FLUTTERBYS!

I live in senior independent living - it's great way to live - have a large apartment, meals, tons of activities from which to choose - besides I am now living 15 minutes from my daughter - best perk of all.  I teach a card class every month - usually have about 15-20 of the residents in every class - so it's a challenge to think up a card and then do all the prep of the materials for the class. 

I made several sample cards for ideas for the group.  I cut out tons of various colored butterflies from Altenew Fluttering Fantasies - also leaves from Itty Bitty Branches.  Had three trays of a mixture of sizes and colors of butterflies on the tables - other supplies were in their packets - card base, sequins. leaves.  As everyone finished, I spattered their card with gold metallic ink.

Thanks for stopping by.

  2. What a wonderful life you must have Betty with a lovely bunch of like-minded friends! You have inspired me to think about putting on a one-off class with our U3A organisation here in Gloucester Australia. I so enjoyed reading your blog! And your Flutterby cards look gorgeous!
