Mother's Day #3

Good morning visitors.

I'm posting rather early for me today. I'm really suffering with back and leg pain right now (which is making things really awkward crafting-wise!) so whilst I wait for my painkillers to kick in I thought I would post my latest card. (It's about all I can do just now). 

In true 'Blue Peter' style, todays card is 'one I made earlier' ☺










The supplies used for todays card

* Make & create Sweet garden roses design pad 
* Spellbinders 5x7 matting basics A 
* Sue Wilson/Creative Expressions Gemini dies Pavo 
* Cheery Lynn tea rose medium 
* Sue Wilson / Creative Expressions stitched flags 
* Crafters companion Beatrix Potter sentiments stamp 
* Distress inks Worn lipstick/spun sugar/crushed olive
* Headpin/beads/ribbon and embelishment from my stash

Todays card is another Family card. This will be going to my Mother-in-law. I always try to fit my personal cards in first, buy usually post them last here, just so I know they won't be seen by the recipient before the event. 

I think the style of this card would suit quite a few occasions and I can see me using it again, possibly a Wedding card?

Well that's me done for today folks. I'm going to hobble around the house now, try to loosen things up enough to get some crafting done!

I hope you like my offering for today. Thank you for visiting and please stop by again soon x

    1. Thank you Debbie. I tend to use a nice quality, thick paper rather than card, as I've found it shapes much better. I can't give you any specifics as it was gifted to me unpackaged. I hope that's been a little help x
