Parfum

This card was case'd from Janas Paperdreams - she does such lovely cards!!

The card base is thick whisper white, then a layer of melon mambo, whisper white embossed with the new old world paper embossing folder, the frame has been diecut using the ornate frames and stitched rectangles.  The roses are from the dressed to impress stamp set as is the perfume bottle and the little leaves are from bouquet bunch framelits which I'm sure are retired.  You could use any leaf die though.

The roses have been coloured with light and dark lovely lipstick blends and the light real red blend. The leaves are coloured with light granny apple green blend and the diecut leaves are granny apple green cardstock.  

The whisper white embossed layer was first sponged with melon mambo ink and then embossed.  The centre of the perfume bottle has been 'wink of stella'd'  Not even a word but I'm sure you know what I mean.

CIRCUS TRAIN

I had a few weeks of classes organised before lockdown at the end of March, some of which came from the Mini Catalogue.  By the time we were allowed to meet again that catalogue and products had retired but rather than start all over again, I've used them in my classes explaining to attendees that some product may not be available now.  They were all OK with that - thank you ladies!!!!

I purchased action wobbles (mini action springs) from Amazon and placed one behind the monkey - looks really cute when she wobbles.  I shown my class how to make clouds with a punched scallop circle and sponging with seaside spray ink.  It's not a new technique by any means but it's good to remind them just how easy it is.

The 3/4" and 1/2" circle punches are also retired but it is easy to substitute them with circle dies or different size punches.

FERN LOVELINESS

Just a lovely simple card but oh so stunning!  There are no sentiments on the front or inside so this card could be used for anything from birthday to sympathy.  

I know lots of people have raved over the Forever Greenery Suite and I have to say that I agree wholeheartedly.  It's beautiful and will probably stay at home with me forever - lol.

I love the wee hint of gold - the gold laser-cut speciality paper is just gorgeous.  I have used the White Perfect Accents which are now retired.
