Another card and voucher wallet for one of my best friends

I has been a gorgeous day here in Surrey, that the 4 of us and some friends went to the first day of opening at Chessington World of Adventures. The place was absolutely packed - busier than it has been in the summer holidays, and everyone there were annual pass holders. We did a lot of the rides, although only once because of the size of the queues, but no one wanted to try out their new ride - the Cobra - it made us all feel sick just watching other people on it.

I've come back to make a card for one of my best friends whose birthday is on Tuesday, and I also managed to make a double gift voucher card holder as well, which was a bonus.

I'm back in my comfort zone, with butterflies and embossing, as I really like this style of card, and they are relatively quick to make. The embossing is a cuttlebug folder, the ribbon came from my stash, and I cut the butterfly out on the craft robo using some gold glitter card, which is very sparkly but you can't really tell from the photo. I cut a smaller version of the butterfly out for the gift card holder.
