Sadly I have had several friends loose loved ones this week and didn't have any bereavement cards. I spent a day creating these to send to them.

I used the Bloomin Heart thinlit die. I just love this die. Its so versatile. I tried it in a variety of ways including watercolouring. What do you think of the results?

I attended a class the other night with a group of friends and this is what we made using the Nice Cuppa stampset and Cups and Kettles matching framelits.

I have decided to use one of these as my mothers day card for my mother in law.

They were great fun to put together and I was really pleased with the result.

Do you like revisiting memories or images from the past? I have loved using a fussy cut image from the Home for Christmas Designer Series Paper. It so reminds me of bambi. I am trying to think up other ideas for using them.

This card was made using a card from a retired kit, cherry cobler cardstock,silver cord, Merry moments designer series paper silver glimmer paper and fussy cut holly and bambi from Home for Christmas DSP. Click link for product list

I have had so much fun using items from my stash and combining it with my new purchases!!! I find actually starting is the most difficult. What about you? Here are the results of just having a go. For this card I used a card from a retired kit, and teamed it up with cherry cobbler and whisper white matt boards, a fussy cut flower from the Home for Xmas Designer Series Paper, gold cord and rhinestones
