The card my colleague chose.

At the weekend I showed the first card I made to let my colleague see. She asked for a birthday card for her Mum's 70th. Her Mum likes flowers and she wanted 70 on it. You might notice there's no 70 on it. There is now as this is the one she chose. I love white cards with a touch of colour so I was quite happy with it. I had a feeling she would choose this one lol!

I used :-
Image :- from LOTV's wild flowers art pad cut out with a nestie.
Sentiment :- LOTV.
Embossing folder :- Tied Together from Couture Creations.
Ribbon from stash.

Best go now as I've achieved nothing all day and I still have my DT card to make for Saturday.

Totally Gorjuss 217 - Ribbon.

Good morning everyone. I can't believe it's January again already! And I must admit I am extremely embarrassed that it's been so long since as I posted on this blog. My broadband connection was very bad for a long, long time but I think (fingers crossed) that my new connection is much better!

Our first challenge of 2014 at Totally Gorjussis "ribbon." How easy is that? After all most of us love ribbon don't we?

One of the girls at work asked me to make a birthday card for her Mum who will be 70 later this month.

Here's what I came up with. Not sure I like it very much but I'm intending to give her a choice between this one and another one. She wants 70 on it but I won't add it until she makes her choice.


I used :-
Image :- Wildflower Meadow.
Sentiment :- Memorable Moments & For My Family.
Colouring :- Melon Mambo, Pink Pirouette, Pear Pizzazz & Old Olive.
Satin stitched ribbon in Primrose Petals.
Card :- Primrose Petals & Old Olive.
Candy dots :- Melon Mambo.
Designer vintage faceted buttons.
All from Stampin' Up!

Well after two days off work for New Year I was back to work yesterday afternoon and this morning. I'll catch up this afternoon as usual. I hope!

I'd love to hear what you think if you have time to leave a comment.
