Fairy and flowers

Hello there,
this is a card which is out of my comfort zone as I usually do "less is more" type of cards and this one has quite a bit going on. I'd got some Lili of the Valley papers free with Quick Cards Made Easy which I liked but didn't really know what to do with. So I looked around and found a sketch and a couple of challenges which I thought I'd have a go at and this is the end result. I used a Kraft card base and some pink and green card which matched the papers. I used the Tonic Fae Trellis die and cut the fairy out and matted it onto green card then Kraft card, punched some small flowers, die cut a sentiment, added pearls here and there, a couple of small butterflies and some faux stitching.

I'm quite pleased with the end result so will perhaps play around with patterns more. What do you think?

I'm entering this into the following challenges:

Sunny birthday card

Hello there.

I wanted to make a bright sunny birthday card for a friend that would be easy to post and this is what I came up with.

I used the Tonic Happy Birthday Sentiment die set, it's really flexible as you can layer it up with foam pads or keep it fairly flat by just using glue which is good for posting. I did the latter with this one and started with a 14 cm x 14 cm cream card blank. I cut the large and small layers from yellow card, and the middle one from cream card and just layered them up together. I popped a pale yellow flower in the middle and job done!

Wedding card

Hello there, thanks for visiting.

This is a wedding day card I've made. I used the Tonic Affections die set cut from blue and white pearlescent card layered with foam pads. I embossed white pearlescent card with the Amelia embossing board and dusted it with silver ink. Then cut flowers from blue card and mirri using the Plush Peony die set and added a silver Fanciful Flourish. All was matted and layered on to silver and blue mats, then on to an 8 x 8 card blank.
