Card "Apple Flavor" by Jackie - Ambassador

  Hello there crafters, hope you are enjoying the longer days and warmer weather, I know we are!

I bring "Apple Flavor" from the awesome Mirtillamente store to you today, just because who doesn't love some gorgeous pie and cream?

I coloured the image up with markers, pencils and a white pen. I then used a fabulous paper to create the card base. A die cut flower, leaves and sentiment complete my card!

"So Sorry"

This is present my take on the theme this time at  Cut It Up Challenge. Our theme is "So Sorry" Please enter your makes here.

I seized the chance to create a sympathy card. I dislike crafting these for sad occasions, which is why I maintain a small stockpile. I employed a simple die to produce an exceptionally clean and simple card. The end result is  quite pleasing to me.
