Today's card is a step card that I have made for a special friend following this week's theme at Lili's Little Fairies:
The theme is Butterflies and Fairies. I have coloured my image with my Prisma Pencils and cut and matted her using Spellbinders. The large butterfly is a Spellbinder and I have cut it so it opens out to use for your greeting:
I have put a couple of little butterflies on the flower arrangement. The flowers are by Wild Orchid and the papers are First Edition. I would like to enter the following challenges:

I had a little helper yesterday when I was making my card:
Harry would not leave me alone (???!!) I think it was only because Dave was out so I was second choice. He jumped up there three times and on the third time I gave up and left him. He doesn't look too bad there but then he turned around with his back to me and spread himself all over my die cuts you can see there that I had painstakingly cut out. Then he started to wiggle and move around so the tin of Prismas you can see there ended up on the floor!! I had enough by then so tried to get rid of him and I got a swipe and the back of my hand scratched!! I think today I'll just give him the Prismas and tell him to get on with it lol!!
Well thanks for looking, have a good day and take care xx

Stunning is all I can say about this card! Actually Beautiful too!
And I love it! Harry is a pickle, cats do tend to take over don't they? Bless em. Flitterglu is made by Indigoblu and small company who made it specially to use for stamping with guilding flakes. I am looking forward to trying it - haven't got round to it yet - they make stamps too xx

This cat kind of looks like my Baby Girl - gorgeous!! Now how in the world do you make these cards. This is out of this world fantastic. Yep - my cats like to claim my stuff too and I am always cleaning up cat hair and sandy debris. They both go outside every morning. Sorry if I seem more interested in your cat than your card but I love them both. And yes, your cat owns you and all of your belongings!!!!
