Thank you

Happy Thursday to you all

Today I am sharing with you a little Thank you card recently made.

I started of making a 6 x 6 card blank in white pearl card 

I then cut a top mat just a little smaller in white cardstock and die cut where the sentiment was going to sit underneath.

I stamped the sentiment and then added the ribbons and using foam tape attached the top to the card base.

Then it was time to add all my die cuts , I just love all the white.

I added a few pearls and a little feather to finish

Thank you for looking

Happy Monday Everyone, those weekends sure do fly past.

I made a couple of cards yesterday very similar but I think they look so different

I made the pink one first - In the photo it looks more red but its actually bright pink!

I used a lovely 6 x 6 Embossing folder , mounted onto pink cardstock and popped a ribbon on and adhered to a white card base

I die cut a pink center and a plain white circle

Then the fun part I stamped the swirls ( I just adore this stamp ), Sentiment and tiny hearts

which I coloured to match

The flower petals are very easy and you can make them using a small circle die or punch, a couple of folds and there done

I dusted round with pickled rasberry distress ink 

Popped them on the card with 3 little gems.

I loved the effect so soon got an idea to make another, made exactly as above but using black cardstock. I used Brusho's on the petals this time , Scarlet, Lime Green with lemon  and Orange

and kept these in clusters of 3's.

Thank you for looking

Embossing and Die Cutting

Ohhh I had great fun yesterday 

Since getting a portrait cutting machine I have become lazy with my dies , so yesterday out came my big shot and with a quick flick over with the duster, found my box of dies and off I set.

I found some stunning dies not even opened but they were must have's at the time I'm sure

I found a lovely rolling rose die from Sizzix, I had to try that one out!

I cut two card bases from 12 x6 from white card stock to make 6x6 cards - (I wish on hindsight I did 7 x 7 there was so much more I wanted to add)

Card 1

I used a lovely peacock embossing folder , it is so very pretty .

I used a circle die on the center

Matted onto blue cardstck

I then die cut some swirls and flourishes, Flowers leafs and butterfly.

The butterfly I cut twice so I could give it a blue center.

I then die cut a smaller circle and stamped on the sentiment.

Card 2

Again using a pretty 6x6 embossing folder - I adore this one it gives you so much room for the center.

I cut the clock out on my portrait 

The swirls and flourishes and leafs were die cut

and there are those beautiful flowers  I mentioned earlier.

I finished of with some baby blue pearls.

After finishing this card I thought it might make a lovely wedding card , changing the time to the time of the wedding , and popping there names into the center

Thank you for looking
