Back on track.....I think!

Haven't had time or inspiration for far too long but have started making again and quite pleased with the results.
This first card is for my DiL's birthday. She used to have a phobia about butterflies but has worked hard at losing it and I thought that these were so pretty that she couldn't really freak at them. Inspired by Jak's shattered glass glitter but I put far too much glue on - therefore loads of glitter and the butterfly weighed a ton when it was wet - luckily it dried much lighter. Then went a little overboard with the rhinestones. Very girlie.




The other two are really male cards. Like most other people I find these more difficult but rather like these.






Love using the sewing machine on cards, think this might be a trend for me.

I love them all. Butterflies are a favourite of mine, so I'm very biased as to which one i prefer. Well done, glad you got your inspiration back.

Oh I love the stitched card, something I have yet to try, I just can't bring myself to lug out the machine.
I don't think the butterfly is over the top Jean it looks quite ballenced to me, I think the butterfly must have weighed a fair bit though lol!
3 great cards, keep them coming.
