Garden Card

Hi all

Back again today (I'm on a roll), well as the title suggests I have a garden themed card for you this morning. I made this to go into my male card box - this never seems to have many cards in - as  it was looking bare after I sent off most of the cards in the box to be sold or sent to people for birthdays etc.

Onto the card itself, the paper is from the Forever Friends collection (cannot find the paper pad at the moment so will put on the actual collection when found), and the embellishments are by papermania. These garden tools toppers have been really great to use and so versatile that I have used them a lot over the past few months, the rest will be given a break for a while so that some of my other embellishments can get an outing.

Happy crafting

Just a note....

Hi All

Well back again after another break - due to logging in problems fingers crossed thats its now sorted! So hope your all well and have been busy crafting while I've been gone.

Well onto todays creation, this is a card that I really loved making, partly because it was so simple and quick to do. I also like how the sentiment 'Just a note' is so versatile. The sentiment was from stash, the paper was by DCWV spring matstack, the flower is a poinsettia (sorry can't remember the company) and the blue ribbon is also from stash.


I had not intended to do the majority of the card in blue as its not the colour pallet that I normally choose , but it seemed to work so I decided to go with it, what do you think?

Off to do some blog hopping. Happy crafting.
