Tilly with Rose
It's Annette here today with a Springtime card to cheer me up while the days are still short and dark. This one features Tilly the dog with a HUGE rose. I've kept it kind of simple, but used an oversize sentiment which I think matches the huge image too.
Hope you like my spring fresh card.
All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:
Happy crafting
Annette

Cherry Blossom (& a Little Competition)
Happy Saturday everyone! It's Annette here today to remind you that The Stamp Basket is now stocking Saturated Canary stamps. This was the first non-Christmas card that I've made this year, and I really loved it when I'd finished it. I love the lilac colours and pretty papers.
The pearls in the corner were originally white, but I coloured them with one of my copics (G24) so that they matched my card. I also coloured the pearl in the middle of my brad which holds on my bow.
As it was one of my new year's resolutions, I've also taken the time to do some stitching on my card (and then regretted it as I manoeuvred around the first part of the fancy shaped card base!!! LOL). But overall, I'm really pleased with the finished card. Hope you like her too.
Competition Time:
Before I dash off, I wanted to quickly tell you all that I'm running a little competition on my personal blog.
Some of you might know that I have previously designed and given away lots of freebie sentiments and it's been quite a while since I created any new ones.
That's where I need your help.
I'm looking for some great ideas for sentiments that you'd like to see on future freebies. To enter the competition, and hopefully receive your sentiment in 'ink', pop over to my blog and leave your suggestion(s) on the competition post.
I look forward to seeing your ideas.

There are eight fabulous new stamps to choose from and a gorgeous 6x6 paper pack, Always and Forever. The collection is perfect for all those occasions when you want to send love to someone or show that you care - it could be for a Valentine, anniversary, engagement or Wedding card but we think they will be great for Mothers' Day, birthdays, get well soon and all sorts of other messages besides...

So why not pop over to The Stamp Basket and let us know which is your favourite! The Stamps and papers are already on their way to us and will, hopefully, be with us tomorrow so that shipping can begin on Monday!
In the meatime, enjoy!
Hugs,

Wildflower
Hi all,
I hope you had a lovely day yesterday and that 2013
brings you good health and lots of happiness! Thank you for supporting us
through 2012, we have much appreciated it!
Have you made yourself any papercrafting
New Year’s resolutions? Well, it will probably come as no suprise but mine is to try to do more!! Why not join me on our facebook
page and let me know what your resolutions are, I'd love to hear from you!
I have a small card to show you today…clean and simple
and so incredibly easy and quick to make, I even surprised myself! I think the
longest part was cleaning the stamps afterwards! I made three cards altogether,
all slightly different colours and shades...so one New Year’s resolution kept to already!!
The flower image is one of the Memory Box Whisper Print
designs called ‘Wildflower’...such delicate designs…they remind me so much of
a series of floral stamps made by Hero Arts many years ago…but just right for
quick ’thank you’ or ‘birthday’ cards! This stamp is currently in The Stamp Basket sale so there’s a bargain to be had too!
Hope you have a great day…even if it is the first day
back at work…on the bright side, at least it’s a very shortened week!
Hugs,
Janet xxTuesday, 1 January 2013
