I hope you are all well and not too cold and wet in which ever part of the world you are in. It is sunny here today but the last few days have been cloudy, cold and abit rainy.
My cards I want to show you today are pleated, an idea I pinched from John Next Door HERE I,m sure he wont mind!!!!
This shows how the card is folded and stuck down.
The gorgeous butterfly die is 'Tonic' Butterfly set I bought at my local craft shop when I went with John on Thursday, so gorgeous I couldn't resist it.
This one I pleated in a different way.
Homemade tags for sentiment.
The lovely ivy die is Marianne LR0206 and it comes with a little bird house and bird.
Flowers are Cheery Lynn roses die and I stuck a tiny pearl in each centre.
