That flower was recycled - it was a hessian label on a little bag that held flowers for one of my residents at work. I just cut it out.

ooooh, still excited about being up to date!!!!!!
Not only am I up to date but this is a card ready to be put aside for the recipient in December (and it's not for Chmisth.....chresm....nope, still can't say the word) and its also a thrift one using up scraps and freebies!

That is really pretty - I love the cut work in the middle. Is that a die or from robot/cameo ?
Fab card Lilli - just make sure you remember where you've set it aside. ;) Those flowers are very nice indeed - are they from a die?
Thank you. lol, I have made in advance before but forgotten and then made another! The flowers were some I'd cut on my robo a few years back but still have a lot left over! They seem to be a big hit with other crafters though, maybe I should cut some more!
ST the banner and central plaque are both Spellbinder dies, I thought the central one would be good for sentiments.
Nat, I always love your cards but the wedding card this week is completely amazing. It has to be your best card yet! For those of you who haven't checked out Nat's blog you have to see this card it is so beautiful. It certainly meets the prompt for extravagance!:lol:
My card for week 27. As blue is my favourite colour I really enjoyed making this card.
Now to start this weeks card.
Thought my card needed a bit more bling so have added some pearls and a gem.
ooooh that is pretty Virginia.
Nat, this weeks card is gorgeous!!!! thinking hat on for this one!
Virgina that is such a lovely card. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me at first.:lol: The bling really does set it off, great idea.
Well, I've just realised that the sympathy card I needed to make today has fitted in with last week's challenge, more or less. The blue isn't very pale, but the pearls are pale blue and white card - so two out of three. Actually I used a piece of grey card to protect the card in the post so does that count as the grey bit?:lol: Nice just to join in for a change.

Virginia, that is a lovely card and the extra bling is just perfect.
SusieA, that is also a fab card - what a lovely stamp !
I must think about this weeks card now - was out all day yesterday fixing a friends computer.
Thanks Susie and Lilli for those lovely comments - it was a proper crafting session Friday night to get that card made, don't think I stopped until 11 p.m. LOL

But I was pleased with how it turned out - one thing is for sure I could never make cards for money based on an hourly rate! LOL
Virginia - love those blue rosettes you've used, they really set off the postcard image so nicely.
Susie - lovely to see your cards again. :) Such a beautiful card too - and yes, since you included grey with the card it'll count, just this once! :P
That is a stunning Wedding card, Nat !
Here is mine for this week - birthday card for friend who is into all things oriental !
Threw as much as I could on this card! There are lots of layers and embellishments. Ran out of suitably themed items but if I find some more hidden in my stash I may stick a few more things on! This cards took quite a while to plan and make but loved every minute of it.
