Mixed Bag.......

Morning Ladies

I have been trying to get my samples on the blog for the last couple of days, but, for some reason I have been busy with other things. At last they are finally here..........

A mixed bag of cards which means I have still co ordinated the colours, but used different greeting. I usually concentrate on Birthday cards, this time I have made a Sympathy card of which I was asked to make......

Peach and beige are the colours I have used, flowers, and spots on the papers.
Spotted ribbon.

I have some new spotted papers that are the same colour of spots, as the paper itself. You can just catch a glimpse in this picture.

Pearl hearts and orange brads....

First sample:-

A Wedding card using a LOTV stamp.

2nd sample with a sneak peek!!!!!
Baby card using a Woodware stamp.

Third and final peek......

The Sympathy card, showing the peach spotted paper.

Classes are:-
Sat. 4th Feb  - Full
Sat. 11th Feb.  -Full
