Friday Freebie - Floral Kit

Hi Everybody,

Here we are just a few days before Christmas and I don't know where this year has gone.  And this weeks offering is a bumper gift that is very heavy. 

This will be my Christmas gift to one lucky person as this one is so special

There are two magazines in this pack and a really beautiful foiled paper pack that has everything in it.

You will be able to make some gorgeous cards with this pack that will see you through the year for lots of different occasions.

If you would like to have this pack then all you need to do is leave me a comment at the end of the post with your FULL NAME.

Be sure to come back and check if it is your name that is shown as I have no way to chase you up if you don't. Should the gift not be claimed then it will be offered again at a later date.

More tomorrow ...

Spikey Pink Flowers

 Hi Everybody,

These are the spikey pink flowers that I had in the box on Monday, and here I have now added them to a card. It is a 5x7 size and has layers in pink and blue.

The top pink layer has been run through the machine in the Perfect Roses embossing folder to add some more texture to the design.

The silver circle frames have been cut in two different sizes with the flowers, and a mixture of different coloured leaves, added randomly to the front. 

The circle dies are a new addition to the Card Making Magic range and they are an Alternate Stitched Nesting set and they will be with you in January.

The sentiment is from my stash but this card could be for any occasion you wishes. 

It will of course need a box to give it in as the depth is far too much for an envelope. But it is a pretty card that is sure to please someone in the future when it is given.

I am having fun creating these flowers and it is easy to sit in front of the TV in the evening and die cut them out. I can colour them and make them up whenever I am ready to add some more to my creations. 

More tomorrow ...
