Today we start my Prrima Divine series – This paper is right up there with all time favourites, it has a distinct vintage flavour and lends itself well to shabby chic as well – my favourite styles! It distresses well and so I did a lot of that…..I bought the a4 pad in this collection, because its tailored made for cardmakers, the size means each sheet can cover 4 cards comfortably with no waste, and I also purchased a sheet of chipboard pieces – the tea cup on this card is one of them. I inked aroung all my edges, added a ribbon bow and flowers and stamped a sentiment with a stampin up stamp.

This id the last in my Graphic 45 secret garden series for now, and i had fun with this one! A couple of dies used – spellbinders nested tea cups for the vase, and Poppystamps madison window die. a punch for a bit of greenery in the vase, and 3 kaisercraft flowers to fill the vase. I backed the window with some acetate, and used secret garden papers for the little girls image and the wallpaper background. Once made I couldn’t decide what ocxcasion it would be best used for and nearly kept it in my private collection (!) but thought maybe it would be suitable as a Mothers day card – we will see, if I still have it after Mothers day I will add it to my growing collection of cards I like too much to sell. Til tomorrow….

As Mothers day is just a few days away now ( my list is on the fridge boys!) I thought I would post this one which I made using Melissa francis paper – Rose, and 2 Stampin up stamp sets – Element of style which I stamped with close to cocoa ink ( Stampin Up) to frame a border around my main image which was from the Established Elegance set. I used another stamp from that set to make the tag.The cardstock was Stampin Up Blushing Bride, and I added a lovely big bow with a Stampin Up Vintage brad and a strip of lace to give the whole card a vintage look.I have made a very similar card for my friends daughter who is turning 16 – I hope I didn’t send her this one – I am starting to have my doubts- Oh dear…..A big hello and welcome to all my new subscribers, til tomorrow…..
