English Country Garden Card

The Scrapology blog card challenge for June is to create a Country Garden card. Here is mine - made with G45 Secret Garden Papers...
 
Hope you like it.
 

Freebie Paper Cardfest

When I was shopping this morning I picked up a copy of Cards and Papercraft magazine - I'll be honest, it was a bit of an impulse buy because I liked the look of the freebie papers that came with it...

 
I had also bought some great little envelopes when I was at a paper shop down in Washington - so with the addition of 5 sheets of red card and some woodgrain embossed cream card I made a set of 20 little cards. I have left off the sentiments for now so that when I need a card I can just add the appropriate sentiment with a stamp, stickers or some rub-ons, In the paper pack there were 10 sheets of paper (2 of each design) and 4 sheets of die cuts. I managed to make 2 of each design of card.
Here they are...
And each one, close up...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I'm really pleased with my set of cards - it was a very enjoyable afternoon of crafting.
