Items available from The Stamp Basket
Sentiment stamped in Rich Cocoa Memento ink
I've used 2 separate dies for the tulips - Dancing Tulips cuts the basic tulips and leaves, and Tulip Petals cuts the flower in 4 pieces, and then you just layer them up. I used my new Stampin' Up framelits dies (not the biggest one, this is the next size down) to cut the central shape, and drew around the die on kraft card to make the mat. The sentiment is also Stampin' Up, stamped in Rich Cocoa memento ink.
I'm entering my card for the following challenges:

- Totally Papercrafts - sketch
- Papertake Weekly - in the garden
- My Mum's Craft Shop - feeling blue/ get well soon
- Simon Says Stamp - clean & simple (please delete me if this isn't CAS enough!)
When I picked Dex up from nursery this afternoon, he said "I'm going to be really nice to Morgan today... and to Daddy".... "Oh, that's nice" I said "are you going to be nice to Mummy too?"... Dex thinks about it for a while... "No, I don't think so!" Cheeky little monkey!
Have a lovely evening :o)
These layered tulips are so much nicer than the flowers you've replaced with them, gorgeous colours and CAS design :0)

Oooh gorgeous Lisa! I've got the dancing tulips die, but didn't bother with the petals one. Now it's going on the list!
ReplyDeleteWonderful shape to your main frame as well and love the colour combo.
Your Dex sounds just like my Emily - she told me the other day that her and daddy are nearly perfect, when I asked if I was too the reply came, no - you're OK not perfect like us!!!! Good job I love her back, ain't it ;-)

Very elegant, Lisa. It has a lovely, tailored feel to it. Maybe Dex thinks he's already nice to you, mmmm, maybe it just shows how confident he is of you liking him WITHOUT him having to be nice to you - more like it I'm afraid :-) Donna ☺
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous card Lisa, love the papers and details. Hope Dex is being nice to Mummy today. lol!
