This one was super easy – I covered the whole card base with October Afternoon patterned paer, and then just decorated with other pieces that I had fussy cut from the same collection. The gingham strip down the right hand side is a scrap from the same range, and I added a button and flower for some texture. Most of the fussy cut images were stuck in place with mounted squares to add some height. a bit of bling to the fussy cut flowers in the corner, and done! It is a really hot day here today, but I will pop into the craft room for a short while to fulfill an order, but I won’t be hanging around in there – it’s definitely sit under the air conditioner and watch t.v. weather. Til tomorrow……

Graphic 45 A ladies diary
I bought the whole range of Graphic 45 A Ladies Diary paper a week or so ago because I absolutely love it, but sadly haven’t had much chance to do anything with it, but couldn’t resist putting together a few quick cards so over the next few days I will show you what I have done so far. For this card I used some of the paper to completely cover my card blank, and then fussy cut the rose image and stuck it on top. I used one of my homemade lace doilies, some seam binding , a hat pin and a handmade tag down in the left hand corner, and applied a bit of kindyglitz for a bit of sparkle! Weather here is still cold, and not conducive to crafting – all I want to do is sit beside the heater! Til tomorrow….
Lakehouse number 2
Here is number 2 in my Kaisercraft Lakehouse collection, this time using papers from the 6″ pad. I fussy cut around the floral piece in the pad ( love it) and backed it with the striped piece. All that was left to do was punch a couple of butterflies with my Martha Stewart butterfly punch, and add the greeting and some kindyglitz. I think this is my favourite card! Well thats the weekend over – a very short one for me this week as I only had today off, but looking forward to the end of this week when I have 4 days off – yay! Til tomorrow….
