Gold Confetti


I used a 12cm square white card blank from Craftwork Cards as the base card and covered the front with some latte gold foiled Confetti paper.  I then stuck a marshmallow Mini Elegant Square to the centre of the card using double sided tape and added a Heartful Flower to the centre of it using foam pads.  The next step was to attach an In Circle Message to marshmallow punched circle and then attach them to the Heartfelt Flower (double sided tape).

Finally I added the two Retro Daisies using foam pads, put Candi in the centre of them and added Glossy Accents to the Candi.

Confetti Gap Card


This was made from two Elegant Rectangles - I scored the back one approximately 3cm front the left hand edge.  Next I layered the ice cream paper onto the latte paper and stuck them onto the front rectangle.  I then cut a section out of the front card as shown, stuck the left hand front piece to the back rectangle (by putting strong double sided tape to the left of the score line) and used a small piece of double sided tape to hold the right hand front piece in place over the back rectangle.

The next step was to stick the two Retro Daisies across the gap using a glue pen (taking care just to put glue on the ends of the petals). To finish off I added Card Candy to the left hand edge and to the centres of the flowers, and then stuck an In Circle Message to a punched scallop circle which I stuck next to the bottom Retro Daisy with foam pads.  Finally I carefully removed the removed the small piece of double sided tape to enable the card to open.

Latte and Ice Cream Elegant Square


I used an Elegant Square card blank from Craftwork Cards for this.   First of all I added a rectangle of latte coloured paper mounted on ice cream paper, then I used foam pads to add the flowers as shown and put mirri gold Card Candy in the centres.

The card is finished off with an In Circle Message on a Heartfelt Message which was stuck to the card with foam pads.

More Confetti and Crystals





This was made using a small square (9.5cm) card blank.  First of all I covered the top section of the card with the latte coloured paper and the bottom section with the marshmallow paper.  Then I cut approximately 1.5cm off the front right hand edge of the card before sticking a 3cm wide strip of ice cream coloured paper to the inside right edge of the card (this doesn't show up too well on the scan).

I punched flowers from the sheet that the In Circle Messages were on, stuck them across the join between the two papers using a glue pen and then put self-adhesive crystals in their centres.

The In Circle message is stuck to a 1 3/8" punched latte circle which in turn is stuck to an ice cream Heartfelt Flower and attached to the card with foam pads.  I attached it so that it overlapped the edge of the card blank to make it a little different.

Confetti and Crystals


This was made using a Craftwork Cards Elegant Rectangle as the base card.  First of all I added the three strips of paper using double sided tape before sticking the marshmallow paper mounted on ice cream paper to the Mini Elegant Rectangle.  I then stuck this to the card using 1mm foam pads. 

Next I punched a circle from marshmallow card, stuck the In Circle Message to the centre and then stuck both on the Heartfelt Flower.  I used 2mm foam pads to mount this on the card apart from in the area where the Heartfelt Flower overlaps the Mini Elegant square where I used 1mm pads - this meant that the whole of the Heartfelt flower was raised by 2mm - if I had used 2mm pads on the overlap the Heartfelt flower wouldn't be level.

I didn't have any card to match the In Circle Message so punched the flowers from the edges of the In Circle Message sheet - fortunately the flower is only small.  I used a glue pen to stick the 3 flowers onto the Mini Elegant square and then put self-adhesive crystals in the centres.

Latte Handbag


For this card I used a Latte coloured handbag card from Craftwork Cards and added three strips of Confetti paper.  Then I added a Die Cut Daisy with a Card Candy centre to the middle strip along with two pieces of Card Candy at each end.

I stuck an In Circle Message to the centre of a scallop circle, punched a hole at the top and threaded grosgrain ribbon through it before tying it round the handle of the card.

Confetti for a change ...


This was made using a DL card blank.  I used double sided tape to fasten the papers onto the card and also used double sided tape to stick grosgrain ribbon across the join.

I then stuck a Heartfelt Flower to a Mini Elegant Square using double sided tape before adding two Petal Point Flowers with foam pads and Card Candy to the corners of the square and centre of the flower.  Finally I stuck an In Circle Message to a punched scallop circle and used foam pads to stick it to the bottom right hand corner.

Handbags at Dawn


I chose a marshmallow handbag blank for this card and added a strip of marshmallow Confetti paper mounted on ice cream Confetti paper.  I then added the die cut daisies - the outside two overlapped the edges so I trimmed off the excess.  Finally I added Card Candy to the centres of the daisies.

And again ...


I used a white card blank for this and added Confetti papers from Craftwork Cards.  The die cut flowers are from the most recent Craftwork Cards Flower store - they have Card Candy centres and I also added Card Candy to the diagonally opposite edges.

Confetti Yet Again


This card hasn't scanned very well - there are two other pieces of doily above and below the latte coloured one but they are very pale and aren't showing up.  I think I will try to photograph the card and see if that gives a better image.

I used a DL card blank for the base.  Then I cut a latte coloured doily in half and an ice cream one in half then in half again.  I stuck the two pieces of ice cream doily in the corners and three strips of ice cream Confetti paper across the card.  Then I stuck the latte piece of doily against the centre of the left hand edge of the card.

I added Card Candy to the latte coloured doily and to the top right corner of the card.  Finally I used a Heartfelt Flower with an In Circle message to finish off the card.

Just Because


I've used the new Confetti collection from Craftwork Cards yet again for this card.  The base card is an Elegant Rectangle scored down the centre.  I added a piece of latte coloured paper foiled in gold before using foam pads to stick down the die cut daisy and the Petal Point flowers, all of which have Card Candy centres.

Finally I stuck an In Circle message to a Heartfelt Flower and mounted this onto the card using foam pads for dimension.

Confetti Collection Again


I've used Confetti papers from Craftwork Cards again on this card along with one the Confetti Doilies which I cut in half and then in half again before sticking to diagonally opposite corners of the card.   I used foam pads to stick die cut daisies onto the doilies and also put a piece of Card Candy into the centre of each daisy.

Finally I added three more pieces of Card Candy to the top and bottom strips of paper.

Thinking of You


Here is another card using Elegant Rectangles and Confetti papers from Craftwork Cards.  I mounted a strip of latte coloured paper onto marshmallow paper and stuck both across the front of the card.  Then I added two die cut daisies with Card Candy in the centres and used a Heartfelt Flower in the middle of the two daisies with an In Circle message in its centre - simples!

Best Wishes


Here is another card which I have made using the new Confetti collection from Craftwork Cards.

I started with a pearlescent white card blank and added the latte and marshmallow papers to it, tying the ribbon around the marshmallow paper before sticking it down.  I attached the bottom two Petal Point Flowers with a glue pen so that they were flat on the card.  Then I used foam pads to add the top two which gave the card dimension.  To finish off both flowers I added a piece of marshmallow Card Candy.

I stuck an In Circle message to the centre of a Heartfelt Flower using double sided tabe and then used foam pads to adhere it to the card.

Confetti


I used two Elegant Rectangles from Craftwork Cards as the base for this.  The papers are from the Craftwork Cards Confetti collection which was launched recently and the flowers are from their most recent Flower Store.  I stuck the bottom flower of each pair to the card using a glue pen and then used foam pads to stick the top flowers on before adding a piece of Card Candy to the centre of each.

To finish off I punched a scalloped oval and added an oval message to the centre of it.

Happy Birthday


Here is my first birthday card of 2011. I have used a DL card blank covered with Confetti papers from Craftwork Cards.  The Petal Point Flowers and Heartfelt Flower are also from Craftwork Cards and I added a piece of Card Candy to the centre.

The join between the two papers is covered with cream grosgrain ribbon and I used a Craftwork Cards Elegance Message to finish off the card.

The Confetti papers are really lovely and are also available foiled in white.  Although I didn't use any on this card there are also some fabulous Mini Elegant Squares which are part of this collection.
