Wild Orchid Roses - Pink and Olive go so well together!

Okay so I thought I would post a card without loads of border punching cos I got quite addicted and my fellow bloggers am sure want to see something a bit different once in a while, so this time there's lots of lovely mulberry roses in different sizes in a close arrangement, on this card.

the pictures above and below show the leaves and flowers side on as best I could in the fading light as I was in a rush to photograph again (note to self - must be more organised LOL!!)

... and another view so you can see the quickutz flourish die shape which I glued on AFTER embossing the white card stock with a cuttlebug embossing folder...

Here is the finished card which I boxed because the flowers stick out a bit, even though I mounted them in the aperture (which aperture was made using foam pads)..

 

... just love the olive green against the pink and white, and the leaf die used for cutting the leaves is from Magnolia - a doo hickey one ...

Anniversary Cards with Penny Black and Lily of The Valley Stamps

Ok there are a few photos on this post, and the cards are all Pearl / 30th Wedding Anniversary cards,  following the same simple layout ( I seem to be either being doing very fussy or very simple cards lately!), using diffferent punches and different stamps and colour schemes.

Along with the theme of a Pearl Wedding Anniversary, I used Pearlescent card on all of them.

The photos arent great this time so sorry about that bloggers, but I was in a rush and didnt change the batteries in the camera, before snapping and giving the cards to the person who ordered them :(..

 

the Love Grows Stamp can be found at LOTV here.

the cuddly teddy stamp used on this one is Penny Black / Michael Woodward Creations Stamp is called 'When I'm With You' and the heart border corner punch is that familiar Martha Stewart one I like so much :)

above is one is another Penny Black / Michael Woodward Creations one called Lovin' Hugs and the punch I used on this one is a Fiskars Border Corner one

and another fiskars border corner punch to finish with another LOTV stamp also used on another card recently called Together Forever and can be purchased here.

thats two posts for today so making up for lost time and will be back with some more cards in the week again.
