Felt fiscally aware when needing to order yet more paper flowers so thought I'd try making some of my own! I quite like deciding the scale and botanical choices beyond roses and cherry blossom. However, it took a fair bit longer than just ordering them. :)
Got the parts for these cards from the qvc shop. The reviews were awful! I agree, if you want to use them as a stand alone kit they aren't much cop, you need to put in a bit more creativity and adapt! :) I just enjoyed a pre-scored card blank, which sounds a bit sad ;) Leaves punched using one of Su's punches that she might have forgotten I've got :)
New card, using the folded back flap layout. Have some premade blanks meant for invitations that can be refolded to get this shape. Liliofthevalley stamped image. Copic coloured.

My friend Toni very kindly bought me the kit for doing some needle felting for my birthday. First attempt has led to a slightly freaky green cat! :)
To my friend Robert. Thought it might be worth a quick blog to show something a bit different :)
Special day in the craft room today, new oil cloths for all the craft room tables! Bit of a clean and tidy session too.
I must have had something with a Sarah Kay image on as a child, a purse I think, cos I can ignore the cutesyness completely. Like this card, slightly different fold too.
Only made a few Easter cards this year and should have made more. It's a good excuse to say hello to friends :)
I used to get through tonnes of sequins when I first made cards but abandoned them later for less messy bling. Sometimes there is nothing better when you are aiming for girlie bling.
Incidentally, the sequins are lilac and the bling turquoise, which all proved too much for the camera.
....going to make anymore of these, for fear of becoming a mad nana! But this one snuck in :) ladybear! Not to be confused with ladyboy. ;)
