a pretty frame

hi all
 I am back from my jolly hols and i am well rested and rearing to craft....once the mountain of washing has been sorted !!!!
I made this pretty frame for trimcraft before i went on hols so here it is
I used a blank chipboard frame from here at http://www.cc-craft.co.uk/

.I have painted the entire frame  front and back with a TH paint dauber in shell pink and left it to dry,
I then covered the frame with  trimcraft first edition spring drop papers using pva glue and left it to dry
,I made some flowers using the spring drop papers and a TH tattered floral die and card candy
  I added them with some swirls and leaves to the left corner of the frame
,I added  two embossed marianne d  corners,some butterflies and a gorgeous ribbon from meiflower crafts
 The pic in the centre is  from the fizzy moon decoupage  hearts and flower pad.cute for valentines day i thought.

stampin up card

Hi all
 Here is a card i have made using all my lovely new stampin up products.....the stamp set was a my hostess gift and this is its first airing.I stamped the image in olive pigment ink and embossed it for some added texture.The green card ,white card and brad was sent to me by my stampin up demomstrator Rozzy as part of my make and take set.
I embossed the green card with  the divine swirls cuttlebug folder and used papers from the trimcraft first edition new leaf paper pad.I also used a stampin up edge punch .i love the clean and simple design of this card ...its a look i struggle with usually as i tend to over embellish!!!
This is my last post for  a while as i am off to tenerife in the morning for some Rand R so have a great week and
happy crafting
