Back and raring to go!!

It's been a while since my last blog, but I have at last caught up with my commissions. The last order that I had was for a retirement card which is pictured below.
The customer wanted a card in cream and brown with gold 'touches' and I'm pleased to say she was delighted with the end result.
Martha Stewart border punches and spellbinders cutting dies were used to make this 8" x 8" card, embellished with bronze coloured metallic butterflies, faux diamante spray, pearly gold hatpins and marabou feathers with miniature roses and last of all a ruched ribbon with bow.

Thanks for stopping by. xx
