FLORAL CARD


Hi and welcome to all my craft loving friends, and visitors.
Well haven't we had some really hot days, and nights these last few days.
I do hope you are all coping okay with it.
I am very lucky as I have a ceiling fan in my craft room, but it's still very hot.

I looked after my grandchildren on Monday, and caught the sun while sitting in the park while my granddaughter played on the equipment.
Silly me there was a lovely breeze, and I forgot that it can cause you to burn more easily.
I have freckled skin which is prone to burning easily, and at my age I should have known better.

Today I have a card I made yesterday for the Allsorts Challenge.



I am back to my fave size of card a 8"x8". 
The paper was a free download from the C&C club website, and isn't it very pretty so I just had to use it.
I decoupaged the Hydrangea in the middle, and added some stickles to the center of the flowers, as I didn't want to cover up that lovely paper.
The sentiment is a Creative Expression stamp.

Thank you for your visit, and time.
Lots of crafty love. JENNY.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

Hi Jenny . . . what a gorgeous card. I see you're back to the 8x8's! Have looked through your other recent posts and I must say your cards are simply stunning. I love the black one.

Very pretty card, Jenny. I like hydrangeas and those blooms on cards is the next best thing to real life blooms!

You are so lucky to get the 8x8 cards over there. They are not sold here. It is hard to find 6x6 so I cut my own when I can get paper heavy enough!

Jenny beautiful coloured flowers on this card.
I hope you aren't too sore after catching the sun. I'm the same, I only need about half an hour and then I'm red.

Enjoy the weekend, hugs Erika. x
