Blooming Poppy.

Good morning friends, followers and callers by.

What awful weather we have had today, rain and more rain, really chilly last night!!


Ever had an idea for a card, you must try it..This is one of those cards, all day job yesturday..

Poppies Memory Box " Blooming Poppy".
I wanted to make these Poppies strong enough to stand away from the card (not attached)
I came up with the idea of using thick strong Acetate, was surprised the die cut this, just had to use scissors  on few bits to cut away,  left the butterfly though..

Acetate and white card, adhered together with glossy accents.

die only cuts as shown.

I cut a frame with spellbinders Grand Squares (discontinued) Foam tape around this..cut the base of poppies same size,  added foam tape to this also.
On the pink back panel I cut two slit to thread this poppy base to the back. adhered with red tape.

Paper I have inked up ready to to just cut the poppies from the die..

Red card attached to poppies and butterfly, with a bit of glitter for sparkle..LOL

Inkylicious "Oriental Awakening" stamp, ink Adirondack Cranberry.
Tiny butterflies from "Butterfly Wing Medley" M/B.
"Garland Greenery"  M/B.

Shaker card For A Third Birthday..

Good morning crafty friends, followers and callers by..

Hope you are all well, sending a hug if you need one, our weather sure has changed here in South Yorkshire, not bad in the sun, but sure cool out of it..

Shaker card for 3 year old birthday..

Thought I would do embellishments in three`s..
I made this fancy shaker part by cutting the "Crealies X-Tra. no 2" ..it creates 8 points. I cut 3 and glue them together, offsetting them, then curled paper points outwards.

To make the shaker part I used "We R Memory Keepers" Fuse Tool.

Great tool save you using foam tape.

filled shaker with beads..sequins.. micro beads and glitter..
 I framed this with Open studio M/B.. Pinpoint scalloped circles  and studio circle Layers.

Spellbinder Nestabilities Star dies..
