18th December 2014

A pretty cream and chocolate brown filigree card


Weather so dark and dingy here in the U.K. so don't feel up to going too far from home, so it gives me a chance to get some more crafting done  !!  Tea is all ready for just switching on, veg done and sitting in the saucepans waiting for some heat, so though that I would show you all my latest card.

Every now and then you feel as though you have created something that really appeals to you, it could be the style or the  colour, but you just know that  " I love this card  " !!    Feel like I want to send it to me ......


I used cream and silver grey card.  I embossed the cream card and then did two rows of the new die from Spellbinders Shapeabilities that I received only the other day.  It's called Mary Border Strip S4 -441.

I die cut the plain border underneath in the silver grey and overlaid the cream die cut on top





I added some very lovely chocolate brown satin ribbon across the middle of the card, and a matching bow.





The large flower is from my stash, and added to it are some tiny roses in a very almost non-pink,  mixed with slightly larger cream roses.
A touch of gypsophila among the die cut leaves  to add to the finishing touches  
Must not forget the hand embellished stick pin among the flowers, done in pinks , cream and brown to match the jewel that sits in the center of the satin bow.



I did exactly the same to the inside of the card with the Spellbinder die, and the satin ribbon, but layered in silver grey and cream  Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles to write your message.

Just getting used to uploading photographs  a little better. As we all know if you are not used to computer technology , and some one tells you to do this or that......Dhhh !  Sorry have not got a clue what they are talking about.....or is it just me  ?  Hope not ! 

Anyway managed to do it all by myself so feeling quite smug, one photograph disappeared into thin air, can't find it anywhere, but don't tell anyone  ! 

Until my next card,  thank you for taking a peek ,take care, see you soon xxx
