Hinge Card and Eyelet Border Punch Flower

Hi friends.  Today I have two fun projects for you.  The first card has a flower made with the eyelet border punch.  It's easy to do, but does take some practice.  I know it's a little early for Easter Cards, but I really wanted to show you this flower.  Want to know how to make it?  Come next Thursday to find out.  Details are at the bottom of the post.

The next card is a hinge card.  Don't you love the way it opens?  I need to stamp the sentiment inside, but I'm still looking for the perfect one.  Any suggestions?  If so, leave a comment.  I'd love to know what you think.  We will also make this card next Thursday, though I'm still "tweaking" it.

It's hard to tell in the picture, but I used the Sprinkles set to stamp a light background on the top (butterflies) and the bottom (flowers).  It shows up just right in person.  I just couldn't capture it in the picture.

The bottom two butterflies are from the Bigz butterfly die and the small one on top is from the new embosslit.  Isn't is great how they go together?  I'll be posting more butterfly cards in the near future, so be sure to check back soon.
