A quick post today, we are off to Bath this morning and have decided to take the bus as we are meeting friends for lunch and Tom can have a glass of wine! It's actually a very nice 'Country bus' ride that takes about 45 minutes, so it's nice for a change!
Today's card is the one I have sent to Alana, the little girl in the US who is not well at the moment and we were told about via linda's blog. We were asked if we would like to send cards to help cheer her up and I have already seen some of your lovely creations.
I just used a yellow check paper for the background and once coloured die cur the image using Romantic Rectangles. I then cut a Heart Circle die and positioned it at the side after shading it with Scattered Straw distress ink. I finished off with die cut flowers and bakers twine.
Thanks for stopping by! I will be 'missing' tomorrow - I am going on a workshop day with my friend Amy, to one of the big paper craft companies...but it's a two hour drive and we have to be there by 10am and it doesn't finish until 5pm! Sounds intense for a hot Sunday but should be fun and I'll tell you all about it on Monday!

ReplyDeleteHi Carole, it is a beautiful card and such a worthy cause. The die cut flowers really pop with their absoluely gorgeous colour. I have only been to Bath once, such a beautiful city. Hope you have a nice lunch and enjoy your crafty session tomorrow. Crafty hugs, Anne x
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful card going to Alana. It's lovely, bright and makes you smile! Enjoy your weekend!x
ReplyDeleteA lovely card for Alana Carole and the colour is so bright and cheerful. Very much admire your colouring of the image Alana will love it. Yes love Bath myself but haven't visited for a while. My late Mum used to live at Box which as I'm sure you know is not far from the city. Have a lovely lunch with your friends and tell Tom to enjoy that glass of wine :0). Love Christine H xx
ReplyDeleteI love those bright flowers Carole - this is a great image. I made her a card and forgot to take a pic before I posted it off to America - duh! I think I must have left my brain on the pillow that morning!!!
