Watercolour Blooms

I have created another card with my Hunkydory Watercolour Garden collection, this time I have made a side stepper card, it's a while since I made one of these.

I have used one of the beautiful toppers, one of the printed papers, a sheet of the printed card stock and a sentiment tag - I cut the two border strips from another of the printed card stock sheets.  The floral embellishment is from a die cut sheet that is part of the collection, there are two sheets so I fussy cut some of the flowers from the second sheet so that I could layer them up.  I always find stepper cards difficult to photograph, that is probably why I don't make many!

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

Watercolour Garden

I decided to join the Hunkydory Diamond Club, as part of the club you receive a discount on all orders and a free Luxury Card Making collection called Watercolour Garden, this is a card that I have created with that collection.

I used one of the beautiful toppers, a sentiment, a sheet of patterned paper and a sheet of patterned cardstock along with some gold Mirri.  I used my Tattered Lace Fleurs Flower Forming dies to create tha flowers and fussy cut some little butterflies.

Disappearing Comments

I have noticed, on several of the blogs that I follow, that whilst my comments appear to publish initially, when I go back they have disappeared.

On my own blog some comments are ending up in my spam folder - it is completely random, one day a persons comment will appear as normal and the next that same persons comment will be in my spam folder, it has even happened when a person has left two comments one after the other, the first published as normal and the second appeared in my spam folder.

I have noticed comments disappear on the following blogs recently

I'm sorry if anyone that normally receives comments from me is no longer receiving them, I would recommend checking the Spam folder on your blog, if they are not there then blogger is just removing them.  I have left feedback for blogger on my blog and would suggest that anyone who thinks they are not recieving comments does the same, perhaps if they get enough feedback they will do something about it!

I will continue leaving comments as normal and hopefully things will be sorted out soon.

Thank you for visiting my blog today.

Lemon Twist

I loved this Simple Stories collection as soon as I saw it, I think it is the fabulous colours.  I've had the collection for a while and have just managed to create a card with it

The inspiration for this card came from the Simple Stories Blog, there is lots of super inspiration there.  I have used three of the beautiful papers from the collection along with the black striped papers which are from my stash.  All of the flowers and other bits and pieces are from the Ephemera and Bits and Pieces packs.

Family Birthday

It was my youngest son's Birthday at the weekend and this is the card that I created for him.

He loves his gaming and I based his card around the game that we gave him for his Birthday.  I used my Sue Wilson Pierced Square dies to cut the black frame and found the images on the internet.  I computer generated the sentiment and decorated the inside to match.

I'm still finding lots of comments in my Spam folder - it's really rather odd, one person left me two comments one straight after the other and one ended up in my Spam folder and the other one was awaiting moderation as normal, it definitely does not make sense!

Sir Vagabond Aviator

I am currently in the process of creating a folio using my Stamperia Sir Vagabond Aviator collection, it is another of the Facebook Live Classes that Clare Charvill runs, I haven't joined one for a while but I really liked this project.  I have lots of strips over paper left over and decided to make a quick card to use some of them up.

I inked the edges of some of the strips and used them to create the background, then I fussy cut the Statue of Liberty and the two labels and added them with some foam pads.  I used some more of the leftover strips to decorate the inside of my card.

Oriental Thank You

This is the final card that I have created with my Hunkydory Oriental Dreams Collection - another of my Facebook Marketplace bargains.

I have added some papers from the Crafter's Companion Downton Abbey collection, everything else is from the Oriental Dreams Collection.  I cut the flowers with my Heartfelt Creations Flowering Dogwood Die again and added some gold foliage and twine.
