Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

March 21, 2014

Friday Freebie 003

Hi Everybody,

Thank you all for being so understanding  and supportive of yesterdays post.

Norah  responded warmly and claimed her card straight away and I hope you like it Norah ... it's on it's way

So here is this weeks Friday Freebie and it is a very pretty lilac card ... and this one is complete with hatpin.but it is not removable ... unless you wanted to really pull it out of the flowers.

It is a 5x7 with the fold at the top and the card used is the 270 gsm Linen effect from Papermill Direct    This is the card I use for most of my designs and it is a really good quality

So the other suppliers are ...
Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts  with the sparkle from Glitter Magic

The silver edged ribbon is from Mei Flower  and the pearly flourish is from Want2Scrap

To win the card all you need to do is leave me a comment and at 9 pm this evening a  winner will be drawn from the list and the name published in the morning.

And can I ask you please to come back and check, if you added your name,  to see if you are the winner because if the card is not claimed within 48 hours then it will go to someone else.

More tomorrow...

Hugs xx

  31. Good morning Christina,
    Another beautiful creation in such beautiful colours. I think that the flowers you arrange on the cards are always picked out to bring out the best in your cards and today is no exception. I love how you have used the card that you cut the topper out of to show the lilac layer through as i never even thought that i could if used a big enough piece of card make it the focal point. Thank you Christina once more for your inspiration,
    Love and crafty hugs

  35. Wow, am I the first up today? Come on people and check out this, wonderful, typical Christina style card. As usual, a tasteful confection of wonderfully tied ribbon, deeply embossed card, spectacular die cut lacy shapes, perfect pearls, interesting, hand made hat pin embellishment and the sweetest message, all in a soothing lilac colour.
    Love to all,
    Janice W

  89. Hi Christina, what a lovely card, and I would so love to enter, but once again your "add your link" button has disappeared to me! I do not know why this keeps happening, but it does quite a lot! I will check again over the next few days to see if it re-appears and add my name. Further to that, I do see everyone's messages, but no list of entrants as there usually is.... is this just happening to me??? Hugs ... Karen xx
