5-Petal Flower & Boho Blossoms Punch Birthday Card

Hi all,

Well, I'm here with another upload for today :) I've had my 5-Petal Flower punch for some time now, but I can count on one hand how many times I've actually used it on a card/project! It co-ordinates beautifully with "Spotlight On Christmas" on P.22 and the old Sale-A-Bration "Polka Dot Punches" stamp set, see here to view a Christmas card that I made with this punch back in November to create poinsettia flowers.

Anyway, together with Boho Blossoms punch, here's a recent card I made below:

Happy Easter Sunday

Hi all,

Hope you have a lovely Easter Sunday today.

Just a quick post to show you what I made recently for when visitors come by. I prettied up a glass jar that was my Nan's with Stampin' Up! accessories. Inside are little Thornton's foiled covered chocolate eggs, mmmmmm, unfortunately, some have already been eaten!

Here it is, inspired by the current Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalogue:


Happy Easter everyone, don't over do the choccies today :)

Be back later with full pictures of the earlier sneak peeks.
