Butterfly Cards
I decided to branch out and do something crafty that I've never done before. I made a few cards for my mom. First, I bought a blank card set at Michael's for $1 (don't tell my mom... then again, she might be proud of my thriftiness :). I'm pretty sure they always have cards like these stocked in their discount section. Then, I used a butterfly shaped hole punch by Martha Stewart, an alphabet stamp set, and my sewing machine.

You always amaze me with your ambition. So talented! Hope you and Dave are enjoying the Lord's blessings. I remember being with you at Oakbridge when you were epecting Lucy. We prayed for my daughter, Natalie, who was struggling with bolemia.

I love paper, more than fabric. I just love creating something quick and beautiful...like your cards. It fulfills my "product over process" wiring that often leaves me tired in the middle of a sewing project. Hence, the lack of sewing. Oh, and waiting for your powder room update!
beautiful! Now, I need to go to Michael's! lol
You need to be careful because cardmaking can be addictive.I know from experience!! :) www.splitcoaststampers.com has a lot of neat card making ideas. I have a lot of ideas on my blog as well. I love the simple elegant look of your cards, plus I love butterflies.
Ooo...I love these! Butterflies are my favorite :)

I love it!!!! I have a friend who has "Card Making Club" once a month! It's so fun to see friends and make cards at the same time ;-)
God bless!
I LOVE this idea! Thanks for the inspiration! A friend just sent me your blog today and I'm enjoying reading through your great projects. I love to design, craft, sew, cook and decorate (among other things). Nice to "meet" you!
