Hello friends, welcome and thanks for stopping by. I have been making the most of being inside with the heat, although I must say we have enjoyed some rain and thunder storms in the evenings over the past week. I have enjoyed playing around with some of the Little Birdie Crafts products and have to say they are a little bit addictive!!
The pre-embossed card stock from my stash has been adhered to a slightly larger card base using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L E-ZAdhesive Runner Ultra, and cut/embossed using the Spellbinders A-2 Matting Basics B Card Creator Etched Dies . The card front has been cut/embossed using patterned paper using the largest two dies from the Nestabilities Hemstitch Ovals Etched Dies Chantilly Paper Lace Collection by Becca Feeken. Narrow ribbon in both blue and orange have been wrapped around the layered card front and glued in the centre.
The Little Birdie Crafts Stamps- Flowerful Gratitude, has been stamped onto white card stock and coloured using Chameleon Pens. Next the image has been cut/embossed using the third largest die from the Spellbinders Nestabilities Scored and Pierced Rectangles Etched Dies and the Platinum Die Cutting Machine; and then popped up onto the layered card front.
A double blue and orange bow has been glued onto the left side of the image. A flower from the Little Birdie Crafts Handmade Flower Beaded Blooms- Pastel Palette, has been glued to the knot of the bow.

Oh Linda this is gorgeous - love the contrast of the oval against the rectangle card base, and the rectangle image panel. The image is a real sweetie, and so beautifully coloured
