My other passion

[taxed4ever]

Recently I have taken up DIY card making and although I got away from working with paper/cardstock etc quite a few years ago (I hated the mess!) I have been enjoying making my own handmade cards! I wanted to show you all just how beautiful Vicki Robinson's Butterfly templates turn out! I print out these butterflies and fussy cut them, glue them together so that you can see the pattern on both sides and then glue a third one to the top just in the centre so I can fold up the wings and make it look 3D. I love these Butterflies and I know you will too. Whether you do digital or paper they are stunning! Here is a example of a card that I recently made along with some of the butterflies that I made into stickers.

I am like that with doing extractions. I can sit and erase pixels for hours.

 

[VickiStegall]

me too!

Oh yes extractions are something I also love to do! It's almost like meditation!
