Bella's Friends 24-7

I am probably on of the few SU demonstrators who waited until just now got the Friends 24-7 set. I loved it from the start, but didn't think I needed another set with a bird in it. Alas, I was wrong. This is a very nice set and easy to use! For this card I used the Bella Birds dp (so pretty), basic gray cardstock for the base and mat, and pink pirouette cardstock that is embossed with a dotted swiss embossing folder from Cuttlebug. I tied it with my last piece of basic gray taffeta ribbon. The image is colored with pretty in pink and old olive markers, shadowed with mellow moss.

Chocolate Beauty

I am just loving the new designer paper from the Spring/Summer Catalog!! It makes card making so easy! And these butterflies...you'll be seeing alot of these I'm afraid. They are just too darn cute and fun to make. This one uses the Bella Birds paper again. The flower is one of the new crocheted ones with one of the new chocolate chip brads. Also I used a piece of the dotted choc. chip ribbon from the Vallet Ribbon Originals. The words are from the hostess set Goody Goody Gumdrops. Hope you like it.
