Magnolia Grove number 4

Hi I am back from my holiday, but I am glad to see that my blog managed to carry on without me! Today we are still carrying on with my Kaisercraft Magnolia Grove series – one left in this series, and then we move on – Todays card was made with the 12 x 12 papers in the collection and some bazill cardstock, and a vintage rose and ribbon. I die cut some flowers with my sizzix 3d flowers die and hand rolled them, and used my Dienamics Fancy Flourish die and spellbinders labels 14 die as well.The sentiment is stamped with a stamp from my Stampin Up perfectly penned set.Tonight I will be found in my craft room ( once I have found a home for all my new gooodies ) making a couple of cards for an order, then I really have to get organised for the big 3 day craft fair that I have a stall at this coming weekend – it’s all go here!…..Til tomorrow….

Still with kaisercraft Magnolia Grove papers, this time the 6″ pad,a flourish die cut from my memory box fauntleroy crest and another of my homemade crocheted doilies, prima stick pin lovely silk ribbon and a flower which has a story…. One day at the market the lady on the next stall had antique bits and pieces including a stool with a straw hat on it . someone bought the stool but didn’t want the straw hat – but it was covered in these roses so I offered to buy it and such a nice lady – she gave it to me! I am now the pround owner of 50 of these roses, so you will see them pop up now and again! Til tomorrow….

Kaisercraft Magnolia grove number 2… Again I have used the 12 x 12 papers, and the matching collectables. The sentiment is Stampin Up perfectly penned ( love that stamp) and in the top corner I have done a little arrangement with one of my hand crocheted doilies ( still learning – don’t look too closely) , ribbon, and prima flower and prima petals pin – these were new in my local craft shop the other day and I couldn’t resist them…. Til tomorrow….

Straight off I want to say that I found this paper a challenge – it is very pretty, but the muted colours are not what I usually choose, but learning is all about stretching yourself, so I will share my creations with you! I did make an initial 4 cards with this paper which sold before I could photo them, so some people do like this colourway. The paper is Kaisercraft Magnolia Grove, and I have also used the matching collectables, some kaisercraft pearls, lace, ribbon and websters pages clear rhine sparkler. The papers used on this one are all cut from 12 x 12 sheets. Til tomorrow….
