Ruby Update

Hello Everyone,

Sorry I have not been around for a little while but my mum has been really busy showing you her new collection

And I have to tell you that I have not been well.

You know that I like to play in the woods with my friend Dougal.

Well I also like to chew sticks and one of them splintered and got stuck between my tooth and my gum.

My face was swollen and my mum took me to see Mr. Vet

He said it was very infected right down to the root and I had to have the tooth removed.

 Here I am feeling sorry for my self. But that was a week ago and now I am as right as rain. I was in pain with the wood but now I feel really well again and back to my old tricks.

And just to show you what my mum has been doing here is one of her lovely stepper cards.

She has done this one in gold with all those butterflies and she did this style of card in a video for you to see.

So more from my mum tomorrow and I will be back again soon.

Bye for now ...

Love Ruby xx

Jewel Flower Stepper Card & Matching Box

Hi Everybody,

This beautiful stepper card is made with the Complete Card 7 Box Die Set that is part of the "Christina Collection" available with Craft Stash.  I have used deep jewel colours to create the flowers and the it all fits into the matching box

The video will show you how I made this and it is really easy to do. It can be used for any occasion and of course you can alter the colours to any you like.

Jewel Flowers & Matching Box   is not a long video so just enough time to make a cuppa and relax as you watch the card being made.

I hope you will enjoy it and join me on the next one
