Ooops its Wednesday Already

Cant believe we are half way through the week already and I havent posted since Sunday!

Well I have been having a little tidy up of my 'craft stash' - just trying to sort it all out into easy, accessible boxes, sorting my papers out - you know the stuff!!! Its has taken ages.
I sit and moan at my hubby saying that I dont have enough stuff/or I need this and that, but when I started sorting it out i was finding papers, brads, stickers etc that I forgot I had.

So - before i buy any more papers, ribbons, flowers - I am going to start using up the stuff I have already got. So be prepared for some strange creations.

First Up!
This is made using the DCWV Paper Stack - now i only started using this a few weeks back and now I am not that keen on it. I think with this one its more the colours I dont like.
I made a simple frame and covered some flowers in matching papers, and used 3d foam pads on the back.



Now this one - great idea to start with - then down hill from when I stuck the first paper on. Dont know what happened but just didnt turn out the way I wanted it to.
The paper is from my LCS - but I have no idea the make. The flower is cut out from another sheet of the same makers paper. The ribbon was free with a magazine and I also used my Studio G Stamp.



My eldest said she will have this one - because she thinks its strange???? She says the ribbon does funny things to her eyes!

SO as I said there may be some REALLY strange stuff being posted on here - but bear with me as I get rid of my stash.

    I like both cards, but am kinda drawn to the second lol.

    I am working through my stash too, and am trying to resist buying more papers although I really would love to update what I've already got...

  2. Sorry Donna ... but I must be looking at something else 'cos I love them both and can't see what's not to like. NOT that I'm claiming to be any kind of expert but I know what I like ... and I like these LOL!

  3. Both cards look fine to me, but I really like the second one, doesn't do anything funny to my eyes.
