AND THE FINAL TWO...

 Hello everyone,

Brr... we had a big frost this morning[ Sunday] and it was so pretty at 5 am when I let Holly out for her tinkle, it wa sdark and pure white everywhere......then I slammed the door and shot back to bed..Holly had to stay out until I got up. which, she appreciates because then she can do this....



For the rest of the day, or unitil 2.30pm, then she goes outside..

But I'm really here to share my last two Waterlily cards...
A pink one and a purple one..


These were not glued at this point, just making up my mind but I LOVE those background papers I made, really I do..


Flipped the waterlily's over and added foam squares..


Distressed the edges as I can't cut straight!!..


Nice dimension, but not too much..


And card number one for today..
just had to add the green Dragonfly and two simple gold embossed sentiments
and of course the clear dew drop gems..

Now number two....


I loved the purple and did this with Altenew  dye ink and a dauber..


Dimension...got it..


gold embossed sentiments, frogs, dragon fly and sparkly Nuvo gems..


And here they are together...what a great day,
 and so happy that it all came easy in the end...

Thank you so much for stopping by..

I'll see you tomorrow...

Luv CHRISSYxx

Beautiful Chrissy, the background is so dramatic it gives everything such depth and of course those gorgeous lily-pds, frogs, dragon fly and so many wonderful elemaents all add to these fabulous creations.
I love it in winter when we get a frost, everywhere sparkles doesn't it, Holly looks adorable there, bless her. Stay warm, for once the UK is sizzling...xxx

Absolutely gorgeous cards Chrissy love all the dies and great pic of Holly-ours are all stretched out like dead animals on any patch of cold floor they can find-what I would give for a lovely cold frost morning right now well anytime actually prefer them to the heat especially what we are having just now!!!
