Who put out the Fire

Hi
to all my blog friends, and THANK YOU for all your kind words of encouragement over this week.
Well I can hear all of you saying thank goodness it's the weekend. That is those of you that don't have to work.

Today my card is one I made last week.  It's my usual favourite size 8x8 card size. I used A3 black pearlised card stock cut into this size. Matted it with yellow A4 card stock. The stripped glitter card
is a bit left over from my Kanban Card bought from C and C last year. I have used a freebie image
from the internet, coloured in with Spectrum Noir pens. Distress ink in Wild Honey round the edges.
Glitter glue round the image, and Glossy Accents to make it look like water falling from the hose,
ans round his feet. The flowers and butterfly were Dovecraft's blossoms and butterflies. I used
Spellbinders Foliage Dies fir the leaves and the sprays, and some yellow roses from my stash, and

of course some black half back pearls, and stones.
Those of you with a keen eye will notice the difference in the 2nd picture as I took it and then decided
to put a few other bits to the front.
I  hope you like it. Have a wonderful crafty day everyone.

Happy Anniversary

  Hi everyone,

  may I say a big THANK YOU to every lovely person who has joined my blog, and everyone who 

has commented on my creations.

Today's card is one I made for my sisters Wedding Anniversary in July. Next year is her big 50th one.

I started with an 8x8 card made out of Crafters Companion A3 White Pearlised Card.

I matted and layered it with silver mirror card and mint pearlised paper with roses embossed on it.

I used some lovely lace again that I inherited from my mother. Flat back mint pearls from my stash.

Spellbinders lacy circles, Parisian Motif, Parisian Corners, Bitty Blossoms to make the roses out of 

the left over paper. This paper makes lovely roses, the dark green card to make the leaves, and white to make the leaf spray, form Spellbinders foliage dies. The ivy was from Hobby Craft. A large organza 

bow with button in the middle. The paerlised hearts were from eBay. This was a quickie so I had to

put a peel off for the sentiment, as I was in the middle of making my granddaughter's wedding cards.

Oh and I forgot Glossy Accents for the drops of water on the leaves and flowers.

I hope you like it.
