Hello friends,
Firstly thank you for your wonderful comments and support with the hop yesterday, truly appreciated. Today...oh I had such a lovely time making this..can you guess why??
Of course butterflies! I was wondering what the collective noun was for butterflies and apparently we have a choice - swarm, rabble, kaleidoscope - I think I prefer the last one!
I put this card together for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™ and Webster's Pages blog hop -
if you zip over there and leave a comment you are in with a chance to win lots of goodies - just click here.
So, my project - it's a card - a busy one, in fact I think it looks like a mini scrapbook layout!
The papers are Webster's Pages - Everyday Poetry - they feel so Victorian.
All held together by the wonderful Scrapbook Adhesive by 3L - the foam pads, the E-Z Runner® and Crafty Power Tape. I have used masses of adhesive over my crafting years and I have to say that this stuff really is the business. It is so great to use - anyone else struggle with removing the backing of foam pads?
No problem with these - just peel away easily.
And, when it says permanent it is permanent - none of this holding up your card and something falls off!
As for getting your hands on some..Tonic Studio is a UK distributor.
So a couple of close up shots too - I just couldn't help myself, kept taking more photos of the butterflies!
Hope you feel happy and fluttery today!
Back tomorrow...Friday Die-Day!!
Take care friends.
