Lazy Summer Salad Days

Hi back in.  Well I have been so busy creating eight projects for the CHA show in Chicago for Craftworkcards that I have very little for now to share with you all - Sorry!  But as soon as I can share, I will gladly!

Today I created in the Delightful papers the Craftworks Privilege club card that sold out within a week in Pretty in Pink.  It is a kit full of faded summer shabby chic with a splash of fizzy zest and so easy to work with. When I had finished the card it's beautiful colours reminded me of lazy summer salad days!!! The blooms are in the new colour way mixed Sweet Pea, Y-U-M-M-Y.  This card has had a great response over on the Craftworkcard Facebook and also on mine so I thought I would share it here on my Blog page.  I hope you enjoy it. 
When I'll be back in to share, who knows as I'm busy with more fabulous and Yummy projects with CraftworkCards, lucky me!

Thank you for popping in to see my creations and I really do appreciate all your comments. I will read them all with delight and pop back in to see you too!  And I would like to thank all of you that have recently jumped on board my follow wall, I really appreciate it and hope you enjoy following my creative journey!

Video Lounge - Vintage Blooms Kit for Craftwork Cards

Well I'm back in after 25 days absent.  I've not been on my jolly holidays or ill, but something far more exciting, I have been designing and creating my first project as a DT member for Craftwork Cards and have been 100% in my element.  The kit is called Pretty in Pink Vintage Blooms and I have really enjoyed producing my creations from the fabulous elements within the kit.  On the Craftworks Cards Web Page there is a video lounge where they show you how to create cards from their kits and from Monday the 2nd of July you can view me sharing how to create the Vintage Blooms Pretty in Pink card.  The making of the video was a really fun day - very hard but made easier with help from Julie, Andrew, Nikki and the great camera guys, thank you all for your support.  I haven't seen it yet, fingers and toes crossed for when I peek at it on Monday morning!!!!  I have spied  a Tweet on Craftwork Cards twitter feed that says 'the July Privilege Club Kit and video are just wow!' {Thank you}  Back to the kit -  I made 3 cards for the kit each with a different appeal and could not help myself, with the scraps left over I made a baby easel card too { a very cute number}  

I can't pick out my favourite card, let me know if you have a favourite - please! xx

This is my Vintage Blooms card

The Pretty in Pink Vintage Blooms Card

The wreath becomes a beautiful gift

The card still looks stunning when you remove the wreath

Below is my tag design card

This Union Jack inspired card is also a gift card, the hearts tags becoming bookmarks!

The baby easel made from the scraps!!  Cute!!!

Well I'm off to sleep now, it's v v late.  I am going to be Very Very busy again for the next few weeks, but will try to get a blog in if I can, but I'm not holding my breath.  I am sorry I have not been popping in and around to chat even lurk to my blogging buddies I do miss you all.  Bear with me please I will be back to full blogging capacity soon.

Hugs to all
