Flower and Swirls

Good morning. I've been pretty busy and not had much time to craft. I did manage to make a very simple card which I thought I would show, made mostly from my bits box.


Click on image to enlarge picture.


I stamped a swirls stamp in versamark onto  a scrap of pink pearlescent paper and embossed it with white powder and mounted it onto silver mirri. The flower is just a couple of punched flowers and two punched maple leaves in green vellum.  I mounted it onto pink pearlescent cardstock and then used liquid pearls.  Very simple indeed.

Well I hope you all have a good day.

Love from Christine xx

This is really beautiful for one of those 'quick' cards Christine. You would never guess that you found the bits in your 'bits' box. Just simple and classy!!!

Hugs to you Sue Pxxx (I have finally posted THE card!)
