With Love orange flowers

Hello crafters. Hope all is well.

Here's another CAS card I created. I find I'm rather liking this style of card - there could be more on the horizon!

The flowers are from a Craft Sensations stamp and die set. After stamping, I coloured them with Promarkers and then die cut them. The foliage is a single Sue Wilson die (Spring Foliage) which I cut up into the individual leaf clusters - very handy.

I had wanted to use a curved MFT border die, but it wasn't quite wide enough so I ended up using a couple of borders from Lisa Horton's Chevron Elements.

Breathe in the Autumn Air

Hello crafters. Hope all is well.

One of the best times of year for a long walk and breathing in the air I think.

I raided my Kanban kit for this card, just adding a tag die from Creative Dies Designs, a bow and a gem which I coloured with an alcohol pen to change from yellow gold to more orangey tones.

Hide and Seek in the garden

Hello crafters. Hope all is well.

I've often wondered what the critters in our gardens get up to. Most are probably busy now fattening up, stashing and storing for the coming winter months, but who knows, they may have time for a little fun like these mice!

I sometimes know what the cat's been up to - the evidence is usually fluttering about the house ( it was a sparrow last week and during the summer it's moths and dragonflies!).
