More C&C cards.

Happy happy Hump day guys.

No I haven't got the hump its just the hump of the week as it were haha.
Sooooooooooo Happy Wednesday my crafties.

So I am spoiling you with another twofer today one of them I only have the main image of so I will show this one first. I just love the colour I used which was from the Blossom pack of card stock I believe in Periwinkle blue.

Here it is.

Isn't it pretty. I made some felt flowers and added little blue pearls with cosmic shimmer glue to the centre.I love the Wedgwood type feel with cards and this is exactly what this  reminds me of. Can you see it guys?

Next one then.

 Slightly different Hey ,  as you no from a card I made in Kraft a week or so ago I just love white on Kraft card , its so fresh and always has the wow factor.
The stamp set here is The New Taylored Expressions Oops a Daisy stamps , ooo such good quality rubber too. I just stamped several on kraft with white embossing and used my foam mat and a ball tool for dimension on the petals, then the blue flower I stamped in Vintage Sepia and painted it with Cosmic shimmer water paints with a little Sakura water colour gel pens which I love, they are sooo vibrant.
The card at the back I took some Kraft and stamped happy birthday three times i white and embossed .
I nipped of the corners for a different look. Then at the top I embossed with a Couture creations folder called wild holly ( which looks nothing like holly and so you can use anytime.) As my card is wider than the folder I had to extend the pattern of course.
Once of of the die I My Snow flake Adirondack ink over the top of the embossing which looked lovely but was way to subtle so I took my white pen and simple traced over the apertures that would be on show, it didn't take long. I wrapped some stunning turquoise crinkle Creative expressions ribbon around the gap between the embossing and the stamped sentiments.
And of course my gorgeous chocolate box bow. I adore bows.

Here's a couple of close ups.

 A close up of the gorgeous flowers with dazzlers in the centres to match.

My stunning bow. lovvvves it.haha.

There we are then another two cards shown and soon I will be making like crazy for the show, I am so excited I think I have 2 separate hours that day so how cool is that.

I Thought I would take some time to let you know all the other ways to get in touch with me today

My Cards from C&C.

Hi my gorgeous crew of lovliness

hehe...

I so appreciate all your amazing comments and little mini chats we have , I love to come on and see a little message and I always have to answer its the least I can do.
I really want to start my own group too, Last year I did a demo in a lovely shop down in Essex and It was my first time with so many people but the day just flew, I never stopped for lunch or anything , I absolutely loved that day and that little shop.
I want to travel all over the country doing workshops if I can get that well known and get booked so ladies if you have shops near you and would like me to come please go and tell them about me, we will have a fab day together.

Anyway enough waffling you all say.

As the title suggests I have a few cards you saw on C&C fleetingly that I haven't featured as yet so I thought I'd do that today with a twofer and maybe the next day too then Thursday I will have a nice goodie for Creative expressions again too.
So here is the first

It was made using the Alphabet soup large Just Rite stamp which I held in my hand and stamped randomly on to blush card stock which I just adore.
I used the Extra confetti Couture creations embossing folder.
I also used the Vintage labels 6 die from Just rite here too.
The Becca feeken Vintage label die and some diamond sprinkles which is currently my favourite glitter and will feature on a lot of things as I simply am hooked.
Lastly the sentiment and the Little buttons all came form the Bundle of joy stamp set from Just rite too.
So here are some close ups for you.

 This little vintage embellishment on the bow I just love love love  and no shank on the back so they fit nice and flush, I used the pack of 6 in one day haha.
 I used my quickie glue pen in all the debossed areas in the embossing folder and used the glitter in there too. Scrumy.
 This is part of the small die in the Becca Feeken pack and I cut it in half and added it to each side of the sentiment panel, over the seem binding which I ruched and added onto some crochet ribbon.
Lastly was the pearls we all love too.

So that was the first card in beautiful pinks and now to the second one today.


 I just love white on white and I used the coconut white here so not bright like tippex but not off white or cream either.this card is a big girl , she is 8 and half by 6 and half so certainly not a tiny one. I also really enjoy the soft Gold card ( I must order some I'm down to last few You can tell I love it.) so that features on here too.
I used a Sue Wilson lattice heart A4 embossing folder.
I used The Bella rose leaf and swirls die by Heartfelt creations and The opulent ovals by spellbinders of course. I used copper embossing powder and the little rose from the What Define Us set also Just Rite.
So some close ups.

This was the first one I made for the show infact so I was very pleased with it and how it turned out.

So what do think of these two then ? very different from my inky vintage ones which I adore but there is no cards I don't love to make so Hope you love these too.

I thought the sentiment was short but lovely to just say , ' Count on me '. and You all can so thank you so much for being here with me, I know I say that a lot but I really do mean it so I like to tell you all your appreciated.

Have a great Tuesday and see you all then. 

Lots of Hugs

Kim
