Hi Everybody,
I have been looking back at some of the cards that I have made over the years and there are many that are my favourite ones.
As we are coming to the end of another year I thought it an ideal opportunity to re visit some of them here.
They are all cards that I enjoyed making, and as you can see most of them are pink and floral as that is my style of card making.
Making this style gives me an immense amount of pleasure and many of these cards have been given away to family and friends either for the occasion shown or for them to give to someone else.
Some of them have been sent to my readers, both here in the UK and abroad, and some have gone to the Charity shops I support.
I love adding all the embellishments to them. The flowers, ribbons and pearls.
Some of the flowers are bought and Mulberry ones like those to the left, and others , like the ones here above are handmade by me.
But all add that certain grace to a design that I cannot resist.
I know that my style is not for everybody as to them it is too fussy.
But it is something I enjoy doing and will continue to do in the future.
I used to give away one of my cards each week on a Friday before I started to give away the magazines.
Many people who got them wrote to me to say that they had framed the card to keep it safe, and that was always a wonderful compliment to me and my cards.
And finally, here is one with lots of Mulberry flowers that is not pink !!
But it does feature the beautiful a rectangle die from the Perfect Panels & Lovely Layer Collection that was out a few years ago and which at present is no longer available.
I hope you enjoyed this little look back in time and there is of course a lot more to come in the future.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
