I completed my card, BUT, I was dissapointed with it!!!  I could have embossed each piece of card & there are small smears of glue showing!!  Still, thought i'd upload it & continue to enter it in the challenge.



IMAGE : swap from a fellow blogger.

PAPER & CARD : old stash

RIBBON : purchased off of QVC, yonks ago - it came with loads of assorted types of ribbons.
(I coloured this ribbon with a promarker).

SPELLBINDERS NESTABILITIES : STANDARD CIRCLES (CUT IN HALF).

PROMARKERS : used to colour image.

SENTIMENT : bought at Alexander Palace and I have coloured it with a promarker.

RECYCLED ELEMENT : Red droplets on wire.
This came off a Christmas card that Pat (Patricia), a fellow blogger sent me.
(I like to keep the cards & this was the easiest part to dismantle).

  1. Yes i can see some glue but who cares! :))
    I like the way you've added the droplets and no i don't mind that you use them, i think they look better on your card and they really look like cherries! What i would have done is add some flowers but that's me, i like to cram as many things as i can on my cards.
    So in all your card is Fab!
    Hugs xx
