Hello Blogland
For my second Quick Makes card I fully utilised the gorgeous design on the paper -
Matting it onto turquoise cardstock, adding Labels Twenty Two (cut down), ribbon, pearl swirl
sentiment and a tiny bird rub-on...finished! Truly a quick make.
I have been asked if I would detail some instructions on how to make my recipe book/holder.
I'm going to do some step shots with a little tutorial and I will post those soon.
Hope you are all having an enjoyable day.
I'm back tomorrow and it is ...Mother's Day!
I did mention to my boys that the best gift they could give me would be tidy rooms..
but I don't think that is going to happen!
Take care,

Hi Christine, how fresh and pretty the card today looks. Great idea for using the label cut down. Hope your boys do you proud with your "mother's day gift". Elizabeth x
Hi Christine. This is another lovely card. Like the way you have used a cut down portion of the label at the bottom and also like the swirl going over the ribbon. Fresh looking colours, gorgeous. Anne x

The paper is gorgeous and the card is fab. Maybe the boys will surprise you! xx
Love todays quick make Christine, the colours look so fresh.
Hi Christine
you say quick card, I say lovely card.
As for the "Boy's untidy room's, make the most of them because believe me, those year's will go by so quickly & they will soon be grown up & leaving home. I'd love to go back to those year's, when our three were growing up & I'd nag them (yes we all do it), to clean up behind them.

Great card today and I can't wait to see the tutorial on how to make the recipe book! My mind is racing thinking of other uses for it!

They're both lovely. I do agree re "tidy rooms", it would be great.
I think your photo does this card more justice than the mag. The card is lovely (even without butterflies - lol). I'm afraid that having brought up 3 boys - it is never going to happen! Sorry.
it's very beautiful

Stunning card Christine. Hope you have a lovely mothers day xx hazel
Hi Christine,
Those Kaisercraft papers would make a lovely mothers day gift !! hint to any offspring they may be reading over my shoulder!!
Hope you have a lovely mothers day and I hope you have some very tidy bedrooms!
My children are taking advantage of the fact that I can't get upstairs....I dread to think what I would find!!!!!
