Flower Frenzy.

By
Today's challenge over on Simply Stampin' is 'Floral Frenzy' - how lovely. I love flowers and my garden has erupted lately with some stunning Peonys.

Unfortunatly I don't have  any peony stamps so instead I took my inspiration from one of the design team - Angela . I really loved the gorgeous colours she had used to match the Greenhouse Gala DSP.
OK - so I didn't copy her card exactly - I chose the same stamp from the Ornate Flowers set and used some Sage Shadow card stock and Sage Shadow and Cherry Cobbler ink.
Thank you Angela for your brilliant inspiration - hope you don't mind me copying!!!

    I love this card and the colours! I have three peonys in the garden in flower at the moment, and they are looking the best ever this year. I can see why you have made the top 3 so many times. Thank you for joining in this week at Simply Stampin Challenge.

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!!

I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
