Floral and Flutters

Hello friends

I'm ignoring the rain, the leaves turning golden, the darker nights and the 
dithering of whether to put the heating on...and showing you a Summer card today!

Still slightly hooked on my white phase so the background of this card
is dead easy, white card base and Floral die - cut in white too.
Love that the die set has that rectangle frame as well as the inset.
An injection of colour with Flutters and the strip across the card.

I hadn't thought to stamp onto patterned paper until I tested the stamp on a
scrap piece in my bin and thought...I like that!  Happy accident.

Both Floral and Flutters is available to purchase, just click on the highlighted names.

That boy of mine has his first Design Team project on his blog today,
it's quite funny to hear him say "I'm busy typing blog posts"! 

Take care friends - I'm back tomorrow.

  3. Morning Christine, This is a gorgeous card, I love the look of white base with white background die-cut on top, it has a lovely effect, then the flash of colour finishes the card off beautifully.

  8. Love it, Christine!
    I do love the white on white effect and the butterfly just makes it a bit more special.
    If I hadn't just ordered some matting basics dies I would be buying the Floral background
    right away but it's gone right to the top of my wish list, along with beautiful Flutter :)

  11. I love white on white and this is inspiring me to have a go at using a background die in this way. It doesn't need much else to make a beautiful card - thank you
