Hello friends
As promised I went rummaging in my scrap box to find out the details of the paper used on this card....
well, I found a piece but annoyingly I had cut off the manufacturer details - doh!
I am not certain but I suspect it could be Prima papers - I'm going to keep trying to locate it
on the internet and will definitely let you know.
I've been busy with projects and making a start on the TV samples and demos.
I will share some sneak peeks soon.
In the meantime, my rummaging expanded to some other boxes and I discovered
this project....
I thought the red and white was quite appropriate as we are hurtling towards Valentine's Day.
This could easily be adapted with a heart instead of the butterfly.
The embossing is created with M-Bossabilities Floral Folder and I've lightly inked the edges.
A combination of Classic Ovals LG and Floral Ovals and the stunning butterfly is
Wings of Hope - stencilling through the die at its best!
I'm considering making something a little similar to this for TV on Saturday,
I do like to feature something edible!
Also - you may have noticed on my blog sidebar is my 'Craft Blogs' ranking -
I've been at 13 for so long and yesterday it jumped up to 12 - that was so nice...
like many others I get a little wobbly over the number '13'!
Take care friends - the snow is trying to make a comeback here!

Hi Christine - what a gorgeous card with the butterfly - I also like the spellbinders butterfly expandable as the butterfly on that is great for cutting to decoupage.. Your orphan paper is really lovely for the vintage card - hope you find out where it is from.
Morning Christine,
What a lovely card or should i say tag???

Hi Christine.
What a lovely day to come back from visiting my son in the UK to find such a pretty butterfly and to discover you must be on the tele on Saturday.
I had a very eventful journey to Liverpool. There was a freak snowstorm and we had to be diverted to Luton to get a coach to Liverpool. However when we landed the motorways were closed so we were put up in The Hampshire Hilton which was very nice. We got on a coach at lunchtime and headed up the motorway. My journey took me 24 hours. Anyway it was all worth it. I had a lovely time with my son and friends.

Hi Christine
This card/tag is just gorgeous and the stencilling on the butterfly certainly brings it to life! I love how you've combined the differ oval dies.
Looking forward to seeing some sneak peaks this week, and have already set the box to record your shows.
A little bit of snow here still this morning, so should be gone by the end of the day - well, fingers crossed eh!
Congratulations on moving up the blogging ladder, you must be pleased that it means more people are discovering and viewing your blog.
Have a great day.

I love both cards Christine (the tag could be made into a card). And whatever the paper is on the first card, it works very well, but could be adapted with other, similar papers.
Morning Christine, gorgeous project today, love the red and white. Emma
