My mom has been very poorly recently - hence the distinct lack of blogging. She has COPD and was in hospital all over the Christmas period and I've been backwards and forwards making sure she had everything.
She is now getting a little better and so I've had a bit of 'me time' back and hope to start up regular posts again.
Here's the first of a couple of posts coming soon using some LOTV images. I have so many but don't use them often enough. I've decided to start and make some cards for the box as I know we are going to have plenty of kids parties coming up soon!
The first one is using a stamp called 'Pretty bouquet'
The card was double sided printed centura pearl using Pink Petticoat papers, and then put through my latest gadget, my scan and cut (Christmas pressie from hubby!) to make the card blank.
Other Pink petticoat papers and Kraft card were used for the layers with distress ink edges. Flowers from my stash finished with ribbon and bakers twine, and paper butterflies also decorated with distress inks and pearls.
I hope you like her!
