More sample cards...

Good evening, Blogger friends!  Sorry to be MIA...again...but life is taking over at the moment!  The sun is till shining and we are making the most of it by grabbing every opportunity to go out in Daisy the campervan - we spent this last weekend in Porthmadog, at a really lovely site called Tyddyn Llwyn.  We popped along the coast to Criccieth and visited the castle, before heading to Black Rock sands for an hour or two...begrudgingly, as both hubby and I don't like the sand as it gets everywhere, especially so when you're in a camper! Sunday was spent being energetic at Greenwood Forest Park, where we walked, climbed and slid until our legs ached!
Mum had to do the workshop on her own last week as we were off again, in Scotland, visiting family - so Daisy has been well travelled this last couple of weeks! I do, however, have the cards that were made, based on a couple of sample cards that I'd done for the upcoming Sincerely Yours show at Bebington on the Wirral...only 2 weeks to go!!...

The first was this pretty Hibiscus card, which looks so different when inked with Vintage Photo Distress Inks.  I added in some extra die cut foliage and punched flowers between the decoupage layers...

...The second was a really quick card using some of the postage stamp embellishments, cut using a stitched square die.  The pretty pink polka dot from the Hibiscus set and one of the paper bows and this card was almost done!
I really liked the way these turned out and they are very much my style with the soft, pastel colour tones...I hope you like them too?!
I'm going to be busy this week producing discs and finding everything for the show...table cloths, shelving, stands, business cards, posters, etc, plus sorting out my sample cards, but I will be back in the morning with details of a fab new challenge which will be starting over at Passion for Promarkers, so until then...Take care.
Hugs,
