Daffodil Delight....so easy!

Hi everyone...wow, it's been so busy around here! I have lots of cards to show you but my camera is broken! 

The lens will only come out a tiny bit so it doesn't even focus.  I took it to the camera shop, thinking maybe they could fix the little lens thingie and no, they said it would be cheaper to buy a new one...sigh...it seems everything is disposable these days. 

So tomorrow we're going camera shopping...my new one has to be super easy to use, I don't like reading instructions, in fact I use them as a last resort!

My card today is such a quick and easy one to do.  I used the retired set Easter Blossoms from the last mini, but you could use the same design with lots of stamp sets. 

I stamped the blossoms in Daffodil Delight on Daffodil Delight cardstock and then stamped a whole sheet of blossoms on white, then cut it into strips for future cards. Then the blossoms are coloured with the Daffodil Delight marker.  Added a bit of ribbon and a sentiment and it's done!

Thanks for stopping by!

Pretty Butterfly

Happy June everyone...I can't believe how fast the time flies by!   It seems that I'm on the go all the time!  We've finally had some nice sunny weather on the west coast although it's been cloudy in between....it just makes me enjoy the beautiful days even more when we have to wait for them!

Here's a quick share for today, it's one of my favourite new sets in the Summer Mini, it's called Strength and Hope...isn't it pretty?  I love it!! 

 

The colours are Tempting Turquoise and Very Vanilla.  I stamped the Very Vanilla with the En Francais background in Crumb Cake and then over stamped the swirls in Tempting Turquoise. 
I addded Turquoise glitter to the butterfly as well as fine wire antenae's.  The label is stamped with the new stamp set from the upcoming catalogue called Four Frames and the sentiment is from Clearly for You...I just love this pretty little set and the little roses and leaves are from the Baby Blossoms stamp set....I can't believe it's now retired.  Love this little set...it's a keeper!
Thanks for stopping by to share your time with me!  Hopefully I'll be blogging more often in the coming weeks!
