Diary of an Edwardian Lady with Natures Notes

It's not my turn to  do samples for this 

4 day deal 

from 

Crafters Companion

starting next week 

Oh! the shows will be on Create and Craft

from Monday 20th May

just couldn't resist making a card to share with you all

 using my  petite petals  dies to make some spring flowers  as an embellishment

 i made 

primroses hare bells and violets  all coloured with my spectrum noir pens

  the catkins

 were made using Flower soft wire that i attached embroidery silk 

which i then split covered with gloss accents then dipped in micro beads 

 they do add that extra bit of movement   

when the sun catches them they sparkle  lol

i had so much fun making this card 

using the image from the shaped cards and a backing paper which i ran through with my embossing folder 

matted onto core-dination onto an 8x8" card blank of centura pearl card 

i wanted it to have that fresh spring feel so i added the lace over lay made with my new 

spell binder  heart felt creations corner die  

 i do hope you will pop over to the DT blogs to see what they have been making 

there are some real beauties 

thank you for popping by today
