For the July workshops we have been playing with the Mixed Bunch stamp set and the Blossom Punch and turning the stamped flowers into butterflies. Here's two different shaped butterflies...

These cards have a finished size of 9.8 cm square (3-7/8"), which is a handy size as you can cut three from one sheet of A4 card stock. Now that I have the Diagonal Plate for the Simply Scored, I can create perfectly fitting envelopes for these cards.

To make an envelope with a finished size of 4-1/4" square, you start with a piece of card stock 6-3/8" square. Then score diagonally on all four corners at 3". Cut out the triangles on all four sides and then fold up your envelope. It's that easy!

These cute little cards, with matching envelopes, were made to give to everyone who placed an order during July to say, "thank you". There's a couple of techniques in these cards... The Rock and Roll technique on the butterflies using Blushing Bride and Regal Rose ink, and faux-stitching using the mat pack and white gel pen. Plus they feature a few products from the Autumn-Winter Mini - Twitterpated DSP, Twitterpated Designer Buttons, Mixed Bunch stamp set and co-ordinating Blossom Punch.

Dont forget the Autumn-Winter Mini finishes on 31 July. I am placing an order with Stampin' Up! over the weekend, so if you would like any of these before the mini finishes, let me know today.
