All things bright and beautiful

 I really enjoyed working with the patterned paper from Cosmo Crickets Salt Air Mini Deck. The little butterflies were from their butterflies and doilies pack. I had to restrain myself from adding one of their lovely buttons too. Such lovely colours. Perfect for this time of year as we jump from Spring into Summer.

And on the inside......
 One of my must visit sites is http://apassionforpapertrey.blogspot.com/
Last week this was posted. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-y9-nlvJJ_gg/Tawbu1pbGZI/AAAAAAAACuM/wKl5hgZeg6w/s1600/shobana.jpg
I had to try it out.
Here is the link to Shobana's site http://timepasshobbies.wordpress.com/2011/04/11/my-first-pop-up-card/
and here is the link to the video tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUGrIop_pwo&NR=1
I used patterned paper for the above. It really is a little too heavy paper for this pop up. I made it work as I just had to use 'Salt Air' on this card.
Also to practise I cut the flowers originally with plain paper just as in the video but for the flowers here I used my  little slice machine to cut out seven  'eight petal flowers' and proceeded on as in the video
Try it and enjoy. Happy Easter.
