So proud...

...of my daughter!!
She is currently studying for a degree in Education and would like to be a teacher.
She just found out that she has been accepted by all three universities she applied to for her post graduate teacher training course. She is very happy and we are very proud!!

This is the card I made to send to her...




 
The papers, ribbon and rosette are all from the Papermania Sew Lovely collection and the die is a Karen Burniston pop-up and insert from Sizzix.
Hope you like it...

Waltzingmouse Fanatics...use fabric

Just a quick post before I start night duty .
Thought I'd have a go at the latest waltzingmouse fanatics challenge which is to use fabric on a project  and WM stamps of course!!


 
I used a Karen Burniston die from sizzix to make the card base and framelits dies for the layered pieces.
I'd seen a tutorial on YouTube using freezer paper so I thought I'd give it a go...I ironed the floral fabric onto the freezer paper and it die cut beautifully.
The butterfly and sentiment are both Waltzingmouse...I did give up on cutting out the butterfly's antennae...pearly pins were so much easier!!
Hope you like it.
