Procrastinating???? MEEEE??? Never !! :p

I do love this colour combo, Chocolate Chip & Kraft.. even sounds yummy doesn't it
I've been really bad at getting birthday cards to my friends on time which I'm not very proud of but I'll try to be better as the year goes on eek... perhaps I'm still in 'Christmas mode' I had flu over Christmas and I think I must have slept through it because I blinked and it was over !!

Ok so all products used are Stampin Up, the stamp set is 'Flight of the butterfly' and the papers are Bella Bleu which I think go really well with the Kraft cardstock. Love the chocolate chip stripey ribbon that I've used on both cards, so easy to tie too which is a bonus... isn't stiff like some ribbons

The flower on this card was made using Stampin Up's scallop circle punch and snipping and manipulating.. I'm sure you've seen this done before but if you haven't just drop me an email and I'll link you to a video showing this technique, as you can see once again I've used the same papers from the 'Bella Bleu' paper pack.

Hope everyone is well in Blogland :)
