OWH MIDWEEK THROWDOWN

Happy Saturday cuties! I made these cards earlier this week and am just getting around to sharing them! The Operation Write Home Midweek Throwdown is all about encouragement this week.  I am working on fall cards for OWH so hopefully these will work for the throwdown. 

This week has been all about using up some of my scraps and I certainly got rid of some while making these cards.  All of the papers for both of these cards are from my scrap pile (YAY!).

I was in AC Moore this week and saw a new display of embossing folders by Darice so I picked up several of them. Both of these cards use my new EFs.  The butterflies are part of the embossing. They are rubbed using a dauber with DI Tea Dye and embellished with blue rhinestones.  The digi stamp is from Doodle Pantry and is on a Spellbinders Fancy Tag Two. I rubbed it with DI Antique Linen before removing it from the Spellbinder. A MS double edge punch was used on the copper paper and placed under the tag.  I also die cut a flower from the same paper and placed it under the Prima flower.

Supplies for this card:

4.25 x 5.75 in - Butterfly Embossing Folder	Fancy Tags Two	Big Shot	Martha Stewart Crafts Double-Edge Punch Doily Lace Trim	Tattered Blossoms Die
