More Peaches ...

 Hi Everybody,

These cards are made using the same Peach card that yesterdays card was created with.

And thanks to Lisa from Mermaids Crafts   I am now learning how to add a picture of the products that I have used on each card at the bottom of the page.

I thought that would be the easiest way to show you the dies and it will also give you the name and number that you need should you wish to look for the same set.

So the finished cards are 6" x 8" and to the back I have added the "A" frame so that  they can be displayed.

The large bow is Organza with a large Dazzler in the centre.

The centre of the top card is Labels 20 and I have added the matching "Bling" from Want2Scrap

I really do like this colour and the finished cards are much prettier in real life..



More tomorrow and don't forget to pop back to see if you are the winner of the beautiful flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts

And if you still haven't added your name then   HERE   is the link for you ... and you have until tomorrow morning and then the winner is chosen by InLinkz

Peach and White...

Hi Everybody,

Now this card is right up my street ... it has everything I love in cardmaking ... flowers, ribbons and pearls ....

I love this card and in real life it is a stunner ... even if I do say so myself.

I have cut a white panel,  matted it with peach and then layered another white panel on top which has been embossed.

Then from the peach I have cut a 5 x 7 Matting Basics A panel and layered it with a white  5 x 7 Detailed Scallops.

They have been layered with foam tape for height

The sentiment  from JustRite stamps has been stamped and embossed  in silver on to the peach so that it sits over to the right of the panel  to leave space for the flowers.

The peach Organza ribbon was in my stash and I have added a peach coloured Dazzler to the knot... and small peach pearls along the right hand side.

The flowers, which are a mix of Roses, Tulips, Cherry Blossoms and Carnations.  They are peach and all from Wild Orchid Crafts and I have glittered the petals with Glamour Dust.

Teal and White ...

Hi Everybody,

Todays card features some more of the flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts ... and these have been made into one of my flower corsages.

These pretty corsages are for sale in My Shop  and they look so elegant when added to a card.

The base has been cut from Matting Basics sets A and B  and to use these dies to their full advantage I have added another short video to the website.

Spellbinders Matting Basics will explain the difference between what look like identical dies and how to make them work for you.

To create the filigree pattern behind I have used  Gold Elements One in each of the corners and added in some pearls along the edges.

I have cut the smallest Oval from Grand Decorative Ovals and layered it with a white embossed panel cut from Labels 30

On this panel are the flowers and some pearls from Want2Scrap

The Hatpins are also an item, in packs of five,  for sale in My Shop so please pop over and take a look.

If you still haven't added your name to the  list then  mozy on over to April "Give Away"  and do it now. You could win some gorgeous flowers and other goodies.

More tomorrow

Hugs xx

Flowerless Card ...

Hi Everybody,

I thought I would take a break from pink and flowers for todays card and so this one in lilac and a very pale green.

But the chance for you to win some beautiful blooms to add to your cards is still there so add your name to the list for some Wild Orchid Flowers

This card is using a white base card and then layered with the Enchanted Labels 28 in lilac.

Then I have added two panels from the Vintage Lace Motifs
and added  a Label 20 cut in pale green.

Along the centre of the label I have added in two of the border strips from the Vintage Lace Accents 

This matching Accent and Motif set is available from Save On Hobbies for a really competitive price.  There are other sets available too and they are all gorgeous.

My "Film Crew" and I made two videos yesterday. One was  using Spellbinders - Accents and Motifs 

I always like to buy the matching sets and there are some really pretty ones at Save on Hobbies

The next video will be Matting Basics and it will be available as soon as Griff has finished editing it for you.   And we have several more videos in the pipeline for the next few weeks.

The Fancy Bow is one of them and how to make a Hinged card is another .... so watch this space
