Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

December 14, 2018

Friday Freebie - Serene Beauty

Hi Everybody,

I am so sorry for the lack of blog posts this week  but if you read my blog regularly I am sure you will understand why.

Now this card is completely in my comfort zone with all the beautiful embellishments I have added to it.

I have used the oval die from my own brand Card Making Magic and it is available from Craft Stash 

The A4 stamp set was with Creative Stamping  in June this year and it has some lovely images and sentiments on it.

The video to show you some of my ideas is Serene Beauty   and includes this floral card to just a simple background

So if you would like to have this stamp set then please leave me a comment at the end of the post with your FULL NAME.

I will let you know in tomorrows blog post who has won both  the stamps and the card so be sure to come back and check.

All the winners are listed each week in the Winners Page so that you can check again if you wanted to know

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  3. I'd love to go into the hat for this beautiful set. And I think most of us would fully understand if you took a complete break from blogging for a while. Have as good a Christmas as you can, I hope the memories it will bring will give you some happy moments.
