Here are a few more cards that I have created since December...
I started to make a lot of boxes prior to December for gift giving... doing the Ag Center market every week prior to Christmas was so very much fun and a busy busy time... I loved it all... This is a medallion on the top of the box... and of course I had all colors for every type of gift giving... not only in Christmas colors...
I even became very engrossed in playing and creating black and white tea bag tiles from my Zentangles... Here is one of the layered boxes... this one only has two layers... but what fun I have had... It is really funny... Men are very drawn to these black and white boxes... Most men will stop and comment on how attractive these are. While the ladies love all the colors and flowers etc... LOL...
Every once in a while I make a card that I really really REALLY LOVE... this is one of those...
Of course the purple is one of my favorite colors... alive and pretty... I wanted to feel the spring in this card... even though it was made in December... I love colors...
There is a circle cut into the card, under the medallion... which by the way is a triple layered medallion and is really puffy... very high... almost 1/2 inch thick...
The ribbon... I dyed some seam binding... LOVE THAT too... have you bought any of that??? and dyed it... I have a bag left from when I would spend hours dying it... and need to add to that... If I could only stop some of the other things I am doing...
Here is the inside of the card...
I think if you look closely you will see that the inside of the circle is also covered with a pretty two layered medallion...
the little faerie is guarding the whole card... with yet another medallion... Do you think I LOVE to create Tea Bag Medallions????? Well you guessed it right...
They say that you should always do things in uneven numbers... so here are three bows... do you have a little bow maker... I don't know how I lived without ONE... love it... thanks again Cheryl Bennett for this lovely gift... I use it almost every day of my life. I also am quite fond of all my punches... and my stamps... this one is a Just Right one..
and a favorite.
This card might look a little washed out.. .but it is just very delicate. The butterfly is three layers also... as it is flying around the flowers... Pink is also another favorite color... as it was my Mom's favorite... she would have loved this card...
Okay... so I will post a few more cards next time... and until then... hope that you also play a little bit, and have a wonderful time doing it... Enjoy your day and play time that you will have.
Love, Light and Peace....Bonnie
Hey Bonnie, been a while since I got round to visit. I can see you are still going non-stop making all these lovely things. I liked all of them, but was especially drawn to the delicate rose card (last one). The others are stunning, but that one just grabbed my heart. TFS & have fun tomorrow. Hugs
ReplyDeleteOh Mary, I love making things... you know that... glad that I had the opportunity to share with you in person some of my addictions...
