Crafty Indidvuals....

Afternoon to you all, normally I work an extra day this week at work ready for Easter but having been feeling as rough as I do I have had the day off, mind you I have had to go to the doctors twice and for another flippin' blood test at the hospital, can't see why I keep getting sent there for more tests as they always come back icky, the Doctor said I have 2 gall stones, an icky liver which needs further investigation and I've got to have a CT scan on my kidneys as they think I might have Kidney stones now but they are not sure, every time I go they find something else wrong with me, blood pressure is still high but I'm waiting for the hospital to send me another appointment for that.......time for a holiday me thinks. Thank goodness I'm off for three days at the weekend after I have finished icing all those Easter Eggs for the Easter Bunny.

Anyway on to todays card, I have seen these pop up cards out there in blogland and thought I would have a go at making one, the challenge at Crafty Individuals this month is Natures Beauty and was a perfect excuse to get out all my stamps and have a play, the stamps I have used are..... CI 206, flower heads, CI-407 Sentiments, CI-347 Butterfly panel, The Dragonfly CI-033,  was embossed using Platinum Wow powder onto a coloured background, I then rubbed Stardust stickles over it for the sparkle and the bird is  CI_378. Music stamp CI-309 and the lady is CI-108. The flowers were stamped onto one of the papers from The Sprintime book 3 and then the centres were then sprinkled with beadazzles Tu Tu. onto glossy accents. The sentiment I embossed onto Vellum in white and then I coloured the back to give a soft subtle colour through it.The other images have all been coloured in with Prismas.
Don't forget you still have over a week to join in the challenge and every entry gets a discount code for 25% off any order at Crafty Individuals, and being as the weather forecast is not good for Sunday its a perfect excuse for crafting and eating Easter Eggs.....at the same time, yum yum.

  2. Awesome make of this pop-up card. I've seen many of them but yours is the first "non-cute" version. Love all those CI elements, a beautiful garden scene with fairy, very magical. Have a happy Easter and take care.
    Hugs, Katie

  9. Sorry to read that you have to undergo more tests. It can be so draining having to undergo test after test.
    This is absolutely delightful, it is full of nature's beauty and full of beautiful Springtime colours.
    Take good care of yourself.
