  3. Hi Sandra,
    We can't get enough butterflies ! They are beautiful and the big one is gorgeous! Have looked at those Creata Cards and wondered about them but never bought any.
    Your turquoise butterflies are lovely.
    Sorry you had a trying day at the Eye Clinic.
    I had a day with Crfting Children. For some reason this year my group of 7 - 10 yr olds has had no boys! Never happened before. Well I decided to do girly bangles today - yes you've guessed it a little boy turned up! Thankfully in my bag I had a football stamp and boots stamp so we created a door hanger with those! Phew! Poor little lad - he said to me - " it ain't your fault Miss - think I'll bring a mate next week! " . Children are just great!
    Thanks for your kind comments about my cards but I keep forgetting to photograph them! I also put two photos of my tidied up Craft Room in ! My lovely daughter in law was impressed - she saw the before!
    Must go,
    Love Myra. - hope all went well at Eye Clinic. Xx

  5. HaHa Myra,glad I'm not the only one who gets señor moment's.
    Do you do the children's crafting in a school, I love the little boy's way of thinking,it wasn't your fault & he is bringing a friend,so pleased he stayed with all the girls.It must be Just lovely to teach them crafting,do you do card making too.
    My friend has quite a few of The Creat a card
    Die's, She also has just got some of the new Tonic die's they were on C&C CHA launch pop up ones, she also cut me the pop out tree & yes another butterfly one. You want to see how many Die's she has honestly she could open a shop. I don't think she will ever use them all.
    She gave me 3 Tonic die's last week as forgot she had them already,still I'm not complaining.Her brother who passed away they both never married so she inherited everything.Good luck to her.
    I will have a look at your tidy craft room.
    Love & Hugs Lynda or am I Sandra hehe xxx

  6. HI Lynda or Sandra,

    Sounds like you have been playing with some new dies, lucky girl!
    Sending you, Terry, Annie & Bambi big hugs,

  7. Hi Sandra,
    Beautiful card Lynda, gorgeous colours, love the flower too and butterflies are something I just never get sick of...I nearly always try to pop one on my cards, I even converted my auntie (also my best friend....not a crafter though! Hmmm!) who just didn't like butterflies! Yikes! But she does now!! I bought a lovely circle of butterflies die from Chloe's Stamps it so pretty....haven't used it yet though.
    Have a good day and keep warm roll on Spring!
    Love Sheila xx

  9. Hi Lynda You bring us butterflies every day if you want because this card is beautiful, the colour is lovely and the little blue felt flower is so cute. Can you put butterflies on a card for men ? Have two to make for early February and not sure what theme to go for...
    How did you do at the eye doctors ? Had Dentist this morning (do not like!) clear for the next six month ,yay! Cold outside but sunshine and blue sky,nice. Take care and Warm Hugs to you all Maria x

    1. Hi Maria,
      Thank you glad you liked it. I don't see why you couldn't put a butterfly on a man's card,i think men like them as much as we do,but perhaps not as many as i do. lol
      Eye appointment was ok i have the start of glaucoma in right eye & high pressure,so have got to put drops in at night for ever.
      so hopefully they help.

  11. Hi Lynda,
    I truly Love your Beautiful Butterfly Card I Love the colourway you have chosen, I keep meaning to purchase The Butterfly Dies From Sue as I Love Butterflies so much, but there's always something else comes along that I want in the Crafty way, I'm trying to set up a Blog but have no idea how to start have you any advice for me.
    Take care.
    Hugs from Sam xxx

    1. Hi Sam,thank you so much for your lovely comment's, butterflys are gorgeous aren't they. I know what you meen about getting new die's like Sue's they are all on my list then blow me down she bring's a new collection out
      It's impossible to keep up with them all. I only tend to get Sue's die's now.
      Regarding the blog to be honest Sam I didn't know what I was doing when Sandra said to me give it a go.What I did was I typed on Google 'starting a free blog' & this one came up then you pick a page designe,it dose guide you through it. Just try it & see,if I can do it anyone can. You have a Google account so you should be ok.Good luck Sam.
      Love Lynda xx
