Mini Monday

It's time for Mini Monday again, this time I have created a couple of ATCs with my Prima My Sweet collection.

I used several scraps of patterned paper along with a fussy cut butterfly and flower to create this one.  I also cut a doily using an unbranded die and a fishtail flag, I inked the edges of everything, fussy cut a sentiment from the collection and added some small gems.

For the second one I used several scraps of paper again, this time I used a woodware punch to create the little borders and added two fishtail flags along with a fussy cut butterfly.  The edges have been inked again, I created a paper bow with a Die-namics die and added some more small gems.

Thank you for popping in today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave, they are all read and much appreciated.

My Sweet

I decided to have a play with some of my Prima papers for a change, I used the My Sweet collection to create this card.

I used four of the lovely papers and a topper, the banners were cut with my Die-namics Fishtail Flag Dies, I cut them once and then reversed the die to cut the other end as well.  I inked the edges of everything and added a flower that I also cut from the papers with a Fleurs Flower Forming Die.

A Fresh Start

This is another card created with the beautiful Prima Fruit Paradise collection.

The frame for the topper is a Hunkydory die and as before I have inked the edges of everything, the sentiment, label, butterfly and pear were fussy cut and the flowers were die cut with my Tattered Lace dies.  I have also decorated the inside and created a little pocket so that I could add a little biscuit and a tea bag along with a journal card to add a message.  This card will go to the nursing home for the staff to give one of the residents on their Birthday, there are several that have no family, so the staff always give them cards and gifts.

Squeeze the day

Have you seen the fabulous Fruit Paradise Collection from Prima.

It's a fabulous collection, lots of beautiful Cut-Aparts and gorgeous papers.  I fussy cut the butterflies, sentiment and label from one of the papers and die cut the flowers and doily from another.  I inked the edges of everything and also decorated the inside of my card.

Life is Peachy

I decided to have a play with some of my Prima Fruit Paradise papers today, this is a beautiful collection.

I used the A4 pad to create this card, I fussy cut several copies of the fruit so that I could layer them up using foam pads to create dimension, I cut the sentiment from one of the Journaling Notecards.

Thank you for visiting my blog today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave.
