Flowers for Papercraft Inspirations Magazine....


Here's a couple of floral cards I made for a commission for a  past issue of Papercraft Inspirations magazine. The theme was floral thank you cards, and each card has to look totally different. For this first one I used some cute fabric covered wooden shapes that I found in Hobbycraft.....


 and this next one was made with papers and stamps from Heartfelt Creations - the white seam binding ribbon from The Ribbon Girl was coloured with ProMarkers to match the card



I really must get around to updating my little gallery buttons at the top of the blog - and maybe add one for Scan N Cut cards as well. I am not very good at the admin type side of running a blog I must admit, I will put it on my ever growing TO DO list.........



When I was in Florida catching up with all my friends there, I saw my friend Carol's latest creations and I was blown away by how she has developed her style since I last saw her - she was a fledgling scrapbooker when I first met her, and decided she liked making cards much more than scrapbooking, it is so nice to see her develop as a crafter and I took a couple of photos of her lovely cards to show you 




Thanks for letting me share them Carol x

  12. Fabulous cards Enfys. I have never seen fabric covered wooden shapes before, they look like a fun embellishment to work with. Love the elegant look of the 2nd card with the burgandy/cream colors and the lovely multi-layered flowers.

    Your friend Carol does such beautiful work. I don't know how long she has been making cards, but she definitely has a very creative flair for making eye-appealing cards. I love them all.
