Variations on a theme...

Sometimes it so easy to spend ages planning out a design it seems such a shame to do only one version so today I'm show casing two versions of a very similar card.  One made for my own mum's birthday and one done for an order.

 

Both use items that have been in my stash for an eternity.  The Storybook cartridge by Cricut, a flower and leaf punch from the archives and a brand new sentiment die by Britannia. Oh the butterfly dies are new too - eeeeeeeeeeek seem to have bought a lot of stash lately.  Love these butterflies by Joanna Sheene though - so delicate.  If anyone knows a good way of sticking the Britannia sentiment die cuts on projects please let me know as I am still experimenting.

Challenges...

• Use it Tuesday  anything goes - old stash Cricut Cartridge and punches
• Crafting from the heart  anything goes

 and probaby a thousand more challenges but as I am newly returned to blogging two is enough - so wish we could go back to the days when it was possible to enter every challenge each week.

Have a good day tomorrow everyone.

Fabulous Frou Frou...

Tiny photos from now folks, but at least they can be clicked to enlarge and in any case it's so long since I did any posts most of my followers probably fell asleep last year. 
I actually had two comments on my last post.  Thank you Abi for your very kind offer of help I may be heading your way soon if things don't work.

My first card on my return to blogging is one made a week or so ago using the Crafter's Companion CD Frou Frou and planned using Serif Craft Artist before printing out the bits needed to make up the card.

I think it's perfect for the challenge at CD Sunday where their theme is F is for ....Frou Frou !

and ...

Allsorts . Bring on the Bling

Have a good day all.

To blog or not to blog that is the question?!!!

Should I trawl though all my pictures making them small enough so I have space to carry on - maybe I should.  It would be nice to be in Blogland again - I seem to have lost touch with so many creative people.  Watch this space - I'm off to delete some posts and shrink some others!!
