Winter Rose

Morning, I'm sorry I have been away so much, several reasons or excuses, my RA, with all this cold and wet weather it takes me about an hour just to be able to move my hands LOL, then that thing called a Nook, I love it!!  Then the Holidays, cleaning house, etc etc.  Plus, my Mojo is gone!!!  I know it will come back but until then I am really struggling to come up with cards or ideas, so bare with me.
Here is one I did manage to come up with yesterday, no stamping, but I love how it turned out.  I used all Heartfelt Creations dies and paper. 
HCDP1 225  Frosty Blanket paper
HCD712 Bella Rose Die
HCD727 Vintage Floret Die
HCD716 Layered Elegant Swirl.
That's it, okay, I'm gonna go comment on your blogs then try and come up with another card or two.  In case I don't get back on here, Have a Wonderful and Blessed New Year!!!!

Happy Anniversary

Wake up, it's Monday, brand new day that no one has ever used before!!!!  Here is another 5x7 card I made for Tina.  I think she said it was for her parents or Grandparents.  Hope she likes what I came up with, she is a very good customer of late LOL!!!  Again it's all white with a touch of gold and pink. I started by using Darice's embossing folder, not sure of the name.  I cut 2 of the Heartfelt Creations hearts out using HCD728 Timeless Amour Die, I love that die,lightly sponged the edges and glittered the cut out lacy part.  then stamped the sentiments using some Stampin Up stamps.  I added several flowers I punched out with a Martha Stewart flower punch, added Gold Liquid Pearls and fern twigs to finish it.  That's it for now......see ya later on your blog.
