Mother's Day Cards to share...

Well, good evening all... Yep, now that I'm back at work, this is the time I get to craft. It is wonderful and peaceful... Kendall is studying for her Conveyancing exam next Wednesday... please hold thumbs for her... so I quickly put 2 Mother's Day cards together, as I need to take them to work tomorrow for 2 clients...

This is such good practice for me... I couldn't do anything else at this short notice but make 2 C&S cards again... hope you like them as much as I enjoyed making them.  Thanks to my regular blogfriends that visit, your comments are so encouraging...

The DP is so lovely, I have left this as the main focus.  Don't you just love that lace... remember a while back I mentioned that I had some pink lace, well here it is.  As you can see very clean and simple lines.  The sentiment is the main focus too.

I've also kept the inside decoration to the minimum, just enough to compliment the outside.  There are my butterflies again, they make such a lovely focal point.

I found this scalloped cardstock whilst rummaging through my stash and decided to use if for my second card.  Wish I'd bought some more, but they only had this colour. Will have to check with Maryke from Scrap's Delight, as this is where I purchased it from.  Once again, the sentiment is the focal point and I got an opportunity to make the double bow again.  How did yours go Lynn?

A side view pic to give you a peek of the inside. Also kept this simple and added to circles to compliment the patterned paper on the outside and added a butterfly where the 2 circles join.

Thanks so much for popping by and do leave a comment if you have the time, as I really appreciate them.  A warm welcome to my new followers, always nice seeing a new face amongst my Creative Friends on top.

I've still got to make my GDT card for Totally Gorjuss, so let me get back to the craft table... nighty night all !  hugs Sharon x

Practising my C&S cards...

Good evening friends... it is way past my bedtime again and here I am still at the computer...  I've been browsing through an awesome blog and taken in a lot and couldn't wait to try my hand at another Clean & Simple creation... am I a sucker or what ?? I WILL master this, I tell you.... LOL  Just give me time to practice aLOT more...LOL 

So, here's my little creation, which I made this evening, just for the fun of it... hope you like it...
Are you impressed with my double bow?  Thought I'd try it out.  As the card is on the small side, I couldn't go too big... but this was only a practice session after all (wink wink)

No image, just a lovely Thank You sentiment...  I'm quite happy with the result and can't wait to try making a few more.  Thanks for the lovely comments received on my previous post.  As a few of you have asked, my client was most impressed with the cards... wonder what she'd think of this one ?  LOL

Thanks for popping by, now it really is time for me to hit the sack.  Good night all and sleep tight.  Chat soon, hugs Sharon x
