SPRING !!

I made the image last week as I had to have an injection in my eye and new my sight would be blurred. I but the card together - looked at it this morning and decided it was rubbish so I stripped it down and started again.

Now it's taken to lunch time before I finished - I do wish I made quicker cards - I am such a slow crafter but here it is at last!!!

Less is More...........Yellow and Green !!!

Shame on me I missed last week Less is More challenge so I'm making up as I'm managing to be earlier this week!!!  The challenge this week is........

YELLOW and GREEN

I was sorting out my wooden stamps and I came across this one from Stamps Happen called 'Walking Dragon' - the front of the stamp had them coloured in Green and Yellow which inspired me to use the the challenge.  I coloured the image with Copics and added the

Simon Says Stamp and Sentiment set BE along with the Simon Says Small Folded Banner.

Stampabilities Stamp, House-Mouse Designs, Inc.  Stamp is called: "Sweet Sensations", #HMIR1094. Featuring Mudpie.

I had to rethink my design as this image is so huge, then the cat spilt water on it, and then published it and realised I had finish colouring the little Mousie so then I had to rephotograph it - I eventually published the card to find one of the pearl had jumped off one of the butterfly. Enough is enough so here it is!!!

I've think the card speaks for itself and has all the material etc. listed below!!

LHOSM............................Your Favourite Embellishment!!!

I've used one the new Magnolia - 2015 set - I think this one is going to be one of my favourites.  Our challenge this week is to use our favourite embellishment - I love them all but it I had used them all I would have cluttered up the card and left no room for the image. I finally decided to used the home made die cut flowers - they can be a little time consuming but I just love making them......I usually make too more and don't  know shen to stop!!!

Lifelong crafters Mother and Daughter, Mary and Andrea were tired of having to buy full rolls of ribbon and lace when they only needed one metre.  Because they love ribbons and all things pretty, they decided to open their own online shop in 2010 and make small quantities of beautiful products easily available to all crafters. Mary owns the shop and runs it on a day to day basis as well as keeping the website updated while Andrea looks after the social side,  The Ribbon Girl Blog and the Design Team. They specialise in supplying small (or large) quantities of ribbon, twine, gorgeous vintage style lace and seam binding ribbon, tiny pom-pom and ric-rac trim, all sorts of buttons, fancy pins, a multitude of charms, pearl and crystal flourishes, wool felt squares, seasonal and unusual embellishments, mulberry flowers, sticky tape and accessories to card makers, crafters, scrapbookers and cake decorators. They stock only the best quality products and only offer for sale goods that they would personally buy and use themselves
