Want some cake...



Hello Saturday bloggers and another miserable day here in Sunny Scotland...lol!!  It feels like winter is back...maybe it never really went away though!!

So today I have this wee card for you...finished it off last night...now pinks isn't normally a colour I go for however that doesn't mean I don't like pink like some people (no names mentioned) so I thought it would be a wee change.

The papers have been my stash forever and are from Crate Paper Bliss Collection, the stamp is from LOTV which I coloured with copics, I added some stickles to the icing and the fairy wings although it's hard to see in the photo, the flower has been cut using my die-namics rolled daisy die (not my favourite die but thought it would be a change too), I also added a a ribbon bow fastened with a teeny button and charm...finished with some itsy bitsy pearls...can you see them??

Some gorjussness....



Hey folks....yes it's another from me today!!  I desperately wanted to try a card with real flowers, well not die cut ones, so I ordered me some and here they are...think I will stick to the dies cos I am not very good at flower arranging!!  I see so many beautiful cards with lovely little floraly things on them but I just can't seem to get them to sit or look right....

Anyway thought I would go with the monochrome look for this card...thought that would be easier to showcase the flowers.  The papers are MME - Oliver, layered onto bazzill card, the stamp is Ruby from Personal Impressions which I coloured with copics and glitzed up with stickles, I doodled the edges of the card and then added those flowers...

Anyway, I made this wee card last night.  I am loving my new sunflower die...and these papers from Fancy Pants Park Bench which I layered and distressed.  The stamp is Wee Blossom which I coloured with copics, I added some cheesecloth, pearls, the ribbon and button...this seems to be my style, the distressed layers, the blue and other colour combo and those fabby die cut flowers...this seems to be me and I hope you likey!!
