Turquoise Gingham ...

Hi Everybody,

This is a  card using  the Grand Squares and I have layered up two shades of turquoise with white.

The pretty Gingham ribbon is from Mei Flower  and I have tied it into a double bow and added a glittery centre from Wild Orchid Crafts

The flowers are a mixture of WOC flowers but also the large one  that has been rolled from Spellbinders Spiral Blossom One

The sentiment is from Crafters Companion  and it has been stamped in turquoise and clear embossed.

It is a pretty card as always looks much better in real life.

The flowers are sparkled with Glitter Magic

I hope you will pop in tomorrow for the Friday Freebie and leave me your comments if you want to win

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Sweet Sixteen ...

Hi Everybody,

Because of all the cards that have been sold on Etsy I am now getting orders for specific designs.

This was requested especially for a daughters 16th birthday and the remit was pink and flowery.... and I am always happy to oblige with that kind of request.

I have the buyers permission to add it to a blog page and so here it is.

And once again I have to say it is much better in real life than the picture shows.

I have used flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts  and they are sparkled with Glitter Magic

Into them I have added a  pretty pink Hatpin  made from Diamante and glass beads... and it can be removed

I have double layered the ribbon with plain pink and the Gingham Ribbon is from Mei Flower  with a large pearl and Diamante centre.

The pearl flourishes along each side of the card are from  Want2Scrap  and they add the luxury touch

The inside has the pocket and tag for the signature or greeting to the recipient of the card.

More tomorrow ...

Lili of The Valley

Hi Everybody,

These are some cards I made way back in 2011 and long before I discovered Spectrum Noir so no color list for this one.

But the Wild Orchid Crafts  flowers can be see in great abundance even then... as is the few Spellbinders that I had back then

The round  sentiment and the images are all  from
  Lili of the Valley

Making this style of card was covered in a video tutorial that I did at that time.

I am adding the link here for you to the actual  website page   Making a Card ... Inside and Out

I have moved on  lot from this these days but I still do a dry run with the elements before I glue anything in place.

The cards are all 15 cm squares and I also did another tutorial to follow this on making the boxes to go with this sized card.

It all seems so long ago when I watch these tutorials, but they are as useful now as they ever have been.

More tomorrow ...

Butterfly Card

Hi Everybody,

The butterfly is one of the  beautiful  new images from Sheena Douglass. and the sentiment is also from the same range.

I have Spectrum Noir and the colors used are ...

PL2 LV2 LV3 and then over the top I have used the Ice Silks Acrylic Glaze

The body line has Mother of Pearl self adhesive pearl and two really tiny ones on the end of the antenna.

I have simply layered it up with purple and black card and used some lace patterned paper.  The Labels 30 is layered onto the purple and added with foam pads over the ribbon.

A pearl trail from  Want2Scrap  sits along the  bottom of the  butterfly and the  silver edged ribbon is from
 Mei Flower

A very simple card and because of time constraints today it  took next to no time to make. Hope fully I will have more time later.

More tomorrow ...
