Happy Sunday everyone. I wish the sun was shining though instead of the rain rattling down the windows. It's so dark too, but not to worry at least I've had a good day crafting making not one but two Christening cards.
The first one is an 8" by 8" card in pink so obviously for a cute little girl.
I used my new corner die which is one of the dies in the Molly Moo collection by Ali at Aly's Inkyfingers. I saw the die at the Ross Papercraft Show last week, bought it - brought it home and promptly lost it in my tidying up session. Disaster! I was totally gutted as I loved the samples I saw at the show so much. So (extravagantly) I ordered another die which I'm thinking of putting on a chain so it doesn't disappear into the black hole!!
I don't want to loose it again as I want to put Aly's ideas into action as well as my own.
The central focal point is an ornate cross cut out on my Silhouette - Design ID #63533 by Elizabeth Mayne. Love this design as it has 3 layers to really make it stand out from the crowd.
Card number 2 is a smaller simpler version basically using all the snippets left from making the large card. This time I added more gems and a sentiment.
Materials...
- Pink, white and silver mirri card
- Silhouette cutting file - ornate cross
- Corner die by Molly Moo - available at Ali's Inky Fingers
- gemstones
- A4 dots embossing folder
Challenges ...
- The ABC Challenge - die cuts ( new scrumptious corner die)
- Pixie's Snippet Playground - use your snippets
Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Thank you for visiting my blog. I'd love to hear from you and will be popping around blog land visiting all my friends shortly.

Oh isn't it annoying when you lose something you just bought?
Still . . . you've made a lovely intricate card with the replacement! x
