awesome august

A few days ago was my August class. This month's class focused on punches! I love punches so to do a class on punches was just so much fun!! Here are the project we did...

Flutter Away Butterfly

A cute card using the stencilling technique. To finish it off we added a fe punched butterflies out, this made it look like the butterflies were flying off the page! 

Flower Box

This was the main project we focused on this time as it involved rock and roll, glittery, glossy butterflies, gorgeous rolled roses, and fluffy 3D flowers! 

If you would like to have a go at learning these techniques and doing these projects yourself please get in touch for a catch up class, I have several people who have expressed an interest so please don't hesitate, contact me now, at amanda_burditt@hotmail.co.uk

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I and six lovely ladies got up to on Saturday, and I would love to share it with you too. Please do leave a comment.

Hugs,

Amanda

for grandma

Last month was my Grandma's Birthday (just shows how hopelessly far behind I have gotten with blogging!!). She lives in America so I don't get to see her very much, but last year she braved the long flight and her breathing conditions to come over for Stuart's and my wedding! It was so lovely that she could make it, and she arrived on her 80th birthday! Well, a year has gone by and here is the card I made for her this year...

Grandma's Springtime Flowers

Stamp Set: Baby Blossoms

Ink: Not Quite Navy

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Old Olive, Baja Breeze

DSP: Springtime Vintage

Punch: 5 Petal Flower, Itty Bitty Pack, Boho Blossoms, Circle Punches

Extras: Dimensionals

I punched out a bunch of different flowers in the Spingtime Vintage DSP. I layered them all up including making some little rolled roses to add to the centres. I wrote a sweet quote I found on the internet on the label  from the Baby Blossoms and added it to the card with flowers around it. A pretty simple card really! 

I hope you liked today's simple share. There's more to come in the days ahead as I try to catch up on my blogging! Please do leave me a comment and let me know what you think, I love reading your comments. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Amanda xx
