Beautiful Blue

Hi Everybody,

Just for a change I thought I would go for Blue and this is a very pretty shade.

I have layered it all up with the White Linen card from Papermill Direct   and there are several layers all  separated with foam  pads  to give the depth.

The back  has been embossed with the A4 folder called Basket Weave and I can't remember where it was from.

The blue filigree layer is from the new die set 5 x 7 Reflective Moments from Spellbinders.

The close up shows you a white embossed panel and this is one of the double sided  M-Bossabilities from Spellbinders called Infinity

I have added pearls from  Want2Scrap

The gingham ribbon is from  Mei Flower   and the buckle centre is from   The Hobby House

I have made several cards using this color scheme lately and over the next few days I will add them for you to see

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Green and White

Etsy Shop 

Hi Everybody,

I have made this card to a 7" square using the Grand Squares and then layered it with the Diamond Effects.

I have used small green pearls on the cross sections with a flourish alongside the ribbon.

The sentiment if from Crafters Companions Sentimentals set and I have heat embossed it in silver

The ribbon is from Mei Flower and is tied in a double bow and the pearl and Diamante centre is from The Hobby House

My flowers are a selection from Wild Orchid Crafts
and they have been sparkled with Glamour Dust.

The flourish embossing on the inside is from an 8" folder also from Crafters Companion

The card is much prettier in real life and is one I have added to my Etsy Shop

Cream and White

Hi Everybody,

This lovely cream and white card was one that I added to my Etsy Shop   and it sold straight away.

There is a permanent link to Etsy in the side bar should you want a peak !!

The front  of this card is embossed and layered with  Cream Centura Pearl  and I have added  Want2Scrap   pearls around the edges

The silver sentiment is cut from the Tattered Lace Sentiments die.

The large Diamante and pearl centre piece is from The Hobby House  

The trellis pattern at the bottom of the card is from Stamps by Chloe

The inside is lined and embossed with a Crafters Companion A4 folder and it is a deep pattern that goes perfectly with this card.

The flowers are a selection from   Wild Orchid Crafts   and just nine flowers have added such elegance to the look.

Just imagine how far the "Give Away" prize is going to go using just a selection at a time.

Craft Show "Goodies"

Hi Everybody,

Home again and this is my haul from the GNPE craft fair on Saturday.

I managed to get everything on my list and some of it was basic stuff like the White 300gsm  Card from Anna Marie Designs

I bought Double sided adhesive sheets and magnetic sheets to store my Spellbinders on.  

Some  "Wow" embossing powders from  Stamps by Chloe   as well as some of her stamps.

But tucked in the background there is one of the newest M-Bossabilities called Roman Romance and it is lovely.  I will point it out when I use it on a card. It is very deep and intricate.

The tartan ribbon was a buy I couldn't resist.

All the shiny  "Bling" bits at the front are from The Hobby House   and consist of some buckles and some Diamante circle with pearls in the middle ... all magpie collecting stuff that I love to add to my cards.

So I shall be playing with this new stuff and I will tell you which ones as they are added to a card.

More tomorrow ...
