We off to a flying start quick off the mark I still thinking I did emboss a reddish Happy Birthday and found my barn door inkpad so work in progress
Lovely cards I like the vintage look Ellie and scrapmate love poppies too so will never get tired of poppy red cards
What a beautiful card Ellie, sell it! Someone would be very happy to buy that. Or give it to a male member of the family to send, it is a feminine card.
Another one here who loves poppies. Not only are they beautiful, it is what they stand for as well.
Meant to say, you are all getting off to a flying start. I have to do wedding cards next so red and pink definitely won't be getting a look in. If I can get these out of the way I'll have a go.
Thank you Susie and Denise.
I will see if one of the DGS want it, but they might think it's old fashioned.
They probably like the comical cards
Hope the wedding cards go well Susie. Is it for someone you know, or a commission?
Ellie
Morning all.
I'm so cross with myself. I made a really pretty wedding acceptance card earlier in the week..and guess what I forgot to do before I posted it..yep..I didn't photograph it! So annoying! It would have been perfect for this challenge..sigh!
I would have loved to have seen that. I have to send a 'regret' card but have bought one! I just can't take the time to make one, I need to get on with these wedding cards and they are not working out at present.
Well although I didn't get a photo I did get some nice feedback from the brides Mum. She said she thought it was very pretty and original! Chuffed!
The bride is my teamie here on UKS, Jolene. She is getting married in May and I'm so pleased to have been invited.
Hope the wedding cards turned out OK in the end Susie.
Thanks for the vote of confidence Ellie, but nothing is coming to mind so far. I'm just cutting and trying out different combinations of dies hoping something jumps out at me.
Wow, we just crossed Elaine. Lovely to get the good feedback, you could always ask bride/bride's mum to take photo for you, she's bound to understand. Then we get to see what you've been up to.
Beautiful cards ladies. I always love a poppy ! And that valentines one is gorgeous, send it to yourself Ellie !
Elaine, I'm sure Jolene would get a picture for you
I have several birthday cards and a new home card, plus this months batch of Christmas cards so need to get on with them
Got one of my poppy stamps out, and used the embossing folder I bought
this week. Then put an overlay on top.
Just noticed, when I put my glasses on, that the top two corners, haven't cut properly.
Hey ho you live and learn and perhaps I should have
Coloured the poppy stem in... Duh!!!!!
