I am so in love with this Tatttered lace Chantilly bow die from Fatcats.I couldnt get a good photo so have been in my potplants and lost some pearls alongthe way!

Birthday card









I had forgotten how much i  struggle with sticking vellum.
Yes I have vellum tape and vellum spray but am never happy with those so
I embossed then attached it to the card with the pearl strips.
Think I need to go back to bed and start my day again LOL.
Thanks for taking a peek

Another day and finally another play with dies from Fatcats,this time Marianne Anjaas heart die

Marianne Anja's Filigraan heart die

I am not a good photographer and no sun makes for a not so good photo
however this is it,
I cannot take credit for the design as I have seen it on many websites so whoever did it first I thank you!
Thanks for taking a peek

And new Cheery lynne dies

 I  made a card also

I used the new Cheery Lynne Horizon  fishtail banners, Cheery Lynne medium tea rose die and a memory box butterfly from Fatcats to complete this card
Thanks for taking a peek

So how is your Easter going? .I received some Happy mail with new tattered lace dies and Cheery Lynne to play with

 

Memories

This is a LO of my Mother and her sister my Aunt
back in the 1920,s
 
I used Tattered lace dies on this LO.
I am not altogether happy with this I think it was the image on the paper that I should have covered
I did some masking with lace also
Thanks for taking a peek

Archi-scraps challenge for April

Sorry Julene I almost forgot :-)

The idea with Archi-scraps is we are given a picture of an unusual building or similar
and put our own spin on it
This month the addition was triangles
Why don't you come join us
Below is my take on the challenge as the Gate on this Marianne die has triangles up the top

I used some transparency  for the gate front
and the mini roses are from my online friend AM
Thanks for taking a peek

A scrapbook page at last

The rose

I took these photos at my sisters place recently the end of our summer
so it could be called the last rose of summer
I have been trying all week to think of a way to use the tattered lace Chantilly bow on a scrapbook page
My paper ruching wasn't a big success but tis done now.
 My inspiration for the double bow goes to Ann Maria
