Hi and welcome to cardsarus blog spot My name is Jenny Lawrence and I live in Kent. My dear and wonderful husband Tony passed away in March 2019 We had been married for 36 years. I also lost my first Husband to the big C when I was quite young. I have 3 children and 3 stepchildren. 12 Grandchildren and 5 Great Granddaughters and 3 Great Grandsons. I have been card making for about 25 years. I have made things all my life as my Mum and Grand Mother taught me lots of hobbies. I have made my own clothes, knitted garments, hand embroidered items of clothing, and crocheted items too. I love to bake my own cakes as well.

LILAC AND BLACK CARD

Good morning blog friends and visors.
I hope today finds you all fit and well, and managing to fit some
craft into your day.
THANK YOU for all your wonderful comments on my work.
I feel very honoured  that you choose to visit my blog.

This is my card for today.

click on the photo to enlarge the picture.


It's my fav size of 8x8.
I matted the card with black card and then lilac.
I did the round wreath with the Special Touch Doily Mask,
and cut away parts so you can see the black card.
I added some flowers made from the Rose Creation Die.
Then finally I cut out 2 Scolloped Edgeabilities and laced my
ribbon through them.
I added some black pearl pva glue dots around.
I was never very happy with this card, but what do you think.

Thank you again for your visit.
I hope you all have a fabulous Friday.
Lots of crafty love.   JENNY.

    Morning Jenny, Beautiful cards, today and yesterday, I love the colours and die-cuts are so beautiful, lovely ribbon weaving. Congrats on getting your grand dies, lovely hubby you have.
    I'm recovering from my trip to the NEC yesterday, it was great though, didn't get to see it all because of the train times restrictions, but still managed to spend lots ha ha.
    Lots of love from Patricia xx
