Welcome to my world of craftiness

Sweet…

Hello lovely people,

Well I am amazed I have had so many lovely comments I had on my previous post and thank you all.
I think with me and my cards I dont use any fancy techniques, or anything like that, I use just card stock, a cutting die, embossing folder, a few flowers, bits n bobs and I’m done but it works for me and people seem to like them. So on to todays card…
A5 card using the largest of the Spellbinders grand labels die as my base and layers, Spellbinders timeless rectangles, 5×7 matting basics A to cut the centre out, Spellbinders classic hearts, Spellbinders fancy lattice, Spellbinders swirls and flourishes, embossing folder is called ‘argyle’. Bakers twine, flowers from my stash.
