for Ivy

Our lovely neighbours recently had their 4th baby, Ivy, she is

the tiniest and most precious little one. 

So.... a card was in the making.

Cut file was designed by my lovely friend Shirley and available

for purchase in her store, which is full of wonders.

Designer papers, rosette made and flowers from

I am roses. [I won these many years ago and love them]

Linking to

I am roses 

Using:

Cherry Blossoms

Daisies

Rose Buds

Enjoy summer

My flowers are from I Am Roses and they are always
so pretty.   I hate to leave them on a card but they
always look too nice to re-cycle onto another.

My Magnolia stamp was coloured with copic markers
a stamp sentiment and dies used.
The card tut was found HERE

floating teacup

One of my blogging buddies calls me the 'frustrated florist', 
I have always loved flowers but was never a florist,
just a registered nurse. This is dedicated for you my friend, Maxine...
[thanks you for the goodies in the mail..♥]

A different kind of 'play' the last few days, making more

flowers and designing my floating teacup.

This does take a bit of pre planning to get the flowers sit

right before hot glueing them onto the saucer.

You also need to weigh down the saucer, I used pebbles from
around my water feature, then hot glued them down.

I have used flowers I made from Foamiran

and several white roses from I am Roses [R21-15 bag]

and a few bits n pieces from my stash.

Die cut butterflies added.
The ytube I used to follow this technique is below......
in case you may like to try it out...
