A lot of reflection on this card from the holographic card but this is the best I can do.....
A lady wanted a card with an old Movie star on but with flowers! Not that easy so this is what I have come up with. Image I found on the net..backing papers are from Paper Cellar and I have used one of my new dies the Cheery Lynn Flourish leaf strip, Cuttlebug Wicker weave embossing folder used along the side..just added a 3 rose which aren't bright white but it all I had....hope she likes it!
We have sunshine and blue skies down here in Somerset this morning..hope you all have a good week end..

Just to say thank you for your lovely comments on yesterdays posting but you will probably notice the comments are'nt there...well after reading them I hit the wrong button and promptly deleted them!! What a numpty...
Anyway had a great day at Westpoint, great company and thought you might like to see my stash of goodies that I bought....more new dies, a few stamps, and some gold, silver and black embossing paste and a few more masks to play with. I also bought some glitter card, 6 x 6 cards which are in the picture. Considering I only had 4 items on my shopping list I didn't do too badly!!
Promise I wont delete any more of your lovely comments today..lOl...lOl.

Flora commented on the Britannia number dies that I bought, Rob Adams of CD fame is now producing his own dies and these are his, he also had some wording dies in 2 different sizes....
Another LOTV image that Eileen and I coloured when trying out her Spectrum Noir pens....didn't have a red in her sest so used a Copic red to darken up the deepest pink.
Backing paper is from stash and has no name on it...Sizzix Dotty embossing folder used as well a a Mistletoe Die from Sizzix....
My verdict on the Spectrum Noir pens....I think we managed well on the two Sets we had but for me Copic's beat them hands down and I prefer brush ends as opposed to bullet nibs.
Off down to the Craft Show Westpoint, nr Exeter today with friends... not a lot on my list to buy but as always will come home with other goodies that I WANT!....will let you know tomorrow....

Yesterday afternoon I spent with my friend Eileen playing with her new Spectrunm Noir pens, we had the two sets to work from the Lights and the Pastels...we had no red but used the darkest pink...apart from the flesh colours( we used pencils) I think they worked very well.
Using one of the new LOTV Christmas images....backing papers were from a pad from DCWV called Rose Tinted Christmas... Used a Martha Stewart holly punch and the sentiment is also from LOTV.
Just noticed the children are walking down hill...lOl...lOl.
Will post the other one we did tomorrow.

A really quick card this morning..I visited My Mums Craft shop last week and they had a lovely selection of the lovely Wild Rose Bella stamps and papers...unfortunately they had sold out of this particular stamp but I liked I so much I bought the pre coloured die cuts....which are also great for really quick cards! I will buy the stamp when its back in stock.
Backing papers are all from the Bella Paper pack, Spellbinders frame and the sentiment is from Craftwork Cards. Just added a little bit of glitter in the centre of the flowers....
Slowing getting used to my new PC but still cant get used to my tiny keyboard so you might just get a few 'smelling pistakes' along the way..lOl...lOl...
Have a good day

Still trying to get the hang of my new PC and scanner...this photograph is a bit wonky but need to get on with some commission cards so posted it any way!
These little bears came from LOTV, coloured with pencils. Mounted onto Cuttblebug swiss dots embossing folder, SU scallop punched used across the bottom, backing paper is from Craft Creactions, a couple of small flower punches also used,small leaves cut from Cheery Lynne swir, Cuttlebug corners.

Well what a nightmare 48 hours.....new PC, printer and scanner so such more to learn on both the PC and scanner...I think it is a age thing that as we get older we just dont like change but unfortunately we have to at times.
Also the old blogger interface has gone!
My card today is for a 60th birthday and is a digital image...coloured with copics. Backing papers are from Dovercraft Garen Party paper pad...
Cheery Lynne swirl, joy craft daisy die.
Sorry I haven't been able to visit all your blogs over the past week but hope to catch up with you all this week...
