For Mother


Hello bloggists, thank you so much for visiting.
I made this card-in-a-box for my mother-in-law's birthday, which is in the summer - but I'm aware that, while Mothering Sunday has been and gone in the UK, Mother's Day is coming up in other parts of the world, so I'm sharing this now.

I co-ordinated the flowers with the colours in the Birthday Blooms DSP - they are so pretty (well, I think so!)  I'm not normally a pretty-pretty sort of crafter but I just can't resist using these colours, they look so good!

Here's how I made the card -

Hope you like it!

See you soon,

Crafty Hugs,

Keren

Pop Up bouquet card


Hello bloggists, how are you?  

I do like action cards.  I came across a number of tutorials for this pop-up bouquet cad, I realised it was just the thing to show off this stamp/die bundle.  I've had this set for some time now and never really made much use of it.  Open it up and inside - voila!!

It takes a little bit of time to make and it helps to be methodical in the process, but it's not too difficult.

Here's the tutorial - 


Here's the folding/gluing diagram -

Hope you enjoyed, and see you soon!

Crafty Hugs,

Butterfly easel card

Hello bloggists!  Well, that's Sale-A-Bration done and dusted for another year and what a great promotion it was.  I do hope you got lots of great stuff and are having lots of fun playing with your new goodies! Back to normal now, though (a bit like just after Christmas...)

I've been playing with Watercolour Wings and the companion die sets again.

It's not easy to see in the s picture, but this is a shaped easel card.  It's probably easier to see in the video, so here it is!  Hope you enjoy & see  you soon!
