Butterfly Birthdays

Hello Everyone!
Back today with a few butterfly cards!  I have been making lots of cards --over  100!!   How crazy is that!!  I have a nice stash now for every occasion.  Except Christmas.  Will have to get started on that now.  Well, back to the topic at hand:  Butterfly cards.



This card has a batik technique background.



This card features a beautiful decorative paper with a stamped, die cut butterfly.


Here, I added a 3-dimensional sticker to a striped paper. 

Will be back in a few days with more butterflies.  Have a great day!!

Quilt Collage

Hello Everyone!
I have something a little different today!  I was going through my fabric stash and found some vintage quilt blocks a friend (Thanks Rebecca) had given me when cleaning out her mother's home.  I thought the blocks were little works of art and should be treated as such.  I have a few blank canvases in the closet as I have been using them for all kinds of craft/art projects lately.  I pulled out the canvases and went to work.  I used Fabric-Tac glue to attach the pieces to the canvas.  And, here are the two pieces that resulted.


 Some vintage linens were also added to the quilt blocks.







The art pieces can go on the wall or look great on an easel too.  They were so fun to make too.  What do you think??

So glad you stopped by!!
