Christening Card...


This card was another of the samples I did for Joanna Sheen.  Very tricky to take a photo of because not only is is mirri but it's embossed mirri card!  This card was the first I did of the samples and a favourite as it has beautiful words inside and was stamped with the small heart from the set of stamps.   
Yet again my card fits the challenges at...
I do hope they don't regret the theme 'New' or are toooooooooooooo fed up with my barage of cards.  Just one more sample to show and then it will be Bah! Humbug! day.  Yeah - new challenge starts Friday!  If you haven't managed to get your recycled card done yet then please hurry as the closing time for the draw is 12.00 GMT tomorrow (Thursday).  
As to the next challenge should I give out clues -ooooooooh better not Max and Irene might throw me off the team!!
Have a good day everyone and may your heating never ever break down, unlike mine which went again yesterday and I have been so cold all night even under the duvet!

Could never get up with your samples Ann, keep em coming. Again, this is absolutely stunning, like I mentioned on Irene's blog, lovely clean and clear lines. Are those borders peel offs or have you cut them from your cricut?

It's no good hiding under 'Guess Who?' Ann - I knew straight away who it was! lol!! Like I said before, enter as many times as you like, I love them all so keep 'em coming.This one is an absolute stunner and I adore how you've coloured the image, the subtlety of it is so effective and the little touches of glitter are perfect.

Ooooooh Ann ... another beautiful card for us all to admire. Bet it's even more stunning when the light catches the embossing and creates beautiful shine.

Sorry your heating is on the blink again - hope your engineer hasn't 'fixed' it deliberately (if you know what I mean?).

Luv'n'Stuff

Well, what a surprise to be visiting you again Ann! lol!
Gorgeous card, no wonder Joanna chose you as part of her DT your cards are always stunning.
So sorry to hear you're back to no heating again, I do hope you get warm soon.
Thanks for joining in again with Crafty Ann's.

The borders are a cuttlebug border die that I have Beryl - it's my favourite I've used it loads. Hard to stick though but with those sheets of sticky it will be a doddle from now on.

Hello dear Ann, your card is very pretty. I love the image, love the Lo!!! Great work... Wish you a happy day!!! Big hugs Silke

lovely card Ann. Those borders stick very well if you run them through a xyron sticker maker. I had never used one before but they had them for free on c&c so got one and now love using it, especially for little bits and pieces.

Beautiful card Ann!! I love the embossed background. I also love how you use that border die, I think I have it but have never used it. Love the inspiration!!

Beryl said...

Always a pleasure to see your lovely cards Ann. This one is no exception. Really elegant and the image is lovely. Great use of the lattice die cuts.
Hope they've fixed the heating by now.
