Here are the last two cards in my Prima Divine series. I have used the same sketch to create these two – I love this design and can’t wait to try it out some other papers.Lots of layers, some cut into oversized banner shapes, and every edge distressed and inked with Tea dye ink.I made the flowers with Spellbinders bitty blossom dies, and the flourish is memory box La Rue flourish.A tiny bit of lace finished this design which as I said previously I actually saw in a cardmaking magazine! Til tomorrow….

I found another Oval themed card….
While browsing through my files deciding what to post today, I found a couple more oval themed cards.Here they are! The papers are Miss Nelly by Kaisercraft – I have done a few cards with this paper recently because I wanted to use it up to make room for some new purchases. I forgot how pretty it is. anyway, The ovals are embossed using Stampin Up designer frames oval embossing folder and I fussy cut around them, Martha stewart butterfly punch, memory box la Rue flourish,assorted stampin up sentiment stamps, and flowers and ribbons to finish. Shopping tonight, so no crafting for me, til tomorrow….
Prima Tea thyme number 5
I can’t remember how many cards I have posted using this paper from prima -Tea Thyme, so we are calling this number 2 and I will check later ( just checked – this is number 5, so have changed things to correct)!I used the matching Prima flowers and hat pins that are also available with this range, and teamed it up with my Tim Holtz sizzix caged bird die.There is a memory box la Rue flourish there as well, and some kaisercraft pearls and seam binding. I made a matching box to put this one in, and it wouldn’t fit in an envelope! behind the cage is a tag pocket to slip a gift voucher in to. Today I am busy making male themed cards with a sea side theme as it’s that time of year here in Australia! Til tomorrow…
Prima tea Thyme number 3
Todays card uses Prima Tea Thyme patterned papers, and a couple of dies – memory box la rue flourish, and Sizzix Tim Holtz caged bird. The bird I used in the cage is from a packet of Prima resist canvas. these are wonderful things! You can colour them to match your project, and when you do a pattern appears on the canvas! Wonderful! I just added some seam binding and bling to finish.I completed my special orders today, and am now back to Christmas cards. It’s back to work tomorrow so probably won’t get too much achieved in the craft room until the end of the week – til tomorrow….

The cuttlebug was brought out to cut the Sizzix tim Holtz lampost, and memory box La Rue flourish.embellishments were Stampin Up pleated ribbon, lace,a doily and liquuid pearls.Tonight – a big push on christmas cards and tomorrow a bit of a tidy up. Til tomorrow…
Prima Tea Thyme card
Now for a change from Christmas cards I made this one using Prima Tea Thyme patterned paper and my cuttlebug.the die I used were – spellbinders labels 17, lace doily accents, and Memory box La Rue Flourish. The sentiment ( Love it) is from a stampin Up set called Apothecary Art, and the pleated satin ribbon is also stampin Up. I just added lace and perfect pearls to this one to finish it.Tonight I want to spend a bit of time in the craft room, doing some special orders, but first I have to find my work table which is under such a pile of stuff! Til tomorow…
Prima Zephyr number 4
I wasn’t paying attention but I think this is the last in my Prima Zephyr collection ( until I find the rest of the paper!), and on this card I teamed the paper with the journalling notecards and chipboard pieces.I also used my memory box La Rue flourish die, and stampin up cardstock, ribbon , sentiment stamp and blossom party die. Quick post tonight as it’s grocery shopping night – Til tomorrow….
Prima Zephyr number 2
Here is the second in my Prima Zephyr patterned paper series – not sure if there will be any more when I have finished showing the ones in this file as I have searched the cratf room ( Twice!) for this paper, and I can’t find it – time for a big spring clean I think!. Anyway – also used here are the matching chipboard pieces and the journalling notecards ( fantastic for this sized card) and I added a flower die cut from the same paper using the Stampin Up Party blossoms die, a La Rue Flourish die ( memory box) some Kaisercraft rhinestones, and a butterfly punched with my martha stewart punch. Tonight it’s all about Baby boy cards – I have none left in my boxes, so I will spend a lovely evening in the craft room playing with everything blue!
Charlottes dream…
Here is a card with a couple of firsts… The first card I made with Kaisercrafts new paper collection – Charlottes dream, and the first card i made with my new die made by memory box called La Rue Flourish. It is the most dainty die – I worried that it wouldn’t work well through my cuttlebug, but I have purchased a metal adapter plate to add to the cuttlebug sandwich, and it works like a dream! I also used my well used Sizzix tattered florals ( a most popular addition to my cards – Every card with one of these flowers on it sold at the market today), Stampin up Bird punch for the leaves, and some gorgeous lace , which I just wanted to keep… to finish it off. As I mentioned a busy day at the market, and beautiful weather, but so tired now, I will just be sitting in front of the T.V. tonight.. Til tomorrow….
