Hi Everyone
Great news .. .. .. my Tattered Florals die arrived today .. .. yay!!!!! (Thank you for your help Coops!! xx).
So of course I had to put my lovely die straight to work. Lots of cutting has been happening today and I could have quite happily just used it to cut flowers all day long .. .. .. but my "do list" for the day just wouldn't allow it.
But I can show you some of what I cut and used on the creation below. I just couldn't wait to use it on some of the more "unusual" papers I have .. .. .. you are going to be sick of seeing these flowers .. .. if you aren't already LOL!!!
No backing papers today .. .. everything done with stamps, embossing powder and distress inks.
Here is the result of my session of indulgence:

Here is the result of my session of indulgence:
and the close up
For the base layer:
Image: Magenta "Buds and Flourishes" (Embossed with clear embossing powder)
For the middle and top layer:Image and Sentiment: PaperArtsy "HP1004EZ"
Sizzix Die: "656640" Tattered Florals
Leone Em Pty Punch: "CP30" Ash Branch
Distress Ink Pads: Old Paper and Tea Dye
Inkssentials: Crackle Accents (love the look this gives .. .. put it takes soooo long to dry and crack)
Brad and metallic wool from the stash box
I quite like looking for unusual wool to use on my cards as there is so much on just one ball .. .. this metallic wool is gorgeous .. .. .. but I don't think I would like to wear anything knitted in it. It would be a bit too "itchy" for me. LOL!!!
Next I would like to share my happiness. I am only too aware of the Tattered Florals die being in short supply (and lots of people wanting one) so if you would like to receive a little envelope full of Tattered Florals as a present from me then simply add your name to Mr Linky at the bottom of this post and one lucky person will be the owner of an envelope full of loveliness.
I will do the random org. thingy on Saturday morning so please add your name before 12.00 midnight on Friday 20th August if you are interested. If no-one is interested I will take it that everyone already had this die but me LOL!!!
Have a good evening everyone.
Love Jules xx
Edited now to remove Mr Linky as the random org. has been generated and the prize won by Doreen. Have fun Doreen!!!

What a great card. I have to admit that I was one of the lucky few who got the tattered florals not long after they were released - but I haven't really used them but you have now inspired me to do so. Nicola xx
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! Glad they arrived safely. I've given up trying to get my own and have instead invested in spellbinders flower creations 3. I'm rather excited by the results I'm getting, but can't share yet as they are DT pieces. will have to bring you some to the next Sir S day x
ReplyDeleteYou've cetainly put your dies to good use, gorgeous creation, and fabulous flower. But I did have to click on the photo to find your heart, or should I say hearts.
ReplyDeleteHappy crafting

Hi Jules, I can see it was well worth the wait, your card is stunning! I have had one for ages & am absolutly ashamed to say it doesn't get used enough. How very kind of you to offer the die cuts, someones going to be happy. I am, however, desperate to get hold of the magnolia vintage tag as I can't get that anywhere :-(
