My Mum's Craft Shop DT for the September Challenge - Die cuts and Punches

Hello Everyone! I am back! I have had a bit of a break from blogging over the Summer and am back now with my DT card for this month's My Mum's Craft Shop Challenge. Our theme this month is a nice easy one. It is dies and punches. My Cuttlebug is my most used piece of craft equipment so this was a perfect theme for me to return with. Apologies for the photos, they have come out a bit dark...I am out of practice!

I used a Hobby House die cut as the topper for my card and used some gorgeous Marianne Design papers which were donated to me by my lovely Friend Petra. I used Dienamics dies to cut the tags for the rub on sentiments. I added lots of gorgeous Ribbon Girl goodies including pearl stems, denim ribbon, hessian ribbon, tiny ric rac and lots of paper flowers.

Here is a close up of the gorgeous topper. I love using these images for my cards when I am not in the mood for colouring. There are lots of new Hobby House toppers and some gorgeous new flowers in stock too, check out the new arrivals here! 
I hope you will be able to join us for this Challenge for the chance to win a voucher for My Mum's Craft Shop.Have a lovely Monday!

A Beautiful Butterfly for Dies week at My Mum's Craft Shop.

Hello Everyone!  I am starting off a new themed week on the My Mum's Craft Shop blog and I have a card to share with you today which I have made using one of my favourite recent purchases from My Mum's Craft Shop...the beautiful Marianne Designs Butterfly die. I saw this at the trade show earlier this year made up using felt and it was truly stunning.

I have used mine to cut some of the beautiful new My Mind's Eye Find your Wings and Fly Away papers and made an anniversary card for my Parents. I used a Paper smooches sentiment from the Good Gab set.

I kept my layout quite simple, adding a little stitching and some paper flowers and used flower stamens for the butterfly antennae. I added some buttons from my stash to the butterfly, some gorgeous pleated ribbon from the Ribbon Girl and finished with some stick on pearls and gems. I hope you have a lovely Sunday.
