Fred's Flowers

Not made a card with Tracey's flowers for ages, so when I saw this new sheet on her blog I couldn't resist it ... it's stunning!!! At the moment she only has it in blue but with enough encouragement and feedback she may do it in more colours!!! Pleeeease Tracey!! lol, oh and the pinstripe background is also from Tracey!!
I printed it onto 180gsm glossy paper and assembled it with silicone so I could mould the flowers easily. Sentiment is computer generated and I finished the whole thing off with MS doily punch, ribbon, bow and white pearls.

Below is a close up the gorgeous flowers.

Have a nice evening and bye for now xx

Yellow Rosebud

This another die-cut flower from the imag-e-nation shop. Not made it for anyone in particular, but I'm sure it will come in handy for someone at some point.
The backing paper is from the Papermania "A Wonderful Christmas Time", and used my MS doily punch and SU oval punches again!!!
Hope you've all had a good weekend xxx

Navy and White

Used my new Stampin' Up Scalloped Oval punches and my new Martha Stewart border punch, the die cut flower is one I got from the imag-e-nation shop a couple of years ago and finished it off with ribbon and pearls as usual.

The Angel Gabriel and The Three Wise Men




Another two samples from the brand new Flippin' Christmas range from La Pashe.
Kept these very simple. Used blue glitter card and white peel offs for the Angel Gabriel, and for The Three Wise Men I found some beautiful textured paper I've had hiding in my stash for years and thought the colour was just perfect.
I'll have the fourth and final one to show you tomorrow so if you're passing please come and have a look.
Have a nice day xxx

"For me it has to be the ice cream van, we had one that came around nightly which sold sweets and cigarettes too, as the oldest I was responsible for looking out for "Fred" and his van, fond memories of my childhood days."

And another ....

I keep forgetting I've got dozens of Morehead sheets that I bought years ago when I first started cardmaking. Good thing about them is they never go out of fashion so I'll probably be using them for years to come.
Used my new MS punch again and finished it all of with ribbon, pearls and punched flowers.
