Another year has come and gone and now we start a new one. At least we are not in lockdown this year, although we might as well be with all of the warnings they are giving us. Any way that is not why I'm here. This year I want to get my Mojo back and to start blogging more regularly, let's hope that I can keep it up. My first card for this year was made for my Crafting Friend who's celebrates her Birthday at the end of December. For her card I used Carnation Crafts Lots Of Love collection. I love the richness of the colours in this collection, so different to the other collections that have been coming out recently. I used a 7x7 card base along with one of the coloured card stock and matched it to the colour of the flowers. After matting with some white card and a backing paper from the collection I printed onto a sheet of white card and lined the die up so that the sentiment would be visible. The flowers have about four layers to them and the humming bird two. I'm pleased with how it turned out and am glad to say that my friend loved it.
Thanks for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

A beautiful colour palette Sue, the hints of orange in the pink flowers carries the whole colour theme.

What lush colours Sue! Lovely card. x
I'm not surprised your friend liked this card, it is beautiful and must look spectacular for real with the layers on the flowers and bird. Never tried any products from this company, the colours are lovely and not garish as is the case with some printed items.
A beautiful card Sue, you certainly should be pleased with it, a lovely image and the colours are gorgeous.

Hi Sue
Sorry for being a stranger .. .. hopefully things are going to improve this end on that front.
I am not surprised your friend loved her card it is gorgeous and I love the colours.
I have also scrolled down to see what I have missed on your blog and have seen so many beautiful projects and was particularly drawn to the butterfly card you made for your daughter.
I hope you had a good Christmas and wish you a rather belated happy 2022. I hope that things are going to be a little calmer for you this year.
Love Jules xx
I love the lilies on you card. I have two of these in my garden in just those colours. Like you am trying to get my mojo reinstated and blog more this year. Hugs Mrs A.
Very pretty birthday card for your friend.
Can't see a lack of mojo . . . but I hope it comes back to you for 2022 Sue.
Hugs,Sarn x
