Friday Project - Butterfly Tree Pyramid card.

Morning everyone, Gaynor here,

Well first week back - and it feels fabulous, batteries recharged and ideas flowing.......and that's just work ha, ha,  I hope each and everyone enjoyed their Christmas and I wish you well for 2014.

On with today's project: A pyramid card - have been fancying a play with this style for a little while and the Friday Project gave me the incentive to play.  I have used the beautiful Butterfly Tree Stamp Set which includes additional stamps which I haven't used in this project.  Once again I have used my trusty promarkers, a little glitter glue and of course adhesive stones.

I cut 3 x 5" squares and scored a fold diagonally.

 
Using wet glue I joined the three squares together.

 
Showing both front and back views.

 
I punched three holes to thread ribbon through to assemble the card.


I threaded through the ribbon prior to adding my chosen pretty paper again using wet glue which allows the opportunity to line up correctly.


 
Die cut my shape using a nestabilities die and stamped and coloured in the image using the promarkers shown. I also cut a small die for the stamped sentiment.

 
Assembled the card using 3D foam pads, a couple of butterflies punched using a Martha Stewart Punch.


A little closer to show the embellishments used.

 
Finished card.

 
I hope you have enjoyed my little make.  Lots happening recently at Little Claire - delicious new stamps just released and more on the way.  New project challenge also begins tomorrow......
Well that's it from me for now......................xxGaynor
