Crafty Boots Challenge: Things With Wings

Hello everyone!! Today the 2nd Crafty Boots Challenge was launched - this fortnights theme is 'Things with Wings', so make sure you get involved. We was completely overwhelmed by the amount of crafters that got involved in the first challenge - so thankyou to everyone who offered their support!

The design team have done a fantastic job with all their projects, i love working with such a talented team! Here is my offering to the challenge, a cute little folding book - made completely of Stampin' Up! products of course!! I used 'Blushing Bride' and 'Whisper White' cardstock, 'Blushing Bride' 'DSP' (A current level 1 hostess prize), the retiring 'Strength and Hope' stampset and my trusty punches: '1-3/8" Circle', '1-1/4" Circle' and the 'Eyelet Border Punch' and the centre of the butterfly is all blinged up with some 'Basic Rhinestones'. So here it is:

Folding Book (all closed up):


Unfolded:



And in its completely open form:


All thats left to do is pop a couple of lovely photos and maybe a message and you have a lovely homemade gift for a friend of loved one!!

If you absolutely love the butterfly (from the 'Strength and Hope' stampset) you need to get a wiggle on and make a Stampin' Up! order because it is retiring at the end of September. Check out the Stampin' Up! sale and retirement list at the top of my blog - i'm offering an exclusive offer for all CraftyThINKer customers - an additional Stampin' Up! stampset with all orders over £45 during the month of September!! How can you resist?! Just email your order over to amyjtidd@gmail.com (Electronic versions of the catalogues are available on the right-hand side of my blog!)

Happy Crafting - Can't wait to see all you 'Things with Wings' creations!!
