Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

The card I'm sharing with you today is another incarnation of the same design you saw back on November 1st.  They have both, alongside over 40 others in various colors, arrived safely with the recipients, and indeed I snagged the pic from one of them because I forgot to take any of the others... oops!

As this is my last post of the year... and with it the decade... I want to thank y'all for your love and support.  It truly is appreciated more than you know!  And I wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and every blessing for the new year!

Card: Unbranded white card, and Clarity's blue parchment
Groovi Plates: Josie's King Charles duo and 'Twas the Night #4
Tools and embellishments: Pergamano embossing, piercing, and cutting tools, Clarity brads, Nuvo shimmer pen, and rhinestones from my stash

Framed Roses

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

Way back in September, I promised you I'd show you another design demonstrating the versatility of Linda's Roses & Lace plate.  I don't break promises, so here it is...

Can you see what's different, apart from the frame?  If you're thinking one of the roses is missing from the top left, you'd be right!  I omitted it so the design fitted the space.  Once the roses were in place, I added the frame behind, in much the same way as you'd mask of a stamped design before adding background detail.  Then, finally added the sentiment

Card: Unbranded white and lilac, and Clarity's lilac parchment
Groovi Plates: Princess Charlotte Lace Corner Duet, Linda's Roses & Lace, Nested Scallop Squares, and Occasions Border
Tools and embellishments: Pergamano embossing, piercing, and cutting tools, Clarity brads, and rhinestones from my stash

Another Bird in Flight

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

The card I'm sharing with you today comprises something old (the bird plate), something new (the Princess Charlotte Lace Corner), and something blue, or more specifically 2 somethings blue (parchment and rhinestones).  If I'd borrowed something, it might have been more appropriate for a wedding, but nope, it was for a dear friend's birthday last month...

Card: Unbranded Kraft and black, and Clarity blue parchment
Groovi Plates: Princess Charlotte Lace Corner Duet, Large Garden Bird with Branch, and Occasions Border
Tools and embellishments: Pergamano embossing, piecing, and cutting tools, Arteza pencils (the bird is colored), Clarity brads, and rhinestones from my stash
