Red and Peach

I made these from left over bits of card and paper. I think the patterned paper was a free gift in one of the many craft magazines I'd bought and forgotten about.

Here's the same paper in purple shades.


I used the stalk and leaf shapes and just stuck the punched out flower shapes at the top of the "stalk" then stuck a button on. The swirls are punched from bits of card.


A square variation with the same paper and card.

Shrink Plastic

Yesterday I messed about with shrink plastic, I think I had more success shrinking using the oven rather than the heat gun; although I did the flower and greeting on this card with the heat gun.


Same Difference

These two cards are from the same stamp set.

Card Kaboodle Challenge

I've just discovered card making challenges so here goes with another one.This is the Kaboodle Challenge, join in if you enjoy card making it's great for new card making ideas too.

I'm Welsh, so this a Welsh theme, St David's Day is on 1st March. Daffodils are one of my favourite flowers. There's a Love spoon ( a Welsh tradition) and Celtic patterned peel offs to continue the Celtic theme. The daffodil is a Papermania stamp sold on behalf of Marie Curie Cancer Care.
