Tied Together in Pink ...

Hi Everybody,

Here is a very pretty card in Pink Centura Pearl embossed with the Tied Together folder once more.

I enjoy using this folder as you can dress it up as you wish ... either plain or fancy.

I like to add pearls on to the cross sections but there are lots of ways to make it even prettier.

The flowers are from  Wild Orchid Crafts and I have added punched leaves into  the corsage.

I have been asked many times which punch is this.  It is the Ash Branch  from  L-Em  and this is the link to the item.

It is one I use quite regularly on my flowers and it is very delicate in the display.

I have added in some glitter to the petals and it is from Glitter Magic  that little bit of sparkle makes all the difference to your display.

The flower trim is from Wild Orchid and the ribbon was in my "Stash"   The verse is from Crafters Companion and is from the Sentimentals Range.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Pink and Yellow ...

Hi Everybody,

Todays card features more of the beautiful flowers that  Wild Orchid Crafts  have very generously sent me to "Give Away"

This little cluster is a mixture of Roses and Cherry Blossoms.

The leaves are from a punch called the Ash Branch and it is from  L- Em Punches

I really like the pink and yellow colour scheme ... it makes for a very unusual combination.

The stamp is from Crafters Companion and is part of the  Humphreys Corner collection.

The Spellbinders used are Classic Ovals and Classic Scalloped Ovals ... but I can't remember the name of the fancy one at the very back.

I have added a little shoe charm to this card and it has been coloured by me with Spectrum Noir Pens.

If you would like to  win some of these flowers  then ...  here is the link ... ... for you to add your name to the growing list.

If you don't have a Blog it doesn't matter ... just leave the URL box blank ... but leave me your name and email so that you can be notified if you win.   Become a follower ... if you aren't already and leave me a comment please.  I am more than happy to send them to you wherever you live. 

Only leave your name once and if you add it twice by mistake ... then the little red cross that comes up alongside your name means that you can delete it.... any duplicate entries will be removed.

Good Luck 

Hugs xx

Happy Valentines' Day

I hope you have all had a good day so far and got lots of Valentines from the one you love.

Griff loved his card but the first thing he said was ...." Some woman has left me a card,  I think she must know my wife though coz she's left me one of hers" 

I got my card at breakfast,  along with some flowers and an invitation to dine out this evening..... of course I said Yes ... and so the diet will have to start tomorrow ..... again!

But it has pride of place ... alongside the one he bought for me on top of the TV.




Now I hope you like this very beautiful lady .....  her name is Maude Doodlebun , and she is from  Just Inklined 

You will find many fabulous images there for you to download and colour in.... my favourite section is the "Wrinklies" they are just a wonderful set of fun characters ... for people of a certain age!

Maude has been coloured with Promarkers and I have used Glossy Accents on her glasses. Once it is dry it shines and looks like the lenses.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts  and they are a selection of Cherry Blossom,  10mm and 25mm white roses,  and some blue and white flowers that I don't know the name of.

The leaves are punched from the Ash Branch punch from   Leonie Em   You will find them in the product section under Extra large punches.

The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley and there are several different ones all on one sheet.  This one says ... Believe that you are wonderful..."   and I think that Maude is just that!!

Hugs Christina xx
