also from SB and I cut them at 1"and cut each of them twice and layered them. I also used gold stickles in the centers of the butterflies. The frame is from SB and is cut at 3". The my friend is from BB and is cut at 3". The scallop is from Plantin Schoolbook and is cut at 1/2". I used my cuttlebug swiss dots folder for the frame and then I used the smaller flowers from one of the cuttlebug accessory sets. I also used a piece of gold ribbon down the center. thank you for looking and thank you for leaving a comment.

Cuttlebug challenge #42

The cuttlebug challenge this week was to locate 3 blinkies and email their locations to Nilda and then to post a card using the Mr Linky box. The card was to use our favorite cuttlebug folder. I would have to say that my favorite cuttlebug folder would be ther one that I am using at that time. This particular card uses the divine swirls folder and the swiss dots folder. I guess I would have to say these two are really my favs since I use them the most. I used divine swirls with the scalloped circles cut from MM at 3",2 3/4 " , 2 1/2", and 2 1/4". I also used the divine swirls for the burgundy background paper and also for my corner pieces which are jasmine cut at 5". I used the swiss dots folder for the present which was cut from celebrations at 2 1/2". This was the first time that I had cut anything from the Celebrations cart. The flowers in the center of the jasmine corners are a Martha Stewart punch and then I added a gold glitter stickle to the center of the flowers. I love the paper I used. I used the gold metallic paper and then the background paper is from the Once upon a time stack. That stack has so many pretty papers. This will be a birthday card for my SIL, I took my sharpi pen and wrote her name on the gift box tag. I am pleased with how it turned out and I hope she will like it too. Thank you so much for looking and thank you for commenting.
