Happy Birthday in Lavish Poppies

Hi crafters and followers, hope you are all well today.

My post for today is using tonic dies and my flowerr is the beautiful tattered lace lavish blooms poppy die.

My Shopping List

8x8 cream card
black card
cream pearlescent card
Tattered lace lavish blooms poppy
Tonic happy birthday sentiment die set
black gems
flower made with melt pot

1.  I have used an 8x8 cream base card followed by a piece of black card and then a piece of cream pearlescent card which I have embossed.
2. I then die cut my main feature using the tonic happy birthday sentiment die set and attached that to my card followed by my flower which I made using the papers from a tattered lace magazine - they are just divine papers and superby quality.
3. I finished my card off with some black gems and a flower made using my melt pot.

In all honesty this card was such an easy card to make, those tonic birthday sentiments and brilliant for a main feature and have a lovely space in the middle for a flower, ideal for me as I love my flowers.

I have also purchased the christmas ones which you will be seeing into the future.

Thankyou for much for stopping by.  Take care and see you all soon.

Crafting at the Weekend Challenge 4

Good morning folks, hope you are all well and enjoying this gorgeous weather.  Mind you I have to admit to not liking this heat as much as I used too.  Probably got something to do with my own central heating system that works extremely well!

Today is the start of a brand new challenge over at Crafting at the Weekend.  Challenge No4 is 'anything goes' and our sponsors are: -

           Sue Wilson leaves
Embossilicious embossing folder
white ribbon and red ribbon

1. I printed my digi out onto super smooth card the day before in draft quality and coloured her in using copic markers listed above.
2. I then matted some red spotted patterned paper out of my crafty stash onto an 8x8 plain white card followed by a piece of centura pearl card which I embossed first placed my white ribbon and red ribbon around and then attached to my card.
3. I cut my image out leaving a small border around her and shaped her a little to give her some dimension.
4. I used a piece of red card die cut from a tonic die that I already had in my bit box and placed that onto my card with some silicone glue followed by positioning Lucy Loo again with silicone glue.
5.  I die cut my flowers out, shaped them and stuck them together with hot glue and then die cut my leaves out.  I then arranged the flower and leaves onto my card  and fixed themw ith silicone.  I then topped my flower off with some card candi in the centre.
6. I finished off with my sentiment which is a tonic die with a gem in the flower.

I have to say Lucy Loo was such a sweet image to colour in and quite easy to cut out.
