I got quite a few things and now that I have left the fair, I have remembered loads of other things that I wanted to get, oh well, there is always next year or the local craft shop!!
Anyway, onto my purchases which were a Spellbinders Labels Four die, I really wanted this die as there is a card on Christina Griffiths' blog - card-making-magic.com which I wanted to make, so I was so pleased to have been able to get it. I also bought a Card Stand die, so that I would be able to make my card stand up properly.
Here is the link for the actual card, you have to have Spellbinders Label Four in order to make this card.
As this was the first time that I tried this card out, I thought I would just go with white to see how it turned out. I must admit, I was rather pleased with myself.
I created a small corsage for this side of the card and introduced a bit of colour with the pink tulips and roses. I sprinkled the flowers with glamour dust just to give them a bit of sparkle. Christina sells corsages on her own site, however, you could try making your own as I did. Not perfect but passable for my first try at doing a corsage.
Embossed sentiment 'Best Time of the Year', due to the flash and angle that I was trying to take the picture at, it didn't come out exactly as I would have hoped. I used a silver plated butterfly and put a swirl at the bottom of the butterfly. The butterfly is actually silver looking but it just didn't come out as well when photographed.
Down the centre of the card I used white seam binding and over the top I used a beautiful embellished ribbon of pearls, I also put a small piece of ribbon on top and a silver dazzler to finish off.
I do hope that you like my card.
