Lacey Ribbons Set 1

Hi Everybody,

This pretty card in pale green and pink has been created with one of the Lacey Ribbons added multiple times along the bottom

I also alternated the colours to make the top one stand out more and I matched the shape of the top edge too.

I think it looks really fresh. 

The white ribbon wrapped around the layers has two flowers attached to the top and they are from the Flowers & Tags set and the Layered Florals stamp set

The flowers have been coloured with pencils and added to the front with foam pads

White pearls have been dotted about the card as a finishing touch and I am really happy with the look of this one.

More tomorrow ...

Create a Gift Envelope

Hi Everybody,

Here is a little envelope that is a far nicer way to give money than just handing it over.

The video will show you how I made this one in a blue and white colour scheme and then decorated it with Flowers, Ribbons and Pearls

It is very easy to do and the film will take you step by step through the process

The links are all at the bottom of the page so that you can see what I have used. Some of them are affiliate links which means I get a small payment for items that you buy at no extra cost to you.

Enjoy the video ... it's not long.

More tomorrow ...

Friday Freebie - Father Christmas

Hi Everybody,

This is a gift that has been offered before and the winner didn't check for their name and so it was never claimed

Poor Father Christmas is still looking for a new home and it could be you !!

If you would like him then all you  need to do is leave me a comment at the end of the post.

I am happy to send this prize anywhere that you live but you will need to leave me your FULL NAME to be in with the chance of winning

I have no video for this one,  as this was released the week that Griff died and so never got done.

More tomorrow ...

Lacey Ribbon Set 1 & Water Coloured Flowers

Hi Everybody,

Here is another way to make a really pretty box that is just big enough to hold tealights or candles. Maybe a beautiful pen or even some .... chocolates !!!

It is very easy to do and not really a lot of measuring and it can be as decorated as you like for your recipient

I have used items from the Card Making Magic collections and this shows you that they can all work together nicely.

Here is the video and I hope you enjoy it and will give this little box a try.

More tomorrow ...
