Dragonfly Cards... Judikins Dragonfly...

Hi,

We have a couple of dragonfly cards to show you today.  I have used the Judikins Dragonfly stamp which I have coloured with a selection of colours and added glitter and rhinestones to.



The first card has a green card base with a couple of coloured card layers as well as a layer of music patterned paper.  I have also used a honeycomb die threaded with a green ribbon (as a vine growing on a fence).


The second card featuring two dragonflies has a very similar layout to the first card.

I was searching for a dragonfly quote to add to the bottom of my post... I actually found many but have decided to share with you parts of a couple of different ones...

Live like a dragonfly,
Be colourful and just wing it!

Corset Cards... Prima #580070


Hello,

Today's cards feature a beautiful stamp from Prima Marketing #580070.  I have created the same card using three different colour schemes...

First black, 


                            

followed by red,


and lastly, purple.


Coloured card bases, followed by a patterned layer, then a matching cardstock layer, finished off with the stamped image on white card.  Rhinestones, ribbon flowers and bows and a brad complete the three cards.

Hope you are having a lovely day!

Pop Pop Poppy Cards

Hi

These cards have been created using the beautiful Pop Pop Poppy stamp from Penny Black.



The stamp was inked with Marvy brush markers and stamped on to white card. The edges were distressed, and the marker run round them. Ribbon was threaded through a rhinestone slide, tied into a bow and wrapped across the panel. This was then added to a white card base and rhinestones added to the corners.

Victorian Rose and olive markers were used for this card.



This card is made in the same way.
Colours used here are Wine and Olive.
A pearl slide was threaded with braid and pearls were used to finish the design.





These cards were so quick and easy to make for a very beautiful and effective card, and can be used for any occasion..

See you again soon
Till next time

Pencil Holders...

Hello,

Something different today - we have some pencil holders to share with you.  I purchased the glossy black pencil holders and have decorated them using a selection of leaves and flowers.


Underneath the flowers, I have added a white paper doily.


I have used a similar layout with the flowers on all three of the pencil holders and have also used the same colour theme.



These holders would make a beautiful addition to your office table! 


Hope you have a lovely day planned,
