LAVENDER BIRTHDAY CARD

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.

Well last week went super fast as usual.

Is it time speeding up, or is it me slowing down so much. 

I think it's me slowing down .

Today I have a card made with 3 challenges in mind.

This is a 8"x7" size card.

The background papers were a download from Cuddly Buddly Crafts, and I thought they were lavender plants,but on a closer inspection I think they maybe bluebells.

The birds and the small postcards were a free download from C&C.

I distressed all the papers and Lavender card with scissors, and added Tea Die DI to the papers.

On the flowers I used some snippets of white card inked with Milled Lavender DI, but it doesn't show much on the photo.

I used stickles on the flowers and leaves, but that doesn't show much either.

Thank you for your visit, and your precious time.

Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

FAYE ON THE CHRISTMAS TREE

Hi and another good morning to my wonderful talented followers
and visitors.
I hope you had a brilliant day yesterday, and managed to 
combine some craft into your day.
I heard on the grape vine that some of you had better weather.
The weather here was quite mild dry and some sunshine.
THANK YOU for all your wonderful comments.
I really do appreciate every one.
I went to a coffee morning yesterday in aid of the McMillan Nurses.
There were lots of yummy cakes tea and coffee.
I put on a stone just looking at them. lol.

My card today is one I have just finished.
I bought this image because the little girl on the tree was
called Faye and that is the name of my Great Granddaughter
so you can see why I had to buy the image.
Funnily enough the image is just like my little Faye.
I hope you like it.

Now inside view of the card.

I made this 8x8 card out of an A3 white card stock.
I matted it with blue card stock and some Christmas paper
inside.
The front I used white card with a Spellbinders Grand Labels
aperture cut out.
I then distressed it with Milled Lavender Distress Ink, and 
stamped snowflakes with same ink.
I added my coloured image done with Promarkers.
Then I added some Venetian Accents cut up to the edges of 
the aperture and corners.
I punched out some snowflakes in contrasting colours, and 
finished it off with a big lace bow.
I have been asked how I do my bows, well I use the 
Crafterscompanion Ultimate Pro purple case, and I follow
the instructions given by Sara on C and C when she 
demonstrates it.
Basically you get a length of ribbon bring it round the pegs
cross it over in the front take it back round the back of the 
pegs and do the same a third time.
This gives you a lovely big bow.
I hope that makes sense to you my description.
Thank you again for sparing the time to visit me and leave
your comments.
Have a wonderful crafty day everyone.
Lots of crafty love. JENNY.
