MMM - Flourishes and Diamonds

That's the challenge this week over on the Make My Monday challenge blog, here is my card


I have used a huge mish mash of items to make this card starting with an unknown card base (I found it yesterday whilst clearing out my craft room) It is a lovely red colour and has a fabulous scalloped edge to it. I teamed it up with some Very Vanilla card stock on to which I stamped my Lady - again this is unknown as I have had her for forever! The other stamps are from Stampin' Up - Everything Eleanor along with the Old Olive ribbon. My inks are Old Olive and Ruby Red along with Brushed Corduroy DI around the edges. I have added both clear and red flat backed gems to finish it off.
Details of the prize and gorgeous samples from the dt can be found over on the blog hope I see you over there - Jacqueline xx

    This is gorgeous Jacqueline and it's really spooky that we seem to have been doing the same thing to make our card as mine came from scraps. Beautiful colours on yours.
    Hugs, Fliss xx

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

Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
