Easter Lilies


Saturday morning and Fleur is hosting this weeks theme at Allsorts and would like to see "Anything but Square".

So a chance to make yet another easel card............I know yawn, yawn.........using my Grand Nesties, yummy new DP from Scribble Scrabble and some demo stamps from Hero Arts so afraid I don't have any codes for them as yet.

I created the three panels by masking and inking with Memento pear tart, cantaloupe and tangelino.....I use this combo no end as the three work together beautifully. I spritzed with Glimmer Mist pearl to bleed to colours a bit before removing the masks and then stamping the lily with versafine back and embossing with detail clear.


And I figure I can share these little gift bags with you which I made for the girls as by the time this post pops up they will all be on their way to Sir Stampalot at Peterborough.......or should be..........if they are not and arrive late then it will be detention for them........humm, I wonder what that would entail ?

I am so looking forward to the class which is another of those all day ones Chris and I have done for blog friends who come from far and wide. It's as much a social gathering as anything else, lunch, lots of yatter and a bit of crafting as well. I'm not sure what use I am going to be with my lousy eyes and balance, but I figure everything is prepped ready so if need be I can just sit and observe activity and of course talk for England.

A lovely shaped card Brenda and what gorgeous little gift bags! Hope you enjoyed the class and had a real 'pick-me-up' day - I'm a bit under the weather at the mo - Mark's had a virus for about 3 weeks and he's decided to pass it on - how generous of him lol.

Love Lynda xxx
