Hello everyone,
Hope you are well and happy and getting on with whatever you want to do..I am, and did, and these are what I made...but first, a word from my sponsor..or maybe my fan..re her bleeding tail..
So I started cutting with my new game changer mats and I'm hooked..
These are fabulous self healing mats that cut perfectly, no effort, no extra shims, no creaking and cracking sounds, they are wonderful, I'm sold.
So I put this mat to work and together, we had a day of die cutting while watching Netflix...
Once cut and glued, which is something I just love to do, they looked to me a bit flat, so time for a splattering...
And to me...
They look a lot better, more character..
an dso glad I bought a new cardstock pad [ or two] so lucky enough that the yellows and pinks are not hard to match for the layers..one shade darker than the other..
Then time for these tiny buds...
Fiddly but fun, and once you get going they just come together automatically..
Nice matching yellows and pinks too..
And then three cards came together in an afternoon..
Using water colour background panels I made...
Added a die cut doily and dew drop gems...
And before my Nana nap time, three cards were done,
photographed, water marked and posted up..
Well done me..bring on the couch..
Thank you so much for stopping by,
I'll see you tomorrow..
Luv CHRISSYxx

Fabulous card, and glad the cat's tail is better, that's good. Enjoy our weekend. Sorry I'm late, I was feeling bad for a couple of days!
They are just gorgeous, I never think of splattering to give them a little extra boost but it does look lovely, I enjoy putting the layering dies together also :)
Awe! So happy to hear that sweet Holly is feeling better! Your floral makes are absolutely stunning Chrissy! You always do such a beautiful job with your die cut flowers! I especially love that splattering!!
Fabulous project and beautiful design, ♥ glad Holly is the main character again and her tail has healed..
You’re so efficient in your cardmaking, I spend time moving bits around a lot. I’ve started listening to books while I craft, very relaxing. Beautiful cards!
So glad that Holly's tail is better now.
Your flowers are stunning again!!

Very pretty Chrissy. I am about to have a Nana nap myself, we lost an hour here in the UK on Sunday so I am suffering!! That's my excuse and I am sticking to it!! xx
They were beautiful before splatters, but after put them over the top gorgeous! Hope you had a well deserved nap.
