Oriental Easel Card


Hello everyone I made this card about 8 days ago for a competition on Fee j Designs website but didn't want to blog it here until the results were in and I got second place which means I got to choose any cd rom from her website woohoo.She gives you the papers to download too and this month there is a real beauty.
All of the elements are from the free downloads and the theme was to add gold so I added some gold twine,mirror card and a greeting peel off.For the vase I made some flowersoft ferns too for added embellishing.
I hope you like it.

Faith Is The Bird That Feels The Light


Evening everyone a bit of a different type of card for me to share tonight I finally got this stunning Bird cage die and it arrived a few days ago and of course I was so excited when it arrived especially as it was a prize i chose from my Sir Stampalot voucher from Brenda at Floral Fantasies thanks huni.
Well I am sorry to say I am unsure of the papers as these also were a prize from the lovely Elaine thanks huni I love them so much.
I have distressed the bird with Antique Linen ink and added a small gem for his eye,gems were also used to decorate the birdcage.The sentiment is from a Sheena Douglas set that I also won lol.which has been stamped in vintage photo and distressed with Antique Linen.
omg the flowers and ribbon were also prizes wow this was the cheapest card I ever made the only thing i paid for was the card base wow.The leaves (I paid for the punch) have also been distressed with Antique Linen.
I would love to know what you all think.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Bearly mine-bring on the bling
Crafters Companion-Glitter/Glitz

Sir Stampalot-Whateva you fancy

Thankyou all for visiting me today and I wish you all a great evening
