Hello folks!! It's time to get your embellishments out and let us know at
which is your favourite!!
I am not one for a lot of embellishments but if I am feeling in a fancy mood I add ribbon to a card for a bit of interest. It adds a lovely touch to certain designs and still doesn't add too much bulk for posting, as you can see on my card.
Another card without a coloured image, I don't know what is going on lately!! This sweet little fairy and papers came free with a magazine and was perfect to send to a friend for her Birthday. All it needed was a gold mat and my perfectly matching ribbon.
I usually say I am looking forward to the weekend because Martin will be off, and he will be, but I am abandoning the boys and going out on a "jolly" with the girls from work. We are going to Bournemouth to see Mama Mia at the Pavilion. I can't wait!! I love live theatre and it has been far too long since I have been to see a show. It's a matinee performance so I have booked us in for a nice lunch beforehand. We can dance and sing the calories off later!!
Anyway I know it's a bit premature but whatever the weekend has in store for you, I hope it's a good one!!
See you soon xx

You know me and embellishments, but I agree, the odd bow adds a little elegance to a card.The gold mounts add another layer of elegance to your 'freebie' card. :)
What a beautiful image Sarah, your gold mat and pretty pink ribbon is all that was needed to showcase this beauty. Hope you enjoy your weekend.

Hi Sarah,
oh I love this card and that excellent design.
You see my Mum bless her loved fairies and collected everything that came with them on over the years.
So when she passed I couldn't bear to see them go to a charity shop, and now I have faries all over my house of hers, and few of a friends too.
Makes for interesting polishing and dusting, but I just can't part with them.
My only regret is they never released the flower faries for crafting till after her passing as I could have made her some beauties I think like this one you have made.
Enjoy your theatre this weekend.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Such a pretty card Sarah, a beautiful flower fairy and sweet little bow.
I hope you have a lovely time at the theatre.

I've got these too and have made quite a few of them. Your card is very pretty and the ribbon fits perfectly. Enjoy Mama Mia. I was lucky to see it in London many years ago. A great show. Hugs, Carol S.xx

Have fun with the girlies, I reckon that would be a great stage show
What a lovely card Sarah! You can't go wrong with a bit of ribbon on your card. Beautifully tied bow.

I absolutely love this card Sarah. The image is so beautiful and works in perfect harmony with the backing papers, such gorgeous colours too. I think you've embellished it to perfection with the pretty pink ribbon, I love it! Crafty hugs, Sandra x
