You know I love vintage! My husband and I have spent many hours wandering in antique stores. My daughter has a passion for vintage cookbooks and magazines - she comes by it honestly. We are also packrats - not quite hoarders, but afraid we might get there!
My mom and dad just built a new house and they are certainly NOT packrats! Mom gave me boxes of stuff before they moved. She knew I wouldn't be able to get rid of any of it! Their house is perfectly neat, not so mine. I tease Mom that she failed to make me a neat freak!
I found this very cool vintage butterfly embroidery page at Vintage Crafts and More. Debra loves to share her vintage patterns - go check out her blog and enjoy her goodies! THIS POST has more of the instructions and patterns for an embroidered butterfly quilt.
You can download the vintage butterfly embroidery page HERE.
I love the butterfly embroidery page - I'm pretty sure I'll be creating something with it again.
Hope you've had a wonderful week and here's wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Love your make Lori.
ReplyDeleteI find it difficult to throw stuff out. You can be sure that whenever I've had a clear out, a few days later I NEED one of the things that I dispensed with LOL

I love butterflies! I think these are gorgeous! Wonderful layering! Thank you for the free background! I find it hard to part with crafty items - some day I might use that! But I don't mind letting go of other stuff.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Lori. I love what you did with the butterfly embroidery sheet. That's exactly how my blog got started, my love of vintage and not being able to get rid of any of it. Thanks! Debra
ReplyDeleteThank you! Love these cards! What dies did you use for the two butterflies in the one card?
ReplyDeleteThe butterfly dies are so pretty - they are Life is Beautiful from Papertrey Ink.
DeleteThis is Gorgeous Lori. I keep everything also because I might need it someday..Loz
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not a neat freak. I like the house to have a little bit of clutter, though. Just enough to not look like a model home. Unfortunately, that's a line I cross often...
