New Style




Evening everyone...Hope everyone been making the most of the lovely weather today....

I was browsing through various blogs and came across a card design I wanted to try...I have been tending to stick to easel cards but thought I needed a change...

I was happy with the card as a first attempt but need to make several more to get a really hand on layout and placements...See what you think

bye all for now...

Copics


Good Afternoon everyone

I received my first order of copic pens today (prior to this had been using pro markers) I couldn't wait to use them. I found them so much better to work with and got straight to work with them in my next project......


I recently received this new Magnolia stamp....I just think they are so lovely, among my favourite stamps along with the hAnglar and sTanglar range......


Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.....Dragonflies from Magnolia Doohickey Die Range


Lace trimming and Bo Bunny Trinkets...The Bo Bunny Paper range is my favourite at the moment ( As you can probably tell from my recent cards!!)
