I've made a couple of more cards with "springy thingys" to share with my card making group on May 5. The shiny ivory panel is embossed with a cuttlebug folder and matted with black. A dark blue ribbon holds the sentiment with a Gina K. Designs stamp and two blue rhinestones.
My next card was made with the For Fun Challenges in mind. The challenge is to use a bunny, not Easter. This little digital image is from Anne Bodil and looks so cute on this "welcome little one" card -- that sentiment is from Layers of Color and is cut out with a Spellbinders Banner die, with another die cut in patterned paper as a shadow.
So, now I have three examples to show to my group. Elegant, Fun and Christmas (which you can see here). I know the ladies are going to have fun making a card with this technique.
For me, I'm going to try to go back to bed now. It's around 3 am and I woke up just a little too warm to stay in bed but I'm cooled off now. Not hot flashes, just the weather, and we haven't turned the fan on in the bedroom yet!! May have to get the fan blades dusted off later today!!
See 'ya later,
Betty

Both of these are wonderful Betty. Love that first one with the gorgeous embossing and butterfly.
Wow--just gorgeous! That butterfly is so realistic!

Love your butterfly "springy thingy".
I loved the idea so much I had to go to the Dollar Store and get some wire. lol
I am also going to refurbish one of my cards with your idea.
So thank you.

I bet you are having so much fun showing the group all of your tricks! These will make great examples! As for the heat, let me just say we had heavy frost this morning. I thought I was seeing things! Hard to believe it is time for another Rose's Challenge, huh? Time is just zooming!
These are just wonderful! Your group is going to love making them! I wake up with hot flashes... there's not a fan around that can cure that!
What a fab baby bunny creation... I adore those dots!Thanks for sharing with us at For Fun Challenges.

Betty, both cards are gorgeous!! I love the elegance of the first one!!

Betty,
I too wake up in the middle of the night, would never dream of blogging though. If I tried to blog I would never go back to sleep. I'm really loving these springy cards. I'm sure your group is going to have so much fun.
