Happy weekend everyone, I hope it's going to be full of good things wherever you are in the world.
Summer is in full swing here in the UK and the optional theme at Allsorts this week is perfect.
Bees, Blooms and Butterflies
Here is my card to tempt you.
I found a perfect red, rubber, Whimsy Stamp in my collection and coloured it, with Promarkers, to match a ditsy print paper pad that came from The Range. I used an old Impression Obsession butterfly die set to embellish the card. The sentiment was made up from two stamp sets, both magazine freebies, back in the day. A work colleague is retiring next Friday so I made this card for her.
This was earlier in the week. A long awaited summer morning.
It's lovely to have your company. See you soon xx

Super retirement card Sarah.
No mist at 5:30 this morning, the sun is still out though there are a few clouds. Finally some butterflies on the bank as well as a large dragonfly! :)
You've combined lots of different stamps and products to make a pretty retirement card Sarah. Lovely photo, not had any misty mornings but some nice sunshine.

A wonderful beautifully coloured image with beautiful papers,love your card and photo
Your card for your colleague's retirement is so thoughtful and beautifully coordinated! The Whimsy Stamp you chose perfectly complements the ditsy print paper, and your coloring with Promarkers is impeccable. The addition of the Impression Obsession butterfly die and the custom sentiment adds a lovely personal touch. It's sure to be cherished by your colleague as a heartfelt farewell gesture.
This is quite simply beautiful Sarah it looks so bright and fresh the image and papers are a pure delight and work perfectly together

A lovely delicate image and those papers certainly do go perfectly with it. I am sure you colleague will love it. Great photo too.
A lovely retirement card. The focal floral image is lovely and I like the way you created a light blue shadow around everything. Pretty papers and sweet little butterfly embellishments. You've managed to get EVERY element from this week's theme into your card. Top marks xxx
