New Beginnings

Good evening peeps

Why is it that you can never get through Christmas and New Year without being ill.  I have managed to pick up a viral infection which is likely to sick around until after the new year.  I'm not ill very often, so when I am, it knocks me out.


Anyway, I have been able to sit quietly and make a quick clean and simple card today.  I have given it the theme of new beginnings in the colours of red, brown and white.


Materials used are:

White card stock
Brown Centura Pearl card stock
Red Centura Pearl card stock
Lattice embossing folder
Crafters Companion Edge'ables Butterfly Dreams die
Brown ribbon
Red Dazzler
Red gemstones


I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Red Roses

Evening all

I have never seen so many markdowns as I did at work today.  I think the company have really messed up this year and sent in far to much and it isn't even Christmas food that's being marked down, it's things like ready meals.  I think we had a few happy customers.


Anyway, I have made a Birthday card today.  The digital stamp is called Butterfly Rose Flower Girl from Ching-Chou Kuik and I have coloured it using Copics and ProMarkers.


Other materials used are:

White card stock
Red card stock
Crafters Companion Rose Vine embossing folder
Lattice embossing folder
Crafty Sentiments Design Medium Rolled Flowers die
Whimsy Stamps Birthday Sentimentables die set
White ribbon
White flower spray
Red Dazzler
Red gemstones
