For these two cards i used one of the 12 x 12 sheets from the Kaisercraft True romance collection to cover my card bases, and the tags are from a sheet from the same collection – this sheet was great it was full of tags!. On the top card i did some fussy cutting to decorate, and for the card above I just added a big bow and a resin flower which I made – Stampin Up have clay and moulds now, and my sister, mum and i spent an enjoyable Saturday afternoon trying out different ways to colour them. My favourite technique was to sponge with ink, colour with a versamark pen an( thats to make the next step stick) and brush on perfect pearl powders. I love the subtle vintage finish. Til tomorrow….

Celebrate Today with Bo Bunny Prairie Chic….
I have interrupted my latest series to post this card that I made this morning ( in between shopping and visiting Mum and dad) . It’s a special card because I am Celebrating – In the next few hours one of you will be my 100,000th visitor to my blog! This is amazing to me – My blog is a daily journal of my crafting travels, and sometimes my life travels too. That so many of you visit is great, and that so many of you come back is even better! My love and relaxation is card making, although I have taken a few short trips down the box making path, the off the page path , scrapbooking path,and the mixed media canvas art path ( a longer path that one as I love creating canvasses!) I always stay true to card making. looking back over my blog I have evolved and changed, and tried some new techniques – some worked, some didn’t, but I have always had fun and shown my successes and failures! Recent highlight was being chosen as a beautiful Blog in Papercraft Inspirations magazine, and ongoing highlights are my card classes that I teach, many of my ladies I class as true friends, and they travel the card making path with me, sharing ideas, and tips.So to all of you who visit, those that keep coming back and the 100 or so followers that have joined along the way – Thank You so much for letting me reach this milestone! Todays card was quickly made with Bo Bunny Prairie chic papers, a stampin up sentiment stamp, and some ribbon lace, and bling. I think it reflects my style ( for now!) perfectly! ( Can’t wait to make more with this gorgeous paper….Til tomorrow…..
