Baby Frame

Hello Crafty people, 
hope you all had a lovely bank holiday weekend.

I made a picture frame for my daughter to take to a baby shower party.
We didn't know anything about the expected arrival only that it was a girl.

I left the centre of the frame so that the new parents can add a photo when the new born arrives.
The background is in dusky pink. and the die cuts are Pearlised card.
The flowers are orchid stamp on vellum and  embossed with white and pink embossing powder.
One of my little babies in the flowers.

Specially for you.



Morning crafty people.
Beautiful day, but a bit nippy in the wind.
Bit behind with things because of really sore eyes that I have to take a rest from looking at screens.
Which it's really hard to do with earthing being on phones, tablets computers.
Anyway sharing a card I made from one of Leonie Pujol heart dies.

Black and White Octagon shaped card

Hello crafty people.
    Today I'm sharing a black and white octagon shaped card.



I didn't have a die for this I actually worked it out, then cut the different layers 
separately, each one smaller that the last. After I had done it "lightbulb moment"
why didn't I just download the shape and adjust the different layers. 

The card measures  aprox 7x7 
Black and White card sock.
Embossed the last layer with a Sue Wilson embossing folder .
The ovals are also Sue Wilson.
Memory flourish die cut.
I drew the  flowers with an embossing pen, then embossed in white.

Fuchsia Card

Hi crafty people.
A card I made while trying out a Fuchsia flower.
I used 2 different punches for the flowers. One I coloured pink and the other
I coloured green for the leaves at the top.


The corner dies are really Die-sire fairy lights rectangle dies that I have cut in half and used for the corners. The leaves I have had for  a while and can't remember the make.
Finished off with little butterflies and tiny pearls.

Card stock 5x5 
Mat pink card 
Desire rectangle edging dies.
