28th October 2017 Less is More Card.

Hi everyone, been so busy with such a lot of family and friends birthdays. So have been doing some cards on lovely silk linen cardstock ' Less is More ' style.  Had a good search in my boxes of stamps and found some totally forgotten really nice stamps.  On this card I used a Hero Arts stamp of three seperate roses.

I stamped each rose and coloured with Copics, mounted each one onto some stitched edged rectangle dies, double layered the dies, added a Happy Birthday.....done  !

I kept the inside of the card plain. 

Hope you like my card, thank you for stopping by, have a lovely weekend xx

21st October 2017 Back to A little Shabby Chic again/

Hello. I have been doing a little bit more Shabby Chic style again, just love making the flowers. Anyone that has not tried making them using Foamiran, do have a go, follow instructions on YouTube there are some great tutorials out there. Once you have tried making them, be warned you will get hooked !  The card I have to show you has three pink Foamiran flowers on it, I used a roll your roses die from Spellbinders which I have had for ever.

I used Pion design paper for the background.

A closer peep at the flowers. Crafters have different ways of colouring the Foamiran, I find the best that sits me, is white Foamiran and a water soluble crayon , pink in this case, the edges of the petals touched back and front before heating and rolling.

When making a card I always prefer to do the inside to match the front.

Hope you like my card, thank you for taking a peep, take care xx

6th October 2017

Hi everyone, Autumn is well and truly on it's way. The trees are loosing their leaves among a riot of crimson, copper moss greens and golds, absolutely beautiful. It is one of my favourite times of the year. On a plus side....you know what to wear when you go out, something a little warm and snuggly, but not too heavy, leave that for the Winter.

Today I have some more card toppers to show you, the first is from an image by Pion Design.

I made the Foamiran flowers and popped a little rose in each centre, my lovely ivory dried gypsophilia adds that Shabby chic look to it.

 Next is a LOTV topper , bridesmaids from their latest range. Coloured with Copics.

I added the pretty stamp and die cut wedding bells which are from Heartfelt Creations.

I really love those die cut frames, Pearl Pin dot by Tattered Lace and have circles, squares and rectangles, which I use such a lot.

Thank you for taking a peep at my work, always appreciated, have a lovely day xx
