Teacup Pansies

These are another simple card that I made from a pre-coloured digital download from "Fred, She Said". I need to get some Mother's Day cards to a hospital gift shop and I thought these would work well.

The Set I used for this is called 'Blue Pansies set' and 'Purple Pansies set'. The speckled paper at the bottom of the cards also comes with the download. I cuttlebugged the background paper, used nesties for the focal image and then used my favorite MS border punch and finished them off with some white ribbon.

Gift set

I thought that this set of flower images from 'Fred She Said' would make such a cute little gift set for someone...not sure who will get it yet!

I just made a very simple box with 2 sheets of 8 1/2 x 10 cardstock and scoring it to fit the A2 size card. Added a extra image and some matching ribbon to the front of the box to complete the look.

Simple Mother's Day Card

A hospital gift shop that I make cards for has asked if I would bring some Mother's Day cards in soon, so I thought I would get a start on some. This card was made from another digital download from 'Fred She Said'. The images were already coloured so I just had to make up the layout and choose some matching papers, nice and simple!

I think I will make up a few more of these but using a few different colours!
