Three Times The Cuteness!

Good Afternoon

This card is my second entry into the challenge over at The CD Sunday Challenge - Ring A Roses:

I used my rather neglected Precious Petals cd by Joanna Sheen for this card.  The images are all from the one topper sheet which I printed onto Glossy Photo Paper, the middle picture I decoupaged.  I matted all the images onto silver mirror card.

The gorgeous backing paper is from the same cd-rom, printed onto pearlised paper to give a softer look.  Two of the opposite corners were die-cut using a Marianne's die and little pearls added.  I cut a Memory Box corner die from silver mirror card for one of the other corners.  Some lilac and cream roses were added to complete the card.

I would also like to enter my card in the Craft Your Passion Challenge - Punches and Die Cuts.

Thanks for visiting my blog today.

All Together Now

Good Morning

This is another card I've made from a rather neglected cd-rom.

This is a really lovely cd, Precious Petals from Joanna Sheen. This is a very cute image and the backing paper is also printed from the cd.

The border across the bottom of the card is made using a Spellbinder Fleur de Lis die, and the flowers are die-cut using some Nellie Snellen dies.
I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Papertake Weekly Pale, Pretty Pastels

Truly Scrumptious Anything Goes

Creations By Gill M Pink and Green with flowers (I know there's blue in my card too, but hopefully it's still ok for the challenge).

Thanks for visiting today.

I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles

Good Morning

Thank you for all your good wishes yesterday. Unfortunately my condition means I am in pain all the time, but sometimes the pain gets even worse so that it limits me even further. All I can do is wait for it to pass. Your messages mean a lot to me, thank you.

My card today is made using the precious petals cd-rom from Joanna Sheen. I think the backing paper is from a Debbi Moore cd, but I made the card a while ago so can't be sure lol.

The die-cuts are all Marianne dies and the gem embellishments across the bottom I thought looked like bubbles!

I am entering this card in the following challenge:

Crafts and Me Gems and Pearls

Thanks for visiting today. I hope you enjoy your Bank Holiday Monday.

Happy Birthday To You

Good morning.

I hope a good Mothering Sunday was had by all. I had a lovely day and was well and truly spoilt, some new crafty goodies amongst other things :o) and a handmade card from Emma. John and Emma went to watch City play in the afternoon, and they won 5 - 0, so big smiles all round.

Today is my younger sister's birthday. Happy Birthday Kathryn. So today I am sharing one of the cards that we sent her for her birthday.

This card is using Joanna Sheen's Precious Petals cd-rom.

I printed the image twice so I could add some dimension to the card. Some of the tulips are on 1mm foam and the others on 2mm foam. The frame is on 2mm foam. The flower border across the top was die cut using a Spellbinders die, and the wording was created using Dimension Fourth stamps.

Have a lovely day, I'm off to play with my new goodies!
