Gone floral

Good afternoon blogland

Still living on the edge and blogging at odd times! I'm sure I'll get back to early morning blogging soon, but at the minute it's all over the shop.

No interesting life to waffle on about at the minute - things seem very quiet, ooh except that TTT went back to school, yay! Only one day of disruptions! Also got some things ordered for her GCSE Geography trip to Iceland in September. Pleased about that. 

Now a question for UK people I've finally almost ran out of plain black card - I had a huge pile of A4 card now that's down to a couple of sheets.  Where does everyone buy their plain card (I tend to use either 300 / 340 gsm)? It's probably going to have to be brought on-line as there are no card shops near me, so postage needs to be taken into account.  Hit me with your recommendations!

Oooh and while I'm here, I might as well post the card I made! 😂

For some reason I went floral, not my usual thing at all! Here's the evidence:

Supplies used:

Digital stamp (image):

Alex Syberia Design - Spring Bouquet

coloured with Copics

Rubber stamp (sentiment):

Taylored Expressions - Simple Strips: Birthday

Dies:

Taylored Expressions - Simple Strips: Aysmmetrical

Un-branded rectangle stitched die

What I did:

Printed the digital image onto Copic friendly paper (re-sized to my 5x7 card blank) and printed out.

Coloured the image in with my Copics.

Die-cut out the image with the stitched dies, to create a base and frame.

Glued the inner panel to card blank, added 3d foam to the outer panel lined it up with the base panel and stuck it down.

Added 3d foam to previously stamped and die-cut sentiment and added it to the card over both the raised frame and flat image.

et voila, job done!

 So as I've waffled on (after saying there was nothing to waffle on about) at length above, I'll just say cheerio for now here, and see you later.

Signing off,

Sarah

Crafty Catz: #580 - Anything Goes (optional twist add flowers) This is my second entry as I thought I could do better than flowers on the patterned paper, which was my previous entry! 

Cupcake Inspirations: Inspiration #536 - Pink and Mint.  I'm entering but I'm not sure if my 2nd flowers are more blue than mint.  No worries if I don't qualify for the prize.
