Hi bloggies!
At the craft retreat I went to in February I saw some wonderful projects that were made using some new SU! goodies! I had been trying so hard to resist … but came home and just HAD TO order some. They arrived a little while ago … but I have only just had a little time to play with them. This is my first card using new “Papillion Potpourri” stamp set … and the 2 new butterfly punches! So quick & easy to put a delicious card together!
I added some “Dazzling Details” to the butterflies … a quick alternative to embossing with bling … but it does tend to make the ink bleed a little. Still a nice effect, though!
It is school holidays for the next two weeks. I love the ‘non-routine’ of the holidays. Skye only has 1 week off uni (next week) … so I hope to do a few things with her and Sandy. I also have Gav’s brother-in-law & a mission colleague coming to stay with us for 8 days on Monday … so do have to do some preparations for that. So … time for blogging will be a little tricky! I will be back asap, though! My back is still niggling … so sometimes I just don’t feel like sitting in front of the computer at the end of a busy day! Hope you stick with me, though! 😉 Hope you have a nice day!

Love your “blinged” butterflies – gorgeous, and the colour combo is sweet too!! Also love your row of flowers 🌸
Hope you find time to do all your jobs over the next few weeks!
Someone once said “They said “I wish there was another day in the week”, but I say “I wish there was another day in the weekend!”. ” Too true!😉 I guess if we just had weekends, we wouldn’t appreciate them!

I have been so bad with my blog checking lately. Life has been so busy. But I just caught up on your blog and really, really, like what you have been doing. Today is such a pretty card. Love the stamp set and love that border punch. I also really like the way you did the ribbon on your April 10th entry. I have to try that. Take care, and many hugs to you.
