I just LOVE how the 5-petal flower punch fits beautifully with the new Fancy Flower XL punch. I can see this becoming a recurring theme on my cards!
Hope you're having a happy day. I had a lovely mini-golf, and hot chocolate / cafe latte, date with my littlest man this morning, while his big brother was at cricket training - such a nice way to spend the morning!
I love those beautiful Spring colours! I'm with you on the whole sewing machine thing!
ReplyDeleteGreat card, pretty colours! Haven't tried out my new fancy flower punch yet, but so glad to see it coordinates nicely with the 5 petal punch. Sounds like you had a lovely start to the day :o)

Another oh-so-gorgeous card, Christine. And now I have 3 more things to add to my list for Sept 1...**sigh**. Seeya Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteChristine, what a lovely card. I have that 5 petal punch and it's never quite 'worked' for me but I love how you've layered it with the big flower. I'll have to give that a try now.
ReplyDeleteLove the flower Christine - the two go together oh so beautifully ... definitely taking a leaflet out of your book for this one ... love your card!!
ReplyDeleteLovely Colours Christine. Can't wait for the new catalogue

Really pretty card Christine. Love your soft background stamping, the flower you have created & the yummy colour combo! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is such a beautiful card Christine, and you're right - those punches look great together!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty - love those colours!!!
ReplyDeleteOh dear... now you've given me more punch ideas! They do look fabulous together. :-) Gorgeous card, as always!
ReplyDeletewelcome to spring, love the new DSP
ReplyDeleteA really beautiful card, kind of wish you hadn't given me a good reason to buy another punch though.
ReplyDeleteI was honestly thinking I didn't need that flower punch until you showed me how great it was!
Thanks for inspiring and enabling me.
