Hi Everyone
Quite a few things to share today.
First is my little make of the day. Not sure if I have "over-done" the embossing - but I do like it!
Quite a few things to share today.
First is my little make of the day. Not sure if I have "over-done" the embossing - but I do like it!
This used:
Papers and Sentiment: Pink Petticoat
Sizzix Flower Die: "656079" Flower Layers #5
Sizzix Leaf Die: "656075" Branch with Leaves
Sizzlits Die: "656512" Butterfly #12
White Core'dinations for the butterfly
Cuttlebug embossing folder: Script
Diamond Stickles
Buttons, pearls and ribbon from the stash box
After embossing the cut flower and leaf shapes I rubbed the edges gently with an old black ink pad to bring out the script.
The butterfly had been cut from the white Core'dinations cardstock and I rubbed this with an old emery board to bring out the inner core.
Next I want to share an award that was given to me by my lovely blog buddy Kerry (A Girl Who Just Loves to Craft). Thank you Kerry for thinking of me .. .. I would like to think I spread a little bit of sunshine LOL!! If you get chance please pop over and see Kerry's gorgeous creations - she is certainly one busy crafter!

I know I am supposed to pass this award on .. .. but as you know I can never single people out .. (anyway you all add sunshine to my life) ... ... so anyone who visits .. .. .. please feel free to lift it from my blog in the knowledge that I would love to share it with you.
And last but by no means least .. .. where was that pesky heart on Saturday? (It even took my hubby a while to find it this time).
Many of you found it but I received a few messages from people who didn't .. .. .. so to put you out of your misery here it is:

Definitely NOT too much embossing, Jules. I love it. The leaves look like they have veins and the butterfly fits so well.
Thanks for pointing out your heart, I would never have found that, my eyesight is not THAT good!!
Hope all goes well at the Dentist.

The card is lovely Jules...not over embossed..just fine as it is!! x
Lovely Jules, nice and clean cut, if you get my meaning, the embossing is smashing, I don't think it's too much at all, looks very effective.
Beautiful card! Love the idea with embossing - not too much at all ! Perfect I would say!
Hugs,

Hi Jules,
Thanks for the nice comments!!!
I love your card. It's nice do something different, but I never have the imagination.
Love,
Kerry xx
That's what I wondered Jules, I did a comment just after this went up and I thought it had not clicked when it should.
Can't remember exactly what I said, but along the lines you can never have too much of anything in our crafty world.
And also that I am pleased to see you've not been twiddling your fingers today !!

Great card. Definately not too much embossing, just enough. What a great idea never thought of using my embossing plates like this, I normally just use them for background papers. Nicky xx
Hi Jules
What do you mean too much embossing? You can never have too much! :) This is a fantastic card, love the big flower and fab papers.

Definitely not too much embossing Jules. Coincidence blogging buddy, I've been using that same folder today but on a little bird!
The whole card is lovely and well done on the award. You thoroughly deserve it!

HI there Jules

I love the embossing, and I have that folder, so maybe I am biased!
LOVE what you did with it, awesome!
No way is there too much embossing, stunning creation Jules, very clever! Love the dsp and colour. Hope it was only a check up at the dentist! Take careX:)
