In The Pink

As some of you know I have had to have an op a few weeks ago, hence not much news on here.  I'm making good progress and almost back to normal.I have been crafting though so here's a sample of one of my cards I love these telescopic style cards they look quite small in the envelopes and then they extend to a lovely size. this one folds to 5" x5"
but extends to about 16" You can make them any size ideal for people without a die cut machine. I made one last year for Christmas. I've used Fabulous Florets and Sassy Salutations. With Always Artichoke and Pink Pirouette inks with second generation stamping to vary the leaf colouring. Hope your all enjoying the summer weather I can't remember not wearing a coat for so long! Will try and blog more often.

Old Papers

Good Morning,

Sorry I've been absent for a while. I've had an operation but (and a little scare) but all is on the mend now. even my mojo. so today I have a card or two to share although I've used some of my very favourite papers sadly now discontinued you could use any papers that go together well. I used 7cm squares of paper to make the carrier bags scored at 1 cm sides and bottom and two small circle punches to make the handles. I love the Happy birthday stamps just right for the younger people a bit sassy don't you think. They are called Sassy Salutations.

I'm waiting for my new stash to arrive I only ordered it Monday eve and its down for delivery today so can't wait Festive flurries stamps and dies two lots of papers and a Christmas tree. I've been making Christmas cards using hostess gift stamp sets so I have more cards to post using these.


 
Hope you like them!
