I love these little beauties and am sad to see that they're retiring at the end of this month along with the cute little stamp set Kindness Matters. This card was cased from the talented Becky Jensen - I pretty made mine exactly as she did. Why change a good thing? Anyway click HERE to view her blog. She has some lovely projects to see.
Inside the Soda Pop Tops, I've stamped the butterfly from Collage Curios stamp set which is also retiring at the end of June along with the Designer Builder Brad in the centre.

It's a nice short week here in New Zealand after celebrating Her Majesty's birthday on Monday. Queen Elizabeth's birthday is actually on 21 April, but her coronation took place on 2 June in 1953, so I think that must have something to do with New Zealand observing her birthday on the first Monday in June. Whatever the reason, I'm not complaining and love these short working weeks.
This is the card that my friend and fellow demonstrator Sally taught at our last Team event, a few weeks back {quite a few weeks ago now..}. I love the Vintage look and it's just a little bit fancy being a Twisted Easel card too.
And here's the side view~

As promised, here's the second vintage card we made at Sunday's class. With a little help from my Big Shot, it wasn't as time consuming as the first card we made. Do you recognise these butterflies? They're from the Kindness Matters stamp set, found on page 71 in the new catalogue. This set ticks all the boxes for me because there are images and messages and I love the font (even though I haven't stamped a message on this card). The best part of all, is the price $21.95 for clear mount or $27.95 for wood for 5 stamps. You can't beat that!!
