Just wanted to say Hello

 Good morning my friend's i would like to welcome too new commentator's Sam & Patricia
Thank you all for leaving such wonderful comment's on my last card.
As you see no Butterfly's today HAHA.
I'm going round my friend's to help her sort out the rest of her brother's thing's.
I couldn't beleave last time i went we sorted his wardrobe,he had 94 tie's 78 pair's of trouser's
90 shirt's plus jumper's & tee shirt's 50 pair's of shoe's. she wanted to throw them all away,i persuaded her to let Terry take them to a charity shop.
Hoping to have a play with her ever growing  mountain of Die's if we get time.

Today's card 8x8  white card base i embossed it with my new Creative expansion's Eternity folder designed by Sue Wilson. I cut the Spellbinder's background die & backed it with deep plum foundation card & matted it to my base card i cut a Spellbinder's Cut Fold & Tuck die,
I cut some open & closed delicate Daisies die's glued together to make my flower for the middle.
I stamped my sentiment cut it out with a border corner tag die set by Sue Wilson.
tied a messy bow from C/E seam binding added a piece of tulle put my bow on & a pearl embellishment. The frame is the waist from the Cordoba die. Then i cut two Lyra die's one white one deep plum glued to the side offsetting them.Hope you like it.


 The middle i stamped the verse cut it out with the Scandinavian Stockholm die again
 designed by our Sue backed it with deep plum card added the pearl embellishment.

  2. Hi Lynda,
    Oh what a beauty!!! You really can work those dies and I love the plum and white together. Absolutely gorgeous. I always look forward to what you come up with next.
    Wow! That really is alot of clothes your friend's brother had. Hope you manage to get some crafting done with your friend too.
    Weather not too bad here in Nth Wales it's cloudy and drizzly hubby says it doesn't feel as icey cold as it has been....probably because we're on the coast.

    Love Sheila xx

    1. Hi Sheila,
      Oh thank you for your lovely comments.
      Terry said my head is getting bigger with all the good comments I'm getting on my cards lol.Unfortunately no time for crafting. She came home with me for dinner.
      I did get some goodies as he also did a bit crafting not as much as Margaret we sorted the spare room he had lot's of double sided tapes,some card two paper cutters Marther Stewart punches plus other bit's,asked if I wanted it all as she was going to bin the lot,so I claimed it.I won't need to buy any D/ S tape for at leased a year.
      It's been very cold today but no white stuff yet.
      Take care Love & Hug's Lynda xx

  3. Hi Lynda,
    What no Butterflies ?! tihi.This is a stunning card ! You really have the neck of putting colours and Sue's dies together so well.Your cards are Beautiful ! Your friends brother did have a lot of clothing, so many tie's . I'm glad you got Terry to take it down a charity and it's all not going to the dump. Your friend sound she got a loads of dies. Hope you got some time for play. Started a card yesterday so felt good but today it's a standstill again, One day on, one day off so tomorrow should be a good day :-) What happened to the nice frost we had? today it's rain and raw so heating bill will go up... Have a good evening, Warm hugs Maria x

  4. Hi Lynda,
    I really love this one! Mind you the Lyra die is one of my favourites and I love how you've offset the two colours. Lovely bow as well and the whole card just looks right! Love the inside too.
    Made two cards yesterday and prepped some some work for Kids. Need to make a welcome to new home card and an engagement one! Still thinking! Bet you can hear the wheels turning in Kent!
    Damp, miserable day here today and cold!
    Keep warm. Enjoy your time with your friend! Where on earth did he store all those clothes!
    Lots of love, Myra xx

  5. Hiya Lynda. Gorgeous. The colour's, dies, the design, everything about it is beautiful. I inherited a lot of those cut die and fold dies last year, Ive had a little play with 1 set, but with my finger's I found it really fiddley, not tried any of the other's yet. This is going to sound really stupid, but when the cut and fold dies are cut out is it like straight forward, like you can see which way they fold or whatever ? Sounds daft doesn't it, and is it best to use patterned on both sides card/paper to get the right effect ?
    Well, time to crack on with dinner and look forward to checking in tomorrow. I may just make a card tomorrow... Oh blimey : 0 I HAVE to, its Mr L's birthday on the 24th !!!
    Have a relaxing evening.
    Stay warm.

    1. Hi Steph
      Sorry for late in thanking you for your lovely comments. I was doing them last night but for some reason my answer wouldn't publish.
      answer to the cut fold tuck die's,they are quite easy to fold.I will put a couple on here for you to see how they fold & hope it helps you.
      Have a good day Steph & stay warm it's freezing out.

  6. Hi Lynda, The composition on this card is fabulous. You know the lyra is a favourite of mine. I love the way you have used the scrap for your frame. I have 1 set of cut,fold and tuck dies which Emma brought me back from Vancouver but I haven't used them yet. Gorgeous colour on the ribbon.
    Shoulder is not great so am struggling at the moment and feeling a little down with it.
    Anyway, hope you have had a good day and have a good night. Warm hugs
