Hello crafty people, I hope you have all had a good week and are enjoying the weekend! This week my post was inspired by seeing a card by Maria Patrick on her blog – Maria’s Merry Makings. It was a white on white design with a pop of colour, really pretty. Well, I really like tone-on-tone cards so I thought I would use my new Camellia die from Sue Wilson to put together this card. Mine has no splash of colour – just white Centura pearl card, but I’ve added some texture with the embossing folder in the background and also an Anna Griffin die on top of that. I have been after the camellia die for a while but it always seemed to be out of stock so when I found it was available I had to get it! It’s designed by Sue Wilson at Creative Expressions and it’s great because it includes 31 dies – flowers and leaves in different sizes. Sure makes it easier when you want to do a cascade of flowers – you can run them through all at the same time :-). I stuck the bow on but then changed my mind but couldn’t prise it off! I would have liked to have used seam binding instead but didn’t have any white left! Anyway, here it is and I’ll say ‘cheerio’ until next week – take care, Karen 🙂
I used… Centura white pearl card, Tattered Lace Butterfly and Lattice Embossing Folders, Anna Griffin, Spellbinder and Creative Expressions Finishing Touches Camellia Dies, Lace and a Clearly Besotted Sentiment stamp.
(Please excuse the photo’s – I’m struggling a bit with this part of blogging! An expert photographer I am not! Hopefully I’ll get better with practice!)
Wow! Thanks so much for the shout out how sweet of you! Your card is absolutely gorgeous all in white using lovely dies! And, the white satin ribbon is perfect! Truly, a fabulous card…love it…well done!:-)

This is beautiful! The texture is just lovely. Now I have to go back and check out Maria’s. I missed it. Your photos are great. My tip (to everyone) is use a photo editing software after. You may already. Photobucket and PicMonkey both work for me. My photos always need to be cropped and straightened a bit.
