Winner

 Hi Everybody,

I have a lot to do this weekend in preparation for Mondays Craftalong and hospital on Thursday.

 And to make sure Ruby is taken care of while I am away. She is going to Vickie’s to stay with Dougal for a few days until I am home again. People are kindly volunteering to walk her for me while I am out of action and this morning my granddaughter is taking her out.

So as I was up early I decided to get the draw for yesterday’s offering done and the name today is

Janet Boyne 

Would you email me your postal address please to 

christina@card-making-magic.com

and the pack will be in the post to you just as soon as I can.

More tomorrow ...

Hearts Decorative Corners

 Hi everybody,

This dramatic card would be ideal for any male members in your family and you an take off or leave on the flowers to suit your recipient.

It doesn't show up in the video but there is a bright silver behind the panel that really adds some sparkle to the design.

The video will show you how I made it and it is just over 5inches in size. It could very easily be turned into an easel card  if you wanted.


And if you wanted a softer look then you can always swap out the colours.
My pages are simply to give you ideas and hopefully inspire you to try something a little different if you are new to card making

Rose Decorative Corner

Hi Everybody,

Todays card is again using the Rose Decorative Corner and I think it will become obvious that this is my favourite one in the new corners die sets.

I have used blue and white for this colour scheme with navy blue as my accent shade.

The sentiment is the Ultimate relations Die Set and there are so many in this set to cover ALL family members even into extended families.

I love die cutting because all the work is done with the dies and all I need to think about are best colours ... which and what type of flowers ... the layout for the card, then go ahead and make it for my recipient.

I know that there are people who don't like my style of card making. Some thinks its too fussy. But I love this way and the flowers make it extra special for me and the people that I make my cards for. They love them and that makes me happy.

If you are a clean and simple card maker then that is OK too and I do like that style also, as well as mixed media. But this is always my go to style and the one that I am most often asked for when asked to make a card for someone as a commision.

Hochanda Card

Hi Everybody,

This is one of the cards that I made for Hochanda last week and I must admit that I really do like this card.

I did the quilted look with the flowers and it looks much better in the hand than on a photograph.

I used the beautiful Rose Decorative Corner and I chose lilac and white for my colour scheme which is always a lovely combination.

The triangles have been embossed to add more interest to the background.

It was good to see it shown on the shows that Pauline demonstrated on and I will try and show you more as the week goes on.

More tomorrow...
