Hi Everybody,

This lovely card is created with lilac Centura pearl and white card and is one I have added to my Etsy Shop.

It really is very pretty with all the embossing which is created from the Ornate Butterflies folder from  Crafters Companion

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and they are a mixture of Roses, Carnation, Chrysanthemum and Aster.

They have been sparkled with fine glitter from Glitter Magic  and I have added in Diamante from Want2Scrap

But the touch of luxury is the ribbon and Diamante buckle along the bottom of the card that is my finishing piece.

The swirl ribbon is from Reasonable Ribbon and is part of their monthly ribbon club.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Lilac Dreams

Etsy Shop

Hi Everybody,

Here is another card for my Etsy Shop and this is another that is far prettier in real life.

I have used many layers and quite a few dies to get this look.

The ribbon is from Reasonable Ribbons and the pearls are as always from  Want2Scrap

The flowers are a mixture from Wild Orchid Crafts and they have been sparkled with Glamour Dust

 I also pushed in some of the twigs I had left over from the Wreath card that I made using them the other day.

I used the same embossing folder for the front and the inside and it is one of the A4 folders from Spellbinders ... Dainty Dots

The sentiment is from an A5 sheet of mixed ones from the Sentimentals Range by Crafters Companion.

I stamped it in an ink to match the card and then heat embossed it in clear powder.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Memories Card ...

Etsy Shop

Hi Everybody,

Yesterday I added the tutorial on how I made the "Keepsake" box and I am so honored to have had a comment from Marisa Job ...  the talented lady who designed the die that I had used.

Marisa makes the most wonderful cards and I love to visit her blog ...  Designs by Marisa   ... whenever I can.

Pop over there and take a look at the wonderful things she makes.

And she likes my idea of the box so much she is going to make one for her Grand daughter.

So for todays card I have used a really pretty shade of pink silk card and it is so smooth. I have used it to cut the layers and the flourish trim which is just under the ribbon.

On the front of the card I have used a large stamp and Versamark.

I have heat embossed it in a clear sparkly powder and it looks  lovely in real life.

Click the photo to enlarge the card and you can just make the effect out.


The inside is embossed with the Elegant Swirls folder from Crafters Companion

I have used the matching pearl "Bling" from Want2Scrap on the labels and also around the flowers.   The newest pearls from them are the tear drops in the corners and they come in two different sizes and they are lovely.

The ribbon that I have used is from Reasonable Ribbon   and my beautiful flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts ... and they have been sparkled with Glamour Dust ... I really like this card Mmm Mmm !!

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

White with a Red Splash ...

Hi Everybody,

This is another of my favorite dies from Spellbinders and this is the 5 x 7  Elegant Labels 4

It matches in very well with the smaller plain  Labels four and that is what the sentiment is stamped onto.

I have used a JustRite Stamp and you can mix and match the words to create your own sentiment with other stamps in the same script.

I have embossed one of the panels and the card is created as a Filigree Hinged Card   for a lovely lacy effect.

The ribbon has been wrapped around the top layers and it has a lovely metallic thread running through it.

 It is from  Reasonable Ribbons   and is  part of  the June selection  of their monthly ribbon club.

Very simple and yet very pretty lace card for any occasion.

More tomorrow...

Hugs xx
