Our White on White with a Pop of a colour cards

Good Sunday Morning Ladies,

Well yesterday turned out to be so humid, it was such an effort to do anything,  mind you I was feeling a little exhausted as I went to Ikea with Becca on Friday morning, I find IKEA as mentally exhausting as physically!!  Becca was also shopping for a specific style of curtains,  curtain poles etc, also work top swatches/samples, same for cupboard doors/ handles etc, they have totally stripped the kitchen, bathroom, flooring out of their new house and are rebuilding, really exciting for them, a lot of work though. So I basically acheived nothing yesterday,  apart from this blog post !! 

Your Challenge Cards 

Janet

Janet's Description:

All the dies apart from the baby basket / Efolder are SWilson. If I remember correctly the baby basket is a CCompanion die.

Such a beautiful card Janet, there is something so special about a white card made with lots of lacy die cuts, so gorgeous 😍 

Thank you so much for taking part XXX 

Maria

Maria's Description:

My cards are mostly white with some crystals and gold sentiments. 

Maria,  I hope you are feeling a little less exhausted today, that is the reason I stopped going to the NEC, its just too big to get around,  quite overwhelming and I found it frustrating that there were so many non craft stands mixed in with craft ones.

Anyway thank you so much for two beautiful cards, perfect for weddings or anniversary cards.  XXX

Here’s a white card with a splash of colour 

John Lockwood die

Julie Hickey sentiment and Glossies There were 9 Glossies and 10 gerbera So covered one of the gerbera with a sentiment🤣

Such a clever solution to your lack of enough yellow glossies Karen, we wouldn't have known if you hadn't said anything 😉  There is something so special about a simple daisy, your card is beautiful, thank you so much for inspiring us XXX

Lilian 

Lilian's Description:  

Hi, here is my card for this week, rather stuck for ideas, hope this is ok, I used an old embossing folder and a stencil I made. The leaves are a mistake. 

Thank you so much Lilian,  your care is beautiful,  it would make a beautiful wedding or anniversary card.  Those flowers are really pretty XXX

Sonia

Sonia's Description :

Card 1:  I used my glimmer foiling machine to do a letterpress with the foiling plate. I inked up the plate with Speckled Egg distress oxide, I also did the same for the sentiment. I added two Tim Holtz Butterflies.

Card 2:  I inked the edges of the butterflies with distress oxides. I die cut a circle and overlapped it on the edge of the card, trimming of the excess. The sentiment is from the Stamp Market.

Card 3:  I die cut the poinsettias and put them back into the cut outs. I added some Spun Sugar inked card underneath. The poinsettia centres are cut from a Spellbinders set and inked. The sentiments from the Stamp Market.

WOW Sonia,  all 3 of your cards are stunning,  I love all 3 designs,  using the Glimmer machine for Letterpressing gives such an amazing effect, I will definitely be giving that a try.  

The second card is such a simple design but my goodness it looks amazing! 

Now I had a sneek peek at this card earlier in the week,  I have been dying to see the whole card, I can confirm that it was worth the wait!! It's so lovely Sonia 😍

Thank you so much for three beautiful, inspirational cards XXX

Sue
