Vintage Parisian and a bit of floral



This is scheduled for Monday morning so fingers crossed that's when it pops up, never 100% certain Blogger will oblige.

My weekly Prickly Pear DT share is rather pink and feminine drawing my inspiration from the pretty vellum that arrived with my last DT pack. The vase and flowers are from the Vases Clear Stamp Set which includes several vases and floral options. The sentiment is the first line of the Gather Love sentiment, I wanted a narrow verse so masked the stamp before inking to use just one line and some roses and Cheery Lynn leaves to embellish.

And here are our lucky Blog Hop winners.................................


 Well done to you all pop over here to find out how to claim your prizes...............


Now for my Nicecrane DT pieces using some of Ignacios new Paris Exposition designs, it's a real bumper pack offering loads of inspiration and I have done one suitable for a man and one for a lady just to show how versatile they are. Being French I have a feeling my DIL will love these designs. 


Have a good Monday and as always my appreciation for your visit.

Woohoo!! I am excited to be one of the blog hop winners!!! That's awesome, Brenda! I will go over and check out the next step. Now for your 3 beautiful cards - the first one really caught my eye - the lovely vase, the flowers, die-cut leaves, and that amazing sentiment! Of course, pink and green is my favourite colour scheme too. The other two Paris cards are lovely, that's a great idea for a masculine card, and the lady's card is gorgeous too. All your cards are always a pleasure to see! Sending you well wishes today and always, Brenda!

It's your first card that catches my attention - the lovely matting echoes the ribbon beautifully & I love the way the angle of the sentiment echoes the pattern on the jug. A quite delightful reminder of all the spring blossom that is currently making an appearance.
