Sweet Treats Magnifying Glass Card
Hi everyone,
Aren’t the days whizzing by at the moment? I’m sure we only celebrated New Years a few days ago yet here we are leaping towards the end of January already!
My card share today is a swap I made for our team stamping day a few weeks ago. I’d seen a few different people use the sweet treat cups as a magnifying glass and thought it looked soooo cute. This card was CASEd from Kirsty Brown‘s gorgeous layout, with a different colour scheme. I’ve also seen it done with lolly bugs and worms (the ‘Nerds’ kind) for a cute boys version.
I wrapped cotton a few times around the body of the butterfly and tied it in a knot, then trimmed the ends to look like feelers.
Just a hint when using the sweet treat cups: try designing your card as a top fold instead of side fold. This will make it more stable and less likely to tip over from the extra weight.

Absolutely adorable card Simone. Might just have to CASE this myself!
