Good Morning friends followers and visitors.
Sharing my card from  http://www.tuttidesignsblog.com/



Sadly this is my last Design team Card for Tutti Designs..  
Very hard decisions to make.
Due to family commitments I felt I could not carry on as you only have so many hours in a day.
Hopefully this will alter next year.  






You can use this  "Triple flower edge" edge die in corners or as I have done! across the center of the card, using the same pearl pink card I cut  a card piece to fill the front. Attached a ribbon around  this to hide the join, made a separate bow & attached with hot glue.    





















I have cut extra flowers in white! these where shaped then adhered to the matching flowers, finished with a pearl in the centers. 





Hope you like this card design, change the sentiment and can be used for many special occasions.

Thank you for stopping by today Pam x.

Christmas Wishes.


Good morning friends followers and visitors.

We are having a Blog Blitz over on  Poppystamps blog.  show casing the September New Mini Release. 


This is a simple card design using the new Poppy die "Tall Fluffy Snow Tree" .. This die cuts each layer separately, you can use as many layers as you like, I used them as they cut, but you could have smaller trees by leaving the large bottom cuts of your design.





These trees I cut in brown card, shaded through while still in the die with soft brown ink, removed and using a glue pen over the shaded area, next sprinkled fine glitter.
Foam sticky tape each cut to add dimension. I added white micro beads and Stickles  Xmas red glitter after the card was finished.




Hexagon shape cut with Poppystamps Stitched Hexagon Layer dies! Foam tape on reverse of white card adhered to a 6x6 card blank.
Red glitter card for the Bow & String die, adhered across the card, cut another bow for dimension.
Stamp sentiment in red ink.

Flower Heart. Beautiful Couple.


Good morning everyone.. 

Sharing my blog post from Tutti Designs Blog. 

I have used this Beautiful Floral Heart from the new Tutti Designs August Collection.




Finished card size 8" x 7"  Oyster pearl with soft Lilac colour.


















This is a technique I love doing with floral hearts!
Cut the design once in with card adhere to a plain heart if you have one.
Next cut the floral heart in soft lilac..
Matching up the pattern adhere to the white heart by Top & Bottom Center flowers only! so the heart stands up at the sides.
   
I have stamped in the center with lilac ink "To A beautiful Couple.



Used Sue Wilson Noble Pinpoint Rectangles for the card shape.

"Peacock Feathers"  "Gathered Twigs" "Black Soot"
Applied with a sponge dauber, glue and diamond sprinkles glitter.
Next Adhere together the frame and leaves only! these frilly flowers I applied hot glue behind the filled in base flower, you could use 3d foam if you prefer.
This I adhered to a white die cut oval frame.

Let It Snow.


Good morning friends, followers and visitors.

Lilac and white Christmas card for Poppystamps blog today.              http://poppystamps.typepad.com/poppystamps/



 I have used a mix of New Poppystamp dies with old.
I wanted to combine "Marais Snowflake" die  with "Snowflake Breeze" die  from the new release.. Marais to  look  like a shooting Snowflake, with trails of tiny snowflakes.. Hope you do not think I have lost the plot..lol



Stunning snowflake on it`s own.. can see a few possibilities with this Marais Snowflake die..mmm maybe next time.



I used Boddington Cottage as a landscape for the trail to shoot over!. 
background dots from my embossing folder.
Another idea to use Poppystamps Channel Dies.. as a frame.
I cut a frame using dies.. you need.. measurements:   3.1/4" for the channel dies four edges.. Start with outer edge card size.. 7.1/8" x 6.1/8".. inside  5.1/2" x 4.1/2" finished.
You can make a frame with a paper trimmer ..if you use a slider cutter like Fiskars.. OR a craft knife and ruler. 
I placed the channel die along the frame on four sides.. used my craft knife to trim away the corners left.
Few gems to finish.

So Boss! Emboss / Deboss Poppystamps Challenge.


Good morning friends, followers and visitors.. 

We have a new Challenge starting over on 

This months theme.
#24 So Boss!...Emboss / Deboss... 
1st September.



I decided to go with Emboss / Deboss.





















 Dot`s in the background!  Memory box Stencil "Texture Tiny Dots" I have used Versamark clear ink pad through the stencil, then using white embossing powder "Heat Embossed"
New Poppystamps.."Grand Pine Tree" has been sprinkled with Frantage.. "Shabby Green" Heat Embossed from underneath! this stops the powder from blowing of, but does melt!


I always cut & emboss my dies too.. 
Hope you like my snowy scene and scattering of snowflakes.
Would be lovely if you decide to play along..
