Shopping

This is the final card that I will be making with my Bellisima collection from Docrafts for a little while, I need to make a New Home card and gift for some friends.

This card uses two more of the Bellisima papers, a decoupage topper and a sentiment, the script paper is from Bazzill Basics.  As usual I inked the edges of everything and used foam pads to add dimension, the gems are from Hunkydory.

Thank you for visiting my blog today, please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

Bellisima

I am really making a concerted effort to use up some of my older stash - I really need to make some room in my Craft Room!

I have created this card with the Bellisima collection by Docrafts, I used one of the papers and a decoupage topper, This collection must be at least five years old!  I added some script papers from Bazzill and some pretty pastel paper from the First Edition The Promise paper pad - lots of very old stash.  I did some paper tearing, inked the edges of everything and added some die cut flowers - the sentiment is from the Bellisima collection, I cut it down a little because I wanted it smaller.

Pretty in Yellow

I have made this card for the Songbird Challenge - Build Me Up Buttercup - yellow must be one of the main colours on your card.  As soon as I saw this challenge I just knew the image that I wanted to use, the only problem was I didn't have it, so I had to buy the CD.

What do you think of the way I have been taking my photographs lately, I never seemed to be able to get them straight, so I have been taking them at a slight angle - you can't see if they are straight or not now!

The Image and the papers are all from Ooh La La Creations All Dressed Up CD, I wanted this CD when I first saw it on Create & Craft but managed to resist.  I eventually bought it directly from Ooh La La and it arrived quicker than it would have from Create & Craft.

The card stock is Bazzill Basics from Craftie-Charlie, the sentiment is from The Crafty Pad and the ribbon was in my stash.  I have inked the edges of the sentiment to match the image.

The inside of my card has been decorated to match the front leaving a blank rectangle with inked edges to write on.

This card is for my niece's daughter - does that make her my grand niece or great niece - I'm not quite sure, anyway I hope she likes it.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges.

Songbird Challenge 6 - Build Me A Buttercup
Lollipop Crafts Challenge 92 - Happy Birthday
Sketch N Stash Challenge 99 - Sketch (new stash CD, old stash ribbon and sentiment)

Thank you for calling today, they say it is going to get cold at the weekend - it doesn't feel particularly warm here at the moment, so I'd better find my woolly socks out!
