We did a 6x6 scrapbook page and a card.<br />
I haven't taken a photo of the scrapbook page (and I have left it at my mother in laws house) but here is a pic of the card we made at the party. After I took this photo I covered the easter eggs in the basket with a bow of string.<br />
<br />

<br />
I was very excited to receive my Stampin Up order on tuesday with my big shot machine, the beautiful wings embosslit, medallion stamp as well as some other goodies! As you will tell I absolutly love my little butterflies!<br />
<br />
Here are some cards using some of my new stuff!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXcJOT_NBwf_O57qYjb07IfecbdUwFff4FC83yMjs00KTuPx1c7gmKrLL-htPPmOcyIxJNQfE1gVeO0RIWFNaG11v_zTWVLG0C-7z6IF_Ux3NrP6ZDmy05eluH37NTeG17V_HXFUYAtvAz/s1600/sunshine+butterfly.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="228" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXcJOT_NBwf_O57qYjb07IfecbdUwFff4FC83yMjs00KTuPx1c7gmKrLL-htPPmOcyIxJNQfE1gVeO0RIWFNaG11v_zTWVLG0C-7z6IF_Ux3NrP6ZDmy05eluH37NTeG17V_HXFUYAtvAz/s320/sunshine+butterfly.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>for this one I have used the medallion stamp to create a sun. I clear embossed this so that I could sponge the sky without disturbing the colours of the sun. I then used the beautiful wings embosslits die to make the butterflies.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibxoabjWaXbTyVWoyckx6wR8Dh2TnUXO-CSGnTfRyaotdEnJqyG8NXekRYRfCNCQR8a8YGA-rUCIubFEXcOFySpVg1gPM-gm8iZTxRNIqndpg4Y1MGZTiJ_7p1kPiqTfB413_furh00vcz/s1600/bright+butterfly.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibxoabjWaXbTyVWoyckx6wR8Dh2TnUXO-CSGnTfRyaotdEnJqyG8NXekRYRfCNCQR8a8YGA-rUCIubFEXcOFySpVg1gPM-gm8iZTxRNIqndpg4Y1MGZTiJ_7p1kPiqTfB413_furh00vcz/s320/bright+butterfly.jpg" width="228" /></a></div>for this card I have used the polka dots embossing folder and the beautiful wings embosslits die. The stamp is from the easter blossoms stamp set in the summer mini catalogue. I had a heap of tangerine tango card that I haven't been brave enough to use, but I think this turned out quite nicely.<br />
<br />
I have also kept myself busy making some cute birthday invites for my niece who turns 3 next week! I will take some photos and post this afternoon.<br />

Ok, sooo being new to this whole blog challenge thing (this is my 2nd), I was sitting at my desk sipping on my glass of wine thinking..."what on earth am I going to do with these colors??" I had run out of Peach Parfait card, because it would have to be my fav color at the moment! so I knew that the Peach Parfait element of my card was going to have to be stamped. I pulled out my fav stamp set at the moment, "Elements of Style" and a piece of whisper white card and stamped and colored away!! The rest of the card just fell into place from there!<br />
<br />
I hope you like!<br />
