Here's one I made earlier.

Hello there, I am slowly easing myself back into crafting and blogging and thought I would share another card that I made a while ago but haven't blogged.

This one is a Get Well Card and I wanted to keep it clean and simple with some embossing and a sentiment. The sentiment is from the new Sentiment Stamps by Sarah Hurley, and the set is full of great every sentiments that can be used for lots of occasions from Births to New Home.  I embossed some plain white card with an embossing folder I have in my stash, popped some grosgrain ribbon on and some wee punchie flowers with gems on them. I opted for green as it is quite a neutral and calming colour.

Over at Cute Card Thursday Challenges this week, and this is my final one as a Guest DT member, and I have loved it.

I opted to make a vintage style sewing themed card.  I chose a neutral colour theme and used the Dictionary paper from the Sarah Hurley Curio Digi Kit, which is full of gorgeous vintage themed items. I lightly stamped Inkylicious butterflies over it using Vintage Photo Distress ink, and used the ink to distress the edge of the paper and the die cuts too.  The die cut is from my Tim Holtz Sewing room die.  I used a peice of cardboard that came as packaging from a recent stash buy, and embossed it with a butterfly folder before die cutting it.  I had some gorgeous lace from one of my crafty friends, Anda, and used that as an embellishment on the mannequin.  To add some more details to the card, I used my Martha Stewart Monarch Butterfly punch(I adore this) and a wee cheapy punch I got from Tesco.  To carry on the neutral theme, I used some linen twine from Stampin' Up around the bobbin, and finished it off with a pretty wee brass button. Phew, that was a long explanation!!
