Special release day for these fabulous lacy diamonds

I've covered these lacy diamonds and borders in crystal clear.
And created this twisted easel card.
The "Happy Mother's Day" from the thank you sentiments stamp set  
just fitted nicely in the centre of my diamond
And I loved how these pink tulips are surrounded
by all the filler flowers and leaves.
a bit of sparkle for Mum on Mothers day.

Thank you for popping by today.

Black Tulips are a symbol for farewell
and are often used to honour someone who has passed away.
I have used the Tulip Bouquet stamp and die sets
from HEARTFELT CREATIONS
to create this simple sympathy card.
I really enjoyed making the background using pixie powders.
The bottom layer on the card is taken from the beautiful Tulip time paper collection.
I used white embossing powder to create the flowers
and coloured them with kuretake watercolours.
The vase was easy to give dimension to and the flowers just slotted in.
Thank you for popping by today.

Tulip Time again. . . . .. 
A rustic garden gate and the bright colour from the tulips.
 from the HEARTFELT CREATIONS Tulip cart and fence stamp and die
It really does make me smile.
I also used the Elegant Pocket Accents die to make a garden border
and I love the droopy head on this tulip.
So I made an easel card.

Happy New Year
Welcome to my first post of 2019
I am still enjoying the Floral Fashionista

I made this 7.5" square card using the amazing papers in the paper collection
I made some vellum flowers using the classic petunia stamps and dies
And added some swirls of Ariana Lace
The Arrows and banner die set made a great label for the sentiment
from the Just for you sentiments stamp set.
I would love it if I went in at the waist like that!
Just love the Rich Razzleberry card and ink from Stampin Up!
mixed with the colours from this collection.

I hope you have enjoyed visiting my blog today
and would love it if you are a regular visitor through 2019.

For more fantastic inspiration from the amazing Design Team visit

Happy crafting.
