Hi Everyone
Happy Tuesday!
I hope you have all had a good day.
Ours started very dull and overcast and then by mid afternoon turned into the most beautiful sunny day .. .. .. until all the flying ants decided to make an appearance!! If they were white it would have looked like we were having a snow flurry! I have never seen so many.
Anyway, enough of those .. .. everytime I think of them I start itching LOL!!
I was having a good sort out and putting away leftovers from some finished weddings this morning .. .. and decided that I would use a selection of them to make a teeny tiny card (3.5 inches square for anyone who is new to my blog).
There colours were not all part of the same wedding .. .. but I felt they worked well together .. .. and it also gave me chance to have another play with my Polychromos Pencils. There aren't many colours in my collection at the moment but I think these colours worked well:
This used:
Image: Penny Black "3868J" Portraits
Sentiment: X-Cut Mini Die "With Love"
Polychromos Pencils
My Trusty Sewing Machine
White Gel Pen
Glamour Dust
Ribbon
We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board
I am entering my card into the Penny Black Saturday Challenge where the theme this month is Flowers and also Pixie's Snippets Playground where the lovely Di encourages us to use up our offcuts .. .. well the little silver pieces in my sentiment show you just how small a snippet can be LOL!!!
Catch again soon .. .. I hope!

They do work well together...the colours are glorious and I love your design and I really like smaller cards at the moment too....great cards xxxx
A beautiful card Jules and lovely coloured flowers - polychromos pencils are still on my wish list!
We had a glorious day yesterday until about 4.30 when the heavens opened - still pouring with rain now but at least the gardens look lovely and fresh!

Absolutely gorgeous Jules, beautifully designed and coloured with your pencils, I'm always amazed at how much you pack on to such a tiny card, love it Kate x
A lovely little card - great colouring with the Polychromos - love them, particularly on kraft card as well as the more conventional white or cream.
Such a pretty card Jules, beautifully coloured flowers - I must have another go at colouring on Kraft.

Just gorgeous Jules! The colours work wonderfully together and it's a fabulous card! I do love the sweet little sentiment die you used - gosh, you must have a lot of patience!

What a beautiful card, and made with leftovers, absolutely stunning ! Beautiful colours, and lovely details ! Oh, we had flying ants too, but not so many, it's so nasty ! I do hope that you can enjoy the rest of the week without creepycrawlies ! Hugs, Enny
I skipped straight to the bottom when I read "flying ants" euuuuuuw!! Such a pretty card and those pencils are a glorious shade xx
Love the flowers on the kraft card, great colours, great inlaid sentiment and love how you have used the ribbon. I wouldn't know where to start with pencils, haven't even mastered Copics and ProMarkers yet.
You posted this after I had finished my commenting last night, you usually managed to get in just before I have finished.
Fingers crossed I am fine thank you but ready for another holiday, if only I could find one that ticks all the boxes.
Glad your Weddings are still going strong.

What a really beautiful little card this is. The pencils work so well on the kraft card. I love the colours you've used. Barbxx
In the case of your card , small is beautiful , in the case of the ants maybe not , my hubby likes them and tells me to let them be .
