On a Roll Take Two

WOW Another couple of days of being on a Crafting Roll....and boy am I enjoying it....
 
First things first. This is the Birthday Card and Gift that I made one of our neighbours.
She loves green, but only certain tones of green.
 
 
I decorated a basket with some elasticated ribbon/lace around the top. Then I put some wide raffia in green around the bottom half of the basket, then a cream knitted textured lace on top of that.
I decorated with large and small leaves, a cream tea rose, stringed pearl spray and two pearl stick pins.
 

The colours used on this card are Tim Holtz Forest Moss and Bundled Sage.
 
From what I am told, she absolutely loved both of them...I hope she wasn't just being kind lol
 



  
The above card was made for a 'One Word Wonder' challenge over on the Mad Crafters Giggles Facebook Group. The word was 'Water'. I used a S.W.A.L.K image and the backing paper is a 12x12 K&Co paper that I found in my stash.

 
 
 

The above card is another card I made for  a 'One Word Wonder' challenge over on the Mad Crafters Giggles Facebook Group. The word was 'House'. This was a pack I found in my stash. I won it in a raffle at a crafty meet last year.
 
 



This card was made from a topper set from Kanban. I used an A4 embossing folder to make the spotted embossed backing. I love the bright sunshine yellow.
 
 
 
Thank you once again for all the lovely comments that people leave on my blog. All comments will be returned, even if it takes me a couple of days to return the visit.
