A paler shade of Pink

Oh what fun we had yesterday... Marie came up ... with a HUGE assortment of new toyz... and we played all day long with all these new toyz... all kinds of punches, embossing folders, die cuts of all kinds and stamps.. wow... we just had FUN PLUS.... I slept like a baby too... my mind was spinning, but I slept...

Anyway... Marie had brought along some toys... which if you want all the details... you will have to go to her blog to get the info... CraftEMarie...  she has all the links etc... but we had fun... she had brought the directions for this card... and also the one below... so we started to make this one together... but we soon were off on our direction...

She had to make a challenge card with Butterflies... so I had been looking for a long time... at least over two months... for this one SPECIAL piece of butterfly paper... and never could find it... I knew the plaid on the back of it... and also the butterflies on the front... but couldn't find it... but yesterday when she said butterfly paper.... I turned around and it was sticking up... so it was the right time to use this SPECIAL piece of paper... I love this paper... soft, sweet, colors are wonderful... and when I bought it I only bought two pieces... why??? I don't know... but you know all about those things... so I don't have to go there..

So I split the paper and we each used a piece of it... ( I still have half of it left... so we need to do another card with it Marie...I will wait until you come up to play again so we can finish it up...)  for this special card...

Isn't this just so delicate and pretty...

The borders are just wonderful..  Marie has the link for that on her site...
The butterfly... Spellbinder...

and the border at the bottom...
A new Martha punch... !!!!

Love it too...










The view from the other side... 

I just love this card...
Love the delicateness of it...





Each part that we added just made it more perfectly delicate...

The Martha PUnch is so pretty too...
I doubled that to create a place for the ribbon...






When you look at this card sideways...

Oh how perfect...

I did make a mistake when I first did this one... I scored in a place where I shouldn't have... but only someone who has made one would notice it...
Other wise... it is really an easy fun pattern... and not difficult at all..






Okay... I generally don't put anything on the inside of my cards... I had write a message or sometimes I will stamp something... but hardly ever decorate the inside... but MARIE made me do it...

So here is the inside of my card...  

I used a Just Rite stamp and also the ovals by Spellbinder... and the new Martha Punch around the 5 x 5 square... which fit perfectly on the inside of this card...

I love this card... and Thank You again Marie for being YOU...
for sharing, for coming up and playing, for enjoying our time together... Loved every minute of it...

Hope that you also will enjoy this time together and that you will try and make this card... Marie has the direction link on her blog... so please go and get the directions and make one... it is really easy...

Hope that you have had a wonderful day so far... and that you continue to do so... I just cleaned a basket of garlic and shallots for planting... which is now on going ... over in the main garden... LOL... we only have one huge one... but it sounds impressive doesn't it????  LOL... Enjoy...

Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie
