It's lovely to get some happy mail amongst the bills and advertising material. When I opened each of these little beauties they certainly brought a smile to my face. A big thanks goes out to all the 'senders'. XX

Photo Wallet and Butterfly Easel Card The Colour Combo for Just Add Ink's 57th Challenge Butterfly Easel Card I designed a butterfly easel card for my latest project at UStamp with Dawn and Friends using the Punch Bunch Stamp Set . For this challenge I popped the little butterfly from the Bliss Set , added some pearls and stamped the gorgeous flourish from the same SAB stamp set to form the background pattern for both die cut butterflies. I also sponged around the edges with River Rock Ink. PS: Thanks again to Nancy Riley for choosing this card as one of her iPicks for this week! Inside the Photo Wallet This would make a Lovely Hostess Gift (especially for a scrap-booking enthusiast) Complete with Photo Mats Instructions for the Photo Wallet can be found HERE .

Hi and welcome to the ESAD-SU, Sale A Bration Blog Hop . ESAD is an Aussie based group just for E xtremely S pecial A ussie and New Zealand Stampin' Up! D emonstrators. I joined this group just before Christmas and am excited to be part of my very first Blog Hop! I have made some examples from the Happy Moments Sale A Bration Stamp Set. It was a tough decision about which one I'd purchase for the pre-order as I LOVE all four of them! It was the little bird stamp that won me over but I'm looking forward to earning the remaining three during the SAB period. Sample 1 - Gift Box This little gift box was made from a template, taken from the SU Demonstrator Web Site Pattern Library (Box No. 21). It is featured in the SAB Catalogue (page 2), with the Vintage Labels Set. I loved the whole layout, so this is a CASE of the original.

Love is Like a Butterfly ... ... a Doily Butterfly Our Creative Corner has a challenge this week to make a project inspired by the following photo and then share why you love butterflies. I love butterflies because they symbolise new life and new beginnings. I am also submitting this as a second entry for the April Challenge at Bizzy Becs which is to add texture to your paper craft project. The butterfly was die cut from a long rectangular crocheted doily that I picked up at a market for $2. It has been adhered to the backing card stock with Big Shot Multi-Purpose Adhesive Sheets (Sizzix). The ruffled ribbon has been woven through the punched edging. PS: Thanks, Kim, for including this in your Punch Inspiration for 22/4. .................................................................. Now, I wish I had come up with this awesome idea to punch both sides of the card front to form three separate panels. As soon as I ...
