Happy Birthday Butterflies...Challenge...and My New Goodies

  I love...love...love my new goodies that arrived on Friday...I spent yesterday putting them together so that I can start my projects/cards with them...I have a set of colours that I ordered and am waiting for those to arrive this week...I can't wait to see what they look like for real and combine them with one of these sets...Yaahooooooooo!!!!!


  I was thinking tags for this set...but as crafters we know that we never know what we will do till the inspiration lightening strikes us...and the fact that the set has coordinating punches...well can I just say FABULOUS!!!...lol.

 
  Another set with a coordinating punch is sure to be a new love of mine...excited to see what I'm going to be creating with this fabulous set.


Now to my cards that I made this morning...I've been up since 2am...and was chatting with my 3am Buddy Club Members...we are always up by 3am for some unknown reason...lol.

I love how the butterflies look on the background of the Vintage Violet card stock...yes! this colour has long ago retired but I have lots of it and want to use up these fav stashes of mine...too many of the goodies from the brand new Catty has caught my eye...and again...I will certainly have colour favs...but don't we all.


One of my favs is this Honey Comb folder...the hexagon shape had me at hellooooo....LOL!


 Here is the recipe:

Stamp set: itty bitty banners.
*****
Card stock: vintage violet...very vanilla...assorted scraps...and cream printer paper.
*****
Ink: gumball green.
*****
Punches: embosslits beautiful wings...framelits bitty banner...and honeycomb folder.
*****
Additional supplies: big shot...snail...s/u mini glue dots...fiskar...and simply scored plate.


  I entered this card onto Make it Monday #144 over at

Thanks everyone for stopping by this morning and sharing my cards...and of course my fabulous new collection to my stash...lol...I hope you all had a great weekend and enjoyed the wonderful weather...because today promises to be different...it was chilly when I walked the dogs early this morning and it sure looks like rain...dark and cloudy here...but I do hope that you all have a fabulous morning and a stampin' good time...see ya' tomorrow.
