Artistic Expression - Creation Station Design Team Blog Hop

Welcome to my blog, and to the Creation Station Design Team Blog Hop for August. You are visiting Denita, from Australia.
You may have arrived from Sara's blog, and her amazing projects? I just love her stuff!

Our theme for this month is 'Artistic Expression' using any stamp set(s) found on pages 126-179 in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue.

I have chosen 2 stamp sets; 'Abstract Impressions' Bundle & 'Timeless Textures'

stamp sets for my card.

Have you ever noticed the 2 step stamps to create the mini butterfly? It's so cute!

And a splattering of 'Timeless Textures' for the background.

And a matching *gift box, made using the 'Gift Bag Punch Board'.

The 'Petal Pink Metallic Ribbon' is so lovely and I have made it into a belly band.

Using a strip of 'Petal Pink' cardstock, and adding the ribbon to create the closure.

*Cardstock measurements for the Gift Bag: 11" x 8" 

A lovely card and gift bag duo, ready for gifting.

I made the Butterflies antennae using a sliver of 'Basic Black' cardstock and curling with a 'Bone Folder'. 

 Next on the hop is my lovely friend, Kathy. And she has some awesome creations for you. 

Thankyou for paying me a visit and I look forward to seeing you next time.

Have a wonderful Sunday wherever you may be. D x
