Arianna in Green






Good morning all I hope you are all well and going to have a lovely weekend.
What are you all up to this morning.
I've got to do some food shopping and the I must get
on with my DT work.

I would just like to apologise to you if I didn't comment 
on some of your blogs as Google wouldn't let me.
I hope it will let me this morning. On my last two blogs the comments
that you have been leaving me have disappeared so I don't
know what's going on with Google.

Todays card is a bit different for me as I don't usually use
dark colour's but I were quiet pleased with the dark green with
gold on it.
For this card I have used the Heartfelt Creations Arianna stamp
and die set for the flowers.
And the mats are by using the Intricate Oval Frame die from Sweet Dixie
 in white card.  
I cut the two largest dies in the set.
I placed these in to the centre of my A5 Card.

I cut and embossed the Arianne die out of green card
 and I embossed them with gold embossing powder. I shaped
all the petals before I made them up.

I added these down the side of my frame I then cut some foliage out
of white and green card. and I added these to the flowers.
I then cut my sentiment out with a sweet dixie die from
the same green card which I
added to the centre of the frame.

And to finish with a added some pearls to the centre of all
the flower's.

That's all for today and I hope to see you tomorrow.

Enchanted Mum







Good morning all how are you all this morning.
Have you all had a good weekend and ready for the week ahead.
I think I'm going to spend a little time in my craft room
today and give it a bit of a clean as the floor  is a bit of a mess.
And then by the end of the week it will be as bad.

For todays card I have used the Heartfelt creations Enchanted Mum
collection and the papers are from the same collection.

I started by cutting my paper for the background and the I cut
a topper which I mounted on the a lime coloured mirri card
I added this just off centre to the right side.

Then I cut the happy birthday out of the same mirri card.
I added this to the centre of my topper.

Next I stamped and embossed the Enchanted Mum stamp and I
cut it out with the matching die.
I curled all the ends and shaped the petals but I think I
still need a lot of practice it's not right just yet I will have
to watch the video by Heartfelt creations on how to made the flowers.

I added my flower to the bottom corner I next  I cut the
sweet dixies swirly leaf die twice out of mirri card and I
added them to the flower.

To finish off I added the dragonflies that where cut out at the
same time as the mum.

a butterfly to the edge of one of the flowers.
