a card and a sorry

just a card I have made for Alicia to give a friend a lotv image and sentiment and love letters papers from ............opps don't know hang on......"first edition" I picked them up from somewhere on my travels lol

I have prisma pencil coloured it which I seem to be doing more and more but what I did do and wasn't a good idea was I stuck the gems on the hat and bag BEFORE I cut it out on the sizzix DOH the gems are now crazed (bit like me actually) but quite effective lol

I'm afraid I have not left any comments for anyone for days as blogger will not let me this has been driving me to distraction so Ive given up.

Ive been looking and think every ones work is beautiful so Ill just apologize again for being AWOL

Anything goes challenge "die cuts"

This fortnight at anything goes challenge its "die cuts" The team have excelled themselves this week and so did the entrants for distressing last time THANK YOU SO MUCH ONE AND ALL This time I did a page from Sara's wedding album that I'm doing for ME and I was so proud of her (sniff sniff an emotional moment) and this one is full of die cuts lol
The letters are Cosmo cricket bare chipboard that I covered with k & co Madelaine paper which is gorg, sooo vintage. I cut the edge with an around the page die cutting machine i.e. a punch, poetic licence here peeps please its not easy you know getting all these things in.
Next we have die cut Madelaine butterflies dressed up with a few pearls and lastly a flower die cut from a couple of paper artsy dies one has one large flower the other has the smaller ones.

Oh I forgot the trusty sizzix die cut shabby heart and leaves. Organza ribbon is knotted through the heart and also through the letters. A bit of lace edges the photo. Everything is from http://www.craftden.co.uk pop in and take a look great goodies to be had. lol
I hope you like this page I do and really that's what matters so to the person who was really quite nasty last week I'm still here and carrying on and not giving up!!! so that's that xx
