Good Morning to you all, I hope you week is going OK.
I am just popping in with a few more of my Tattered Lace cards which were made using the new Royal Lace collection.
Since I joined the Tattered Lace team I have been itching to see if and how I could combine the use of dies together with the background I so enjoy creating and the lovely Blossom Branch which is part of the new Royal Lace collection which launched.............and sold out..........Friday to celebrate TL's second Anniversary is perfect.
I created the background in my usual way with a sun mask, Pan Pastels and then some sponged sunrays. I then cut the blossom die twice, fixed to the card and added some little blossoms made using a craft punch and tiny pearls stamens. And you can't begin to imagine how thrilled I was to discover my all time favourite Penny Black quote Sing, Dance, Love is also available as a Tattered Lace die and fitted in with my card perfectly. I am still amazed how delicate and fine the sentiments from TL are, yet cut out like a dream.
My second share is my first card using the amazing Panorana dies and was on the Tattered Lace blog yesterday so I won't bore you will all the details and products used as they are all listed there.
And I will leave you with this photo, Daisy, Poppy and Holly having a hard day at the office last week, or should I say the end of my craft room..............

Two beautiful cards today. The Tattered lace dies are so beautiful and I love the sentiment you have used. The hessian flowers on your second card are lovely too - very textural.
Enjoy your day

Well crafting is such hard work Brenda they have worn themselves out, lol.
Sorry Blogger isn't playing fair at the moment for you - hope the problem resolves itself soon.
Your cards today are gorgeous though and I can see them in their full glory, I absolutely love the first one with it's pretty peachy tones and the cherry blossom die, my kinda card. I'm going to see if I can invest in some Tattered Lace dies when I visit the NEC in March, any tips as to the most versatile?

Beautiful Cards Brenda!
They are both lovely but I really like the first one with the Blossom Branch. I actually have that die myself, but I've just not got round to using it.
The photo of the dogs is just fab. It looks like they've all had a really long tiring day.
I hope you are keeping well.
