Love

Hello crafters. Hope all is well.

Onto today's card......


I haven't made a shaker card in ages and as I was rummaging for some acetate to create the window, I  came across some spider's web rolls - long time no see!
Smaller particles like glitter would escape through the mesh, so I hunted for some sequins and found a pack from Dovecraft's Sweet Paris range. 


The colours in this pack dictated the colours for my card - red, gold and black.  I've used a TL die for the black mat, a cut n emboss folder ( free in Simply Cards & Papercraft magazine) and a die cut sentiment from First Edition for the back of the heart. I added some sequins to the flower centres. I've given the card a good few shakes and no sequins have escaped, so I  might be using this technique again!

Challenges:

Papercraft Business Ch. #26 Valentine's Day/Love
Die Cut Divas - hearts and flowers
Creative Craft Cottage Ch. #126 add a heart
Creatalicious Ch. #181 AG/embossing

Hello crafters.  Hope all is well, especially after the battering we've had in the UK.

Onto today's card....


I adore this kitty...happy and content in the land of nod!

Wheelbarrow of flowers


Hello crafters.  Hope all is well.

Sharing a quick card today featuring a frame I was gifted recently.
I've used an image from LOTV, cut to fit the inner shape.



I used an ombre effect paper from Crafter's Companion behind the frame and embellished with some leftover Heartfelt Creations flowers from one of last week's cards. I layered up the flowers with some punched Nellie Snellen ones and finished them with gem centres. The leaves were die cut with some of Sara's Signature dies. The sentiment was cut with Paper Boutique (I quite like the white on white) and the final touch was a dimension butterfly from PM.
