Cuttlebug Challenge – Be Inspired #33 – Butterflies & Hearts

I wanted to have a go at this weeks Cuttlebug, Be Inspired challenge but unfortunately I don’t have the correct die set, so I’ve had to do my own thing for this card.

My flowers are made from various sized and shaped paper punched hearts, some of which I have embossed and my butterflies are peg stamps from the Butterfly Blooms Tapestry Stamp set that I’ve used around the edge of the card.

I know I’m always banging on about how I love these stamps but they are so very versatile and I wouldn’t be without mine. In fact I’m eagerly awaiting the delivery of yet another set from Susan’s Shop in the USA. .............Can’t wait for them to arrive!

If you get a chance, pop over and check out her fabby Blog too, she has some great tutorials on how to use the stamps on there……well worth a visit in my opinion.
