Still raiding the useful box! a few more quick notecards

I never seem to get to the end of the pile of leftovers, but these three stamped floral pieces have been calling me for a while.  They are from the Touches of Texture stampset and I think they pair nicely with the diamond quilted background. I am still missing Dapper Denim from the colour palette but that's ok, I have a little stash! I'm going to enter this in the Addicted to CAS challenge.  I think this fits with minimal embellishments and not too many layers (tricky for me because I love layers!)


I also had the gorgeous bird, a glimmer circle  and a some retired island Indigo cardstock and ribbon lying together, waiting for some attention.

And lastly there was a potplant needing some focus - luckily my DH looks after the real potplants around here! This one has been posted and hopefully brightened someone's day!


It's world card making day/week of celebrations .
Have you posted a friendly hello to anyone lately?
Go on - you'll make someone's day

I hope you have a creative week and remember, 
"don't just post online,
 post something pretty!"

cheers, Liz

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car
