Sweet Pink Flowers

Hi Everybody,

This card is created in the Hinged Card Style   and I have used 5x7 Matting Basics A&B to give me the layers

The top layer has been embossed with the 8x8 Folder from Crafters Companion  called Elegance

I have stamped and embossed the sentiment into the channel on the folder before I emboss and then I am sure that it is in the correct space

The flowers are a mixture of Roses, Chrysanthemums, Tulips and Cherry Blossom from Wild Orchid Crafts   and I have sparkled them with Glitter Magic 

But the flower I have really fallen in love with from WOC and I am using it a lot is Gypsophila   This is such a pretty flower and so versatile.

I curve it around some of my sentiments or,  as here in this photo,  just draping it from the corsage,  but I love it ...look out for it in other floral displays I do you are sure to see it !!

I have added the flowers to Labels Thirty Three  using the #4 die and then cutting a Faux Nestie  around it ... and if you click the link the video will show you how to get this result for yourself

The card is lined and the butterflies are from my "Stash" with butterfly trails with Diamanté from Want2Scrap

(Any of the colored words are links to other pages ... all you need to do is click them and  a new window will open for you)

More tomorrow ...

Friday Freebie 062

Hi Everybody,

These Fridays are coming round very fast and I can't believe we are in June already.

So todays pretty little number is once again dressed in pink but there are no flowers on this one.

Just a really large bow that I have double tied with a large centrepiece as the focal point.  The satin ribbon is from Mei Flower

The sentiment is from Crafters Companion and is part of their  Sentimentals  Collection   and there are lots on one sheet

The smaller pink pearls are from Want2Scrap  and I have added them at all the cross sections to the card and around the sentiment

Now if this is a card that you would like to own then you know what to do .... Join the followers (If you aren't already)  and leave me a comment at the bottom of the page to let me know you have visited.

Then from those comments one name will be chosen at random and the winner announced in the morning.

It doesn't matter where you live and you don't need a blog of your own either ... so what are you waiting for ??? Add your name .... BUT please come back and check in the morning to see if your name is the winner.

You will have 48 hours to claim the card ... Good Luck !

Framed FF Card

Hi Everybody,

I wanted to share this photo,  that was sent to me,  with you as this is what last weeks Friday Freebie winner has done with her card.  Joan Simpson was so pleased with her card that she has box framed it and says she will keep it forever ... and gave me her permission to show you what she did

I think it looks lovely ... and not just because I made the card... but because of the way Joan has made it look really special.  I am honoured that you would think my designs are worth the effort and makes me even happier to be giving them away each week

Thank you Joan ... you made my day and I hope you will treasure the card for years to come 

More tomorrow ...

Woven Card

Hi Everybody,

This really pretty card is created using Creative Expressions-Weaving Dies from Sue Wilson. 

These are  unusual dies and the cards they make are different.

There are two dies in this collection that work together and I bought mine from Joanna Sheen.

I have kept my weaving to plain white and then added in the turquoise for effect.

The base and frame are made with  5x7 Matting Basics A&B from Spellbinders 

I have decorated the edges with pearls from Want2Scrap

The satin ribbon is from Mei Flower  and I have tied it in a double bow.

The flowers and the bows centrepiece are from Wild Orchid Crafts  and the display is added to the top of the card and sparkled with Glitter Magic

This is a card that is much better in real life and I am very pleased with the result.

Please Note:
