Sunday Lilacs

I used a plain white DL tent fold card and cut a fancy edge on some pale lavender card stock using the Rotatrim edgemaster to this I added some handmade paper torn along the edge and tied a thin white ribbon around it.
I stamped the white card using SU Blossoms Abound, inks used were Perfect Plum and Pale Plum by SU and Spring Moss by Papertrey Ink.
I stamped extra leaves, words and a Lilac and cut these out then added them using foam pads to give some dimension to the card, tied a ribbon bow to the wording and stuck it on top.
I finished with a little sparkle with some stickles.

Pergamano Pictures

I thought it would be nice to show you what got me back into craft after a break away from it when I was bringing up our children.
I never stopped the love of craft, but I had a family to rear and devoted my time to them, my youngest was a very demanding child who tended not to sleep, so, any spare time I had I would try to catch up on my sleep.
Then one day my Mam showed me a Pergamano card that someone had made for her and as quick as a flash I found myself saying "I could do that" it just blurted right out.
The next day my Mam went out and bought me some tools I found a picture in a magazine on childbirth which I loved and set to that night and so the picture below was born and once again I was back in the swing on things with crafting.


Another one but this time a Flapper Lady

Floral Card - Beautiful Blooms

I stamped directly onto the white card using the leaf stamp from PTI Beautiful blooms and outlined some of the leaves with Diamond Stickles. Using the Nestabilies Rectangles I cut out the scalloped and the classic rectangles for matting the main image. I then stamped the leaf from the same set but masked off the top leaves and then stamped the flower head, again I outlined the leaves and flower head with stickles glitter glue. I finished by wrapping the top notch twill ribbon around the top of the card and knotting.

Ingrediants -: Card stock.Ribbon, ink and Stamps from Papertrey Ink
