Friday Freebie 011

Friday Freebie 011
Hi Everybody,

Todays Freebie card is in blue Centura pearl and white and has lots of layers and embossing and is bigger than normal at 6x8 inches

It has a lovely organza ribbon wrapped around it and tied in a quadruple  bow with a large pearl centre.

The pearls are from Want2Scrap  and I have just added them in the top corner.

The verse is from JustRite Stampers   and matches the Labels Twenty Nine from Spellbinders.
So if you would like to win this card then all you have to do is leave me a comment at the bottom of the post.

Then later this evening Griff will pick a name and it will be given in tomorrows blog post.

You will then have 48 hours in which to claim the card and give me your postal address.

Some people are not reading what is needed to be done to win this card or any other of the Friday Freebies.

They are just sending me their addresses simply because they want a card.   The name is drawn at random by my "Film Crew"  and announced the next day.

This will be the last FF card for two weeks as I am going to be unavailable.  But it will be back soon.

There are lots of scheduled posts coming up as I won't have access to the internet

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  58. Oh, pooh, now what am I going to do for the next two weeks? I look forward to seeing one of your cards every morning when I get on the computer. The only problem is that they make me want to go out and buy all of Spellbinders' and Sue Wilson's dies. I'm not trying to win the card because I live in the U. S., but I just wanted to let you know how much I love your cards..and that you will be missed for the next two weeks. Please hurry back. :)

  60. Hello Christina, very nice card as usual, only one question why the black ribbon? I do love the ribbon & bow only was questioning the color.

  65. Wow Christina, another stunning card today, not a day goes by when I don't think 'wow'... Your choice of dies, (both of which I have...) the design, your use of card & the beautiful bow all together turn an ordinary card into something that is extraordinary. Your tying of the bow is beautiful - I know you've shown us how to tie bows but you must have magic fingers! (unlike mine that don't work...)
    Thank you for teaching us so much. Hugs xx
