DIFFERENT BUT THE SAME!!



Hello Everyone...

I've finished my painting lounge,dinning, craft, kitchen and toilet..all done and my arms are nearly falling off...my shoulders are aching, my back is sore, and all my craft stuff has to come into this room tomorrow..but then I have 4 more days off to get over it...I will show you some pictures soon..

But for tonight I have some cards to share that are in my "To Blog " folder and the watermark date will be old..lol..they have been there awhile..



There they are..the same photo but just decorated different and one the colour has been changed a smidgeon..



Corrugated card was asked for this one as it was an order and I remeber thinking how to incorporate it with such a pretty image, but it worked...and the butterfly got the seed bead treatment..



This one was an order too...love those sweet birds on a branch from WOC..

So there we go...going to take my aching back and flop on the couch..I over did it today..

Thanks so much for stopping by..

Luv CHRISSYxx

Gorgeous cards Chrissy! Isn't it funny how different papers make them look like they aren't the same image (if that makes sense!).
Happy to hear you finished the painting! Hopefully you'll get all put back together and be able to enjoy your last few days before returning to work!

It's amazing what just small alterations can do, i didn't realize at first how similar their basic designs are, because they look completely different. They're gorgeous. I've been absent due to a holiday abroad, but now I'm getting back to normal life and routines again - or at least I'm trying to:)

Wow Chrissy!! How on earth could you paint so much is such a short time?!!!! Both your cards are amazing. Love the beads on the butterfly and the design with the corrugated card on it is brilliant. Two beautiful and very different cards. So put your feet up for the rest of your holiday. You certainly deserve it. Big hugs, Carol S.xxxx

Hi there Chrissy , really appreciate your visit and kind words thank you . Awesome looking back on past makes thank you for sharing .I love how you can layer and embellish without looking as though card is over done and everything is where it should be . I always think that to overcome soreness and stiffness one should keep moving .
hugs Shirley-Anne

Beautiful cards Chrissy.
I feel your pain with the painting and renos. It seems like yesterday we were busy painting, etc the new home and I don't ever want to have to do that again. I'm far too old and out of shape to be a painting machine!

MiamiKel said...

Both of these cards are so elegant and absolutely stunning !

These are so pretty - I love both versions. Always a fan of the corrugated cardboard, of course, but I also really love the strips of fabric. Beautiful roses, beautifully framed.
