Remembering To Thank You

A new Stamp set from PTI - Remember. I used the Cuttlebug to emboss the Swiss Dots onto the base card then layered the PTI Red card on top after adding the scalloped edge. Using white card stock I stamped the Poppies with Pure Poppy ink and added the green vines onto a seperate piece, cut ot the poppies and layered then on top of the vines I edged this card with red lines to simulate a stitched edge. I wrapped the top knotch ribbon around the card and tied into a knot.
I finished by cutting 2 circles with Nestabilities and stamping the sentiment onto the white one and added a ribbon between the layers.

All products used are from Papertrey Ink

Floral Punch Craft - Rhodadendrun

This one was very time consuming but I loved the end result.
It was made with the Sakura flower punch and the stamen is the Cosmos punch, the flowers were made up then using a half polystyrene ball I added the flowers one by one the trick to this is balancing the flowers as when adding one the previous one tends to drop off (great fun)
I scored the base card using the scor-pal on a diagonal and added the pearls and the ribbon to finish.

August Blog Hop - Cd Cases

This is my entry for the August Blog hop from Papertrey Ink I have to say it wasn't the easiest of challenges and I had such a hectic weekend but I wanted to partici[ate so here it is.
A simple calander I stamped the CD case with the Boxes , bags and tags by Papertrey ink with white stazon and made a little holder to adhere to the front of the case to hold a monthly calenders I googled for a 2009 mothly calendar and printed off which I mounted onto black card.
I punched 2 holes through the top of the cd case with a cropodile and slotted through some white ribbon and to finish added pearls to the center of the blossoms.

This was made exceptionally quick ( love it when that happens).

I added score lines to the front of the card and embossed a piece of card with the Cuttlebug Holly Branch A2 folder and carefully glused the embossed branch and added Glammer Dust I then added some red berries I layered this onto gold card stock and added a tie bow ribbon to the top of the card and vioala I was done.

In the Pink with Floral Punch Craft

As I said Yesterday, I fell in love with making the Peony Rose.
This time I used the Stylised Flowers A2 Cuttlebug folder to emboss the base card I punched out a half flower shape at the top of the card at both sides and tied a ribbon around it to finish.

Floral Punch Craft - Peony

I've fell in love with this flower, it was made by using an apple punch to create the petals then some pinching and shaping before putting them together, the leaves are made with the grape leaf punch and scoring the veins.


I embossed the base card using the Oval Nestabilities and then cut some in contrasting colours to mat and layer, using the swiss dots A2 folder by Cuttlebug I embossed the bottom of the card then stamped a sentiment by Papertrey Ink and finished by tying a matching ribbon and adding a bow

A closer look at the Peony
