Amazing what you can do with left overs!  Good crafters use everything!  I made this 6x6in pale green card using Spellbinders dies.  The white background is the leftover from the Lace Doily Motifs that I used earlier in the year.!  I distressed it with bundled sage.  The topper was made with the inside of the Lace Doily in pale green, brown left over from labels 18 from a previous card, and a sentiment on a white Persian accent tag.  This was stamped in bundled sage.  I used a small embellishment from the Fleur de Lis Accents to complete the card.

A cream 6x6in card mde using Spellbinder dies.  The dies I used were the Labels 18 to make the sentiment topper.  I sued the biggest and created a frame with the next two sizes.  I also used the border from the Persian Accents, mounted onto a piece of brown card, Bitty Blossoms and the Floral Flourishes. A bronze bow finished it off. 

A dark brown 6x6in card mde using Spellbinder dies.  I used the Labels 21 to make the sentiment topper.  The brown card at the back on the topper was embossed using a Craft Concept folder and then distressed. The flower embellishment was done using the Spellbinder Floral Flourishes, Bitty Blossoms, Foilage and another leaf die, but I'm not sure of the make.  Bronze ribbon and bronze Candi finished it off.

Two Easter cards made using the Magenta Puzzle Tile stamps and Spellbinder Ironwork corners.  The stamps have been coloured in using Promarkers.

And another card of the same design but in colours from the Sugar and Spice range of Coredinations.  The same dies were used as in the last blog - namely Labels 21, Bitty Blossoms and Foilage.  I'm tempted to get another foilage set because then I won't be cutting the same die over and over again!  Think the raffia gives the card a more rustic look.

Mauve Card


Another card done with using my favourite design!  Mauve and pinky mauves greate a lovely colour way!  The dies used were the Spellbinder Labels 21, Bitty Blossoms and the Foilage ones.  I also used a Cuttlebug embossing folder on the grey card at the front! More to come this holiday....
