School holidays are over and the kids are back to school and kindy. Over the holidays it has become a tradition for me to run a "card class" for my kids (master-four, miss-six and miss-nine) - a sort of mum-and-me event! Anyhow, at our "class" these holidays we made a butterfly spiral pop-up card. They loved it! I had to make sure the card wasn't too complicated (for master-four), but had some interesting parts (for miss-nine). I was really impressed on how they all did. Here is my card...

Stamps: Butterfly Prints (retired), Bitty Birthday (115762). Card/Paper: Almost Amethyst (108621), Rose Red (108613), Barely Banana (106563), Whisper White (106549). Ink: Almost Amethyst (101723), Rose Red (101778), Barely Banana (101170). Tools: Butterfly Punch (116629), 1-3/4" Circle Punch (112004), Scallop Circle Punch (109043), 1-3/8" Circle Punch (104401). Non-SU!: Stick-on Rhinestones.

... and here are their re-productions...

... from left to right: master-four, miss-six and miss-nine. In fairness, I did give master-four a bit of help, where as miss-six and -nine did it all themselves.

Just as a side note, the Butterfly Prints stamp set I used here is no longer available (it was in the Summer Mini Catalogue, which finished on 31 March). However the Butterfly Punch from that same mini catalogue is still available.

Did you know that butterfly stamps from Flight of the Butterfly fits perfectly inside the Butterfly Punch? See page 82 of the 2009-2010 Idea Book & Catalogue.
