Hi Everybody,I used to be a real sun fan at one time but as I got older the heat bothers me more and I can no longer sit in it for long.
So these cards are reflecting my love of Autumn and the beuatiful colours that go with this season
The leaves turning to golds and browns and there seems to be a softness about everything before the winter takes hold.
For the top card I have used the Brick pattern and the card to the left I have used the Bark and both these patterns are in one folder.
They both make for an unusual type of backdrop and are especially useful for male cards.
The flowers and leaves on this card are from Wild Orchid Crafts and there is a hatpin pushed into the display.
The petals have been sparkled with glitter. Then either pearls or enamel dots finish off the cards
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
Beautiful Christina
ReplyDeleteAll lovely but really fell for the white dainty one
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous. I am glad you are getting back into flower arrangements. You are brilliant with those.
ReplyDeleteMorning Christina, three fantastic cards they are all beautiful, although the feminine does sing to me.

Wow! All of your cards are beautifully crafted. I think my favorite would be the one made with the Cascading Grace set but they all have great appeal.
ReplyDeleteThese cards are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is #2 with the brick background :))
I like both these but especially the second - really beautiful.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks,
Sue Mac
3 lovely cards with all having their own point of difference. Lovely the colour tones used
ReplyDelete3 beautiful cards. Hard to say which I prefer - possibly the brick background. Love the colours xx
ReplyDeleteThree really outstanding cards, I like you cannot take the heat, like to see the sun, but never to sit in it...I love the autumn colours...luv Ursula xx
ReplyDeleteMorning, Christina,
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, I much prefer autumn to summer. My sister has always been a sun worshiper but I've always preferred to stay 'pale and interesting', well, pale anyway lol. So I love these autumnal cards today, especially the woodland collection one complete with acorns. We had quite thick fog overnight and when I let the dog out all I could see was a faint ghostly orange glow from a forlorn Street light oupside the cattle markethe...don't I live in the classy area lol.
Bejay, off to turn the heating on xx
Morning Christina
ReplyDeleteSuch gorgeous cards, especially the last one. Beautiful autumnal colours

Good Morning Christina :) Ohhhh what BEAUTIFUL Cards this morning! Love, Love, Love... I have to say, while they are ALL Beautiful, my fave is the last one. I don't do well in the heat either. I love the fall and winter; but, winter here in northern Michigan can last up to 8 months. I only love the snow for two months! We got our first dusting of snow last night... and it's still on the ground. There have been times when we've had snow stay on the ground from October 15th thru the end of May - just before Memorial Day weekend. And other times we have faired a little better. The best thing is to keep the sunshine in your heart all year! Thank you so much for the BEAUTIFUL Cards this morning. Enjoy your day Dear Lady. Big Hugs.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHi Christina, 3 lovely cards, but I have to say my favourite is the 3rd one! So very delicate and pretty. I am the same with regards to the sun, I can't stay in it more than a few minutes. I used to be in the sun for hours when younger, wish I could now. Ah well! lol!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Karen xx
nice variety, thank you. Diana
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Christina. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI no longer can be in the sun for very long either. Lovely cards.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, I do prefer the feminine card though.
ReplyDeleteThey are all just Beautiful, I am the same way with the sun anymore, just can't take it for long
ReplyDeleteHi Christina these cards are beautiful, I have the Cascading Grace Die did you produce this card just using the dies and no base card and folded and glued along the top, did you put anything on the inside of the card it does look really feminine and pretty.
