Little Claire Likes - Butterfly Flourish Bunting

 Good morning, we are back today with our regular Monday project - 'Little Claire Likes'.

Today, we are showcasing the beautiful 'Butterfly Flourish' stamp set, which has lots of gorgeous images and a lovely sentiment.  The flourishes in the set are great for making borders and backgrounds.

You can purchase this wonderful set for only £6.99 (normally £8.99) HERE from the website at the reduced price until Thursday, 29th May 2014 or until stocks run out.

Here is the set
  

Heidi has made some bunting with some Kraft and Turquoise Bazzill Card, adhesive ribbon and wooden embellishments, all available from our website.
