Pink and Blue Forget-me-Not

Hello Everyone

I hope you are well and having a good weekend. For me, I will be spending time with my lovely daughters as my son and hubby are out playing cricket both today and tomorrow. The forecast is quite good too which is a bonus!

 Yesterday I decided to have a little break from making Design Team cards because I wanted to make a card to send to a special person who is going through a difficult time at the moment.

This gave me a good reason to colour another gorgeous image from Janey’s Digi Designs as you probably know by now how much I love making floral cards.

I chose the delicate Forget-Me-Not which seemed quite appropriate for the occasion. I hadn't realised that these tiny flowers also grow in shades of pink until I saw a photo of them on Janey's Digi designs blog. So, I decided on a pretty pink and blue colour scheme for a bit of a change.

Items Used:

Digi Stamp - Janey's Digi Designs Forget me Not coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers

Papers - Pink Petticoat Daisy Bouquet and Hydrangeas

Sentiment Stamp - Craftwork Cards

Butterfly punch (no makers name on it)

Organza ribbon from stash

Purple Wind Flower to say Thanks

Good Morning to you all my wonderful crafty friends

I hope you are well and having a good week so far.

 My earliest card making memories are as a young child making cards for friends and family to thank them for Birthday and Christmas presents. I think that is where my love of crafting began.

So, as it is my Birthday tomorrow (and maybe I will be lucky enough to get a couple of pressies !!) I decided to be really organised for a change and made some really simple cards ready to write out.

As you know, I love making floral cards so I chose the gorgeous the Wind Flower (or Wind Anemone) from Janey’s Digi Designs. I layered up the biggest flower and shaped the petals with an embossing tool.

Items Used:

Digi Stamp  - Wind Flower  Janey's Digi Design coloured with Promarkers

Nellie Snellen Multi Frame die Doily Flower

Memory Box - Lorelai Leaf

Memory Box - little thanks available @ MCH
