Hi Everyone
I hope you have all had a wonderful Monday!
The sun has had its happy hat on today and been shining beautifully .. .. in fact lovely enough to make myself loads of ironing .. .. grrrr!!! As if I don't have better things to do LOL!
So sunshine makes you think of flowers .. .. and flowers make you think of butterflies .. .. and then I suddenly realised I hadn't played along with Mrs A's Butterfly Challenge this time round. Best put that right as there aren't many hours left to enter Challenge Number 3 where the theme is "A Stitch in Time" .. .. which is stitching .. .. either real or faux!
So here is my make.
This used:
Sentiment Stamp: Hero Arts "H4938" Happy Birthday!
Backing Papers: First Edition Paper: Daydream
Memory Box Dies: Moonlight Butterfly and Kaleidoscope Butterfly
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
X-Cut Punch: Small Flower
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Ribbon and Pearls from my stash box

Now round to those little twine flowers I promised to give away. I was very surprised and touched by how many of you lovely blog buddies liked my little flowers enough to want to use them on your creations
.. .. so a lucky dip it was .. .. with the dip being performed for you personally by Mr Heart.
.. .. and the winner of the 5 twine flowers (all nestled in their own little storage box waiting to be loved)

In fact you will have 6 flowers to use Bernie if you pull the one off the top of the box !!
I hope you like them and enjoy will enjoy using them. Just email me your details and I will get them into the post for you. My email address is on my profile page.
So that is me for today. Thank you and commiserations to everyone who joined in but didn't win. I will have to do the same again sometime.
I suppose some of that ironing will have to be tackled tonight :-( I hope your evening is going to be a little more exciting than mine.

Hope you didn't go blowing up my stream looking for those newts! Thank you for fluttering in #3. Always nice to see you here as I know your time is precious. Hugs Mrs A. (Butterfly challenge).

That will teach me to be a bad blogger - I miss out on lovely candy! Your flowers are super and I love the little box. I should enter Mrs. A's challenges too. I have lots of butterflies but I forget to use them. Your prettily stitched card has inspired me! Hugs, Lesley
What a gorgeous card Jules. Yes, the sunshine addles our brains and we do daft things like lots of washing which in turn leads to...you know what! Nice to see the sun though, I was beginning to think it had done a bunk forever! Hugs x
Love, love, love this card! There is so much wonderfulness about it I don't know where to start--the colors, the design, the funky font of the greeting, the butterflies, the silver centered flowers.... well, can I just say it is all perfectly perfect.
Such a lovely card Jules. Beautiful combination of colours.
