Over the weekend (yes, last weekend!) I made some quick cards with the left overs from the 'Let's Do Lunch' card that I posted a few days before. I don't normally do quick cards ( I like the whole process of becoming completely involved in a card, experimenting as I go along), but I really enjoyed making these.
All the papers featured on these cards are from the free download called Neapolitan available from Gina K's blog.
The flowers are from the Clare Curd Signature Range (under the Papermania brand) Doodles stamp set stamped onto pink and brown core'dinations. Sorry I can't remember the exact names of the cardstock. The Sentiment is also from the range, but from the CCSR Sentiments stamp set, stamped and embossed with white ink and powder. The pink crushed velvet brads are Doodlebug Love boutique brads, and I just love these Papermania self adhesive white pearls on the flowers. I use these all the time and feel so lost when I've run out. the great thing about them is you can change the colour with permanent pens!
As you can see, this one is a very quick card! I have cut the squares to size, then distressed the edges with a craft knife. The sentiment is again from the CCSR sentiment stamp set, and the glittery brads are from We R Memory Keepers christmas range.
I think this is my favourite. I just started playing around on the cardblank 'till I came up with a pleasing look. The fantastic flower is from the new Papermania range of paper flowers, there are 12 colours to choose from, with 20 in a pack for only £1.99! I think the buttons are Basicgrey, and the Rub ons and brad are Doodlebug.
Thanks for looking!
Love, Clare x
