Well this is an OOPS card.... I was busy working on my Die Cut Diva sample cards for this month... our sponsor is Altenew (which you will know is my favourite craft company) with our theme for the challenge - FLOWERS - right up my alley!
So I had this idea in mind to use the Mini Delight set - Plants and vases and using a design idea from a recent set of videos I watched for Penny Black... so off I went and made this card.
Doesn't it look great. Lots of ink blending, white embossing, stamping and die cutting the vases from Holly Mirri card.... yeah - feeling pleased as punch - even with messing up the white embossing of the sentiment and having to layer over the sentiment stamped in black! So about to take the photo when it struck me..... NO FLOWERS!!!! OMG how did I miss that!!! I did think to add some small die cut flowers - but when I hovered them over the card, it completely spoilt the look. Oh well back to the craft room and another card has been made (look out for it on the 25th!) Luckily I had time yesterday as I was not feeling great - 2 weeks of a cold and cough and had the day off so I could go to the doctors... viral infection but she gave me some antibiotics just to ensure it doesn't turn bacterial, So a quiet afternoon of crafting was the order of the day.
Feeling better today so went into the office. Now for a quiet weekend resting up and hopefully improve health wise.
