It's been a while...

Hey, Terri here!

I know, it's been an absolute age since my last post and I'm sorry about that. I wanted to come here to see if people were still interested in blog posts?!? I currently blog once a week for a UK craft retailer and thought that if people were interested I could start to blog here too. Let me know via the comments below.

In the mean time, here's a post I recently shared elsewhere;

Hello, Terri here! Today I am sharing a vintage inspired gardening card, using Waffle Flower Crafts products.

I started by cutting a piece of Plaid paper from the Favourite Flannel Fall 6x6 paper pad to measure 4" by 5.25". I added some brown ink blending to give an aged look, I then used the edge of my scissors to distress the edges by scrapping at the paper. I also added a small tear in the top right corner. I adhered this to an A2 white note card.

To create the seed packets I die cut the Postage Collage Seeds Details Die into some white cardstock. I added the colouring using the Postage Collage Seeds Details Stencil. I tried to keep the ink blending light and slightly patchy to give a vintage feel.

I added the details to the images with the Postage Collage Seed Details Stamp and Die Combo. I then trimmed the seed packets with a paper trimmer. I added the seed packets to my card base using a combination of wet glue and foam pads.

I stamped a sentiment from the Green Thumb Sentiments Stamp and Die combo in brown ink on to white card and die cut it with the coordinating die. I added this with foam pads over the seed packets. I then decided to add some more fun with the die cut veggies using the Seed Packet Icons die set. I cut then from white card and added ink blending before strategically placing them onto my card.
