Three Little Cards

Hi everyone! Hope you're all enjoying a lovely weekend. I'm dreading this hurricane that's due here in the north tomorrow evening and Monday. It's already really windy.

I've made three little cards that will come in handy, and they could all be made from one A4 sheet, making them just under 4" (10cm) across. For my base card I printed one of the 'Blossom' designs from 'Autumn Flowers & Leaves' by Pink Petticoat. Two of the cards are topped with a folded doily from 'Parisian Motifs'

I cut some tiny flowers to echo the design of the paper on this card. My bow is made with gorgeous 25mm meadow green gingham from The Pretty Little Ribbon Shop.

For this card I rolled a rose added some gold stamen, a bow of narrow satin ribbon from stash, and sentiment from Anna Griffin stamp set.
For card number three, I just added a border cut with the Parisian Accents border die, then added some narrow deep peach ribbon and a bow.

Thank you for stopping by - Have a lovely weekend!

Sasha really beautiful> Cannot find the right words to say how beautiful. Simplistic but elegant, Just enough but not stark. Says so much of your ability, technique and HEART!!!

A set of three handmade jewels. It would be the perfect stationery gift for someone. I love the "botanical" and elegant look of this set. Wonderful use of these spellbinders dies and I love your choice of ribbon. Gorgeous!
