I’m not a truly pink/lilac person and I really struggled with this one, but it wouldn’t be a challenge then, would it if we were in our comfort zone. I hadn’t even broken the seal on the Orchid Opulence packet and I’ve had it since I signed up to be a Demonstrator last July! Gosh, […]

Cuttlebug butterfly
I’m pleased with using this Really Rust card. I just cut out an aperture, stamped and cut out another in the same shape and adhered to card base then used the cuttlebug butterfly dies to cut out more butterfly images, the base one on plain cardstock, and the top one cut from DSP. Instant card, […]
