Friday Freebie 007

Friday Freebie 007

Hi Everybody,

This is a very pretty card in turquoise and white and it is decorated with flowers, ribbons and pearls.

The ribbon is layered over some white lace and the flowers are glittered from  Glitter Magic

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts  and the ribbon was some that I bought from TKMaxx.

The large pearls are from Want2Scrap  and they match the card perfectly.

The background pattern is the ever popular Quatrefoil   and it makes a really pretty backdrop to the circle.

So it is another one up for grabs and if you would like to win this one then all you have to do is leave me a comment.

Griff will draw a name  from the list later today and the winner will be announced in tomorrows blog post.

More tomorrow ...

Mystical Embrace ...

Hi Everybody,

How Spellbinders come up with these names for their dies is wonderful and they have some fabulous titles to them.

This beautiful swirly one is called Mystical Embrace and it is truly gorgeous.

It is one of the 5 x 7 card creators and despite all the intricacy of the pattern it cuts like a dream and just falls out of the die.

It is one of those dies that I fell in love with as soon as I saw it ... and it has not disappointed me.

Apart from some layered white  card I have stayed with  the die to make the rest of it.

The ribbon is a wide  pink one and I have tied it in a double  bow and added in a Diamante and pearl  centre into the bow

I have added in a beautiful hatpin to the knot and this is removable as a small gift.

The pearls around the edges  are from Want2Scrap   and add just that little extra to the card.

More tomorrow ...

Valiant Honor

Hi Everybody,

For this card I have used the new  Valiant Honor  set that arrived over the  weekend.

I have used  the long label  and cut it a dozen times to create the fan... and  added pearls from  Want2Scrap  along each of the pieces and teardrop pearls along the top.

The tag has  been stamped and heat  embossed  and added with foam  pads to raise it up.

I have cut the base in the hinged card style  from the Grand Large Labels

The ribbon and flowers have been colored to blend with the card.

The Dotty card  is from AnnaMarie Designs

Very simple card but good for girly ones and I will be playing more with these and the other new dies this week.

More tomorrow ...

Who owns the card ....

Hi Everybody,

As promised here is the name of the winner of last weeks Friday Freebie ... sorry for the delay but I have been gallivanting around the country.  I have left it until today as I didn't want to get the monthly prize mixed up with the free card.

So the new owner of the card is Lynda Brock  you need to email  me  ... christina@card-making-magic.com ...

with your postal address and I will get the card in the post to you immediately. 

 So while wandering in and out of the shops in Chester I just had to see what Primark had to offer in the "Bling" line

This is what I came up with and it is an amazing collection that cost me very little for the items I got.

They are all elasticated bracelets with lovely enameled patterns on the tops and they will look really good in the centre of a flower or bow.

And once they have been taken apart this is what I have.

As I use them on a project I will tell you it is a Primark bracelet and show you a close up of the item used.

But they are really pretty and they are metal and not plastic so they won't look cheap and nasty on my work.

And on my return home there are three new Spellbinders dies waiting on my door mat just calling for  me to play

So over the next few days I will add some cards and I will list the dies  so that you can see what they look  like.

More tomorrow ...
