Hello my friendS!
Todays card goes back to the very faithful black and white, whenever in doubt of colour
go back to black and white! It stands the test of time and never fails to look elegant.
A simple card making good use of M-Bossabilities and Edgeabilities -
all the details can be found here.
Adore the black beaded swirl, in severe danger of adding these to every project right now!
I'm having a big sort out in my craft space so there will be quite a few giveaways coming up,
today I've decided I would like to send out one of my Spellbinders Nestaboard books,
this one...yes it has a swirl!
If you think you would like to give this book a new home, please make sure you are a follower and just leave a comment on this blog post.
Bella will be clocking on for work on Sunday and I will post the winner on Monday morning.
Back tomorrow friends,
this one...yes it has a swirl!

Hiya Christine , the black and white card looks really classy but i think they always do , the book is fabulous ...
ReplyDeleteHugs Sue xx
Hi Christine, Thanks for the chance to win the nestabook. I can't quite believe you are willing to part with it. It is so beautiful & feminine. I particularly love the felt flowers. You are right cutting felt is so addictive & when I saw you cut through with the morriccan dies I was amazed I thought this would be far too intricate. This revelation has opened up so many new possibilities fir my crafting. Thanks again. With Love & Admiration.
ReplyDeleteHi Christine - black and White never seems to fail. Love your card - the flowers are little beauties - love the stampbook too (how generous are you). tfs

Hi Christine,
ReplyDeleteI fell in love with this card when you showed it first on Create & Craft. It is, what I term, an anytime/anyone card. Its clear elegance and stylish simplicity is beautiful.
Thank you for offering up your gorgeous journal for candy, I am certain anyone here would treasure it. For me it would be used to record my thoughts for the day.
Enjoy the rest of the week. Linda

Hi Christine I too am new to both spellbinders and your blog. After watching you work your magic I purchased the grand callibur. So far I have had a fantastic time cutting and embossing, but have brain freeze when putting things together, this is where I am hoping your page can help me. THanks for the inspiration and please put me in with a chance to win, by for now Alma
ReplyDeleteBeautiful projects Christine, the card is lovely!x
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, I too am new to spellbinders and your blog.

Your Black & White card is so elegant, just my style, I'm off to have a try! Saw your demo on the nestaboard books, they're just lovely. Thank you for the opportunity to win, hope Bella is lucky for me! take care Alison :)
