Peach is Best.

Hello,

Today I'd like to share with you all another card I have made. This one uses papers purchased from Merly Impressions where I go to join in and crop. These papers are from the beautiful ooh-la-la-collection . Again we are using a 6x6 bright white card base.
I have added a distressed edged peach card first then to that I have added oui-oui using the darker side stitching around the edge with white thread. Then turning over the oui-oui  paper I have cut out 9 x 1 3/4 squares distressing all edges before adding to the card.
Then I took some natural floss! and added that to the front. I cut a narrow circle and added all my flowers and foliage to it and placed that down using glue gel for lift. The disc is cut from left overs of the papers and to that I added the 80. I dotted about peach pearls and we were finished.

This card was made for a lady who is in the WI and adores flowers. I have been told she loved it.

Thanks for stopping by today,

Perfect Day!

Hello,
Today I'd like to share with you all a card I made last week. The card is my favorite size at the moment 6x6 in bright white. I have used a selection of papers I have had in my stash for quite sometime. They were purchased at Merly Impressions   and they are from the secret-garden-collection which I'm afraid is almost all sold out (I did say I'd had it a while lol).

 I have placed down the blue xx paper, then taken one of the ready to use card front pieces they sometimes do on to a pink cardstock and removed the centre, this was added using foam pads. Then taking another paper in the rich red I cut a slightly smaller circle and added it in to the middle flat. Then I cut a scalloped circle and stitched around the edge and stamped in to it the Verve sentiment and added that on foam pads. I fussy cut a few flowers to add to the space and cut out the Perfect also by Verve in the blue bling card adding that with glue gel.
I took a few flowers from my stash along with some Verve Sprightly Sprigs and some glitter glue and we were done. Just popping my printed out 70 Today on a flag banner under the pink bloom.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Ding Dong!

Hello There,

Today begins a new challenge over at digichoosday . As always we are a ATG challenge with a super prize to be won. But today we as DT members have been asked to make Christmas but not a card.

So I decided to make a decoration for my home. I love to have things around the home hanging in unusual places just so Christmas gets everywhere.

I chose to use this stencil from Dutch Doobadoo's and I cut it out in Kraft card. Then using the fantastic winnie-winterland-big-kahuna-digital-craft-download-bundle I printed out 2 papers, a sentiment, several baubles and of course the adorable snowman carrying his own. To this I added a doily, wooden snowflake and some drops of glitter glue.
The kit has an almost vintage feel to it and this shows well in all the wonderful papers available to print,

I do hope you can come along and play with us this week, I'm looking forward to visiting your own blogs.

I'm joining in with the following challenges too

Fab Selfie.

Hello,

Today is the start of another challenge over at Digichoosday.blogspot . As always we are a anything goes challenge but as DT members we were asked to think about summer! I don't know about you but we have been having unusually high temperatures here in the U.K. and I think I'm ready for Autumn Lol.

So for my card today I have chosen to make a scene card using winnie-camera-selfie-download along with papers from winnie-starfish-sandcastles-papers-5  and the sentiment is from winnie-starfish-sandcastles-148-quotes-download   oh and I added a cool pair of tropical-palm-trees too.
To finish it off I added a pink flamingo (cause you have to have one!) a lovely bright sun, a "selfie" diecut.

I do hope you can come on over and join in the fun, always a prize to be won.

Thanks for stopping by today, I am sharing in the following challenges too

Just for You!

My Goodness where is this year going to?

I'd like to share with you all today my card for the new challenge over at lilpatchofcraftyfriends. We have an exclusive sponsor this time around who is lemonshortbread and they are offering the winner 3 images of their choice. We as design team members were given a choice of two images to use and I chose this pretty flower-wave-girl .

I took a 5x5 bright white card blank and stamped two different flowers and a couple of leaves. Then taking my Promarkers and pencils I coloured her in. I cut her out using my stitched die and matted her on to some bluey green paper. I stamped a simple sentiment which ment I could use the card for any occasion.

Please pop over and see what the rest of the team have made, then add your newest make to the link who knows you could win.
