About Me

My name is Natalie and I love anything to do with card/paper. I have been a papercrafter for many years now and I never get bored playing with all the wonderful products available. I've been married to my wonderful husband Nathan for 35years now and we are still very much in love with each other as the first day we met each other. We have 3 wonderful children and 5 gorgeous grandchildren so we have lots to be thankful for. Since joining Stampin' Up! in 2018 I've grown so much in confidence with myself and I even tackle technology, which for me is a huge step to have taken, but I'm getting there slowly.

CCC#9 - Edens garden



Wow it's November.............. can you believe it, and........... it's time for another colour challenge over on the CCC#9 where this week the colours are........



Now I must say this colour challenge had me scratching my head for a while 😊..... but I got there in the end lol.

So I decided to used the brand new early released 'Eden's Garden' bundle, as it was released for customers to purchase 2nd November along with some papers and gems to go with it. The bundle will be carrying over into the Jan - June mini catalogue, however the papers and gems will not, so you might want to grab these before they go!


My card for this weeks challenge is a side opening card made with basic white thick cardstock. I've used the beautiful border die to die cut the 2 long edges of the white layer and then I've cut myself a piece of the paper (which is pear pizzazz in colour) from the 'You're a peach' papers, this is glued flat to the white layer and then the whole piece is glued falt to the card front.
I then die cut myself a circle in basic white. All of the foilage has been stamped using all three colours and fussy cut out using my snips. The large flower was inked in pear pizzazz and then using my daubers I inked the other 2 colours where wanted, and then fussy cut this out also. After arranging the pieces and glueing them in place, the flower was attached using dimensionals, the circle was attached to the card front using dimensionals. 
I've then die cut myself two of the beautiful banners, mine aren't as long as the die is, I've just die cut them shorter to fit in the space, I've done one in basic white (stamped the sentiment onto it using merry merlot ink) and the other one is die cut using merry merlot cardstock (this one is attached to the card front using dimensionals and a bit of glue), I then glued the white banner on top. Three of the gorgeous grape gems were attached to the card and that was me done!
I love how this flower looks when stamped out its so beautiful!
Hopefully you will find time to hop onto the CCC#9 and see what everyone else has made and even join in with the challenge yourself, it's such fun using colours that we wouldn't usually think of putting together.

Until next time
Huge Crafty hugs
