WOYWW


So rather my WOYWW I'm showing something that my Hubby is scared will become another addition Orchid plants! After rescuing one (the one in the middle) and it has survived for over a year, he brought me lemon one for Christmas. I managed to snag another from him recently which is the purple one.
Of course the dining room table is home to images I've already coloured and are waiting to be turned into cards. Maybe some post from Simon Says Stamps that hasn't found new homes yet. I'm impressed with myself because the Stamping Up paper  I've matched some bazzill with it so I could scrapbook with it straight away.
No scrapbooking today but do have a couple of quick cards.

This is using the MFT Teapot set comes with stamps and a dies. I've just used the die with some papers that were left over from a card and that was in front of me. I do feel that I needed to mat the large white mat with black card but not a lot I can do about that now that ribbon is well and truly stuck.

Have I confessed to having the repeat order from QVC for some Martha Stewart punches, well if I haven't this is the latest set. I had to use the square anywhere punch, this was punching so much better than the others, since this was the first attempt and it didn't turn out too bad. So I put some pink spotty paper underneath and some daisies using the Woodware Daisy punch. Finishing with the stamping up sentiment, nice and quick.

I seem to have green fingers with orchids too and they love my dining room.I just dont seem to be able to kill them and hubby keeps buying more.I have about 10 and counting. The flowers keep coming back and last for months.
I like todays card too. Very fresh and spring like.

Love both of these. The first one has a few of my favourite things....teapots, teacups, gingham & black & white polka dots. I bought a MS all over page punch, but I returned it cuz it was way too hard to push down on. Looks like yours is working fine. Great job Debby.
Luv, Babs xo

Both cards are great but I just love the teapot one! The verse is just so true.

Your garden is lovely...Your daffodils are just blooming great guns. Our snowdrops are still blooming. crocus started a couple days ago but daffs are just green shoots! I gues that is what happens when you have snow still falling in March.
We had light snow and hail yesterday and today!

Laura said...

Those orchids are fab! Both your cards are gorgeous. You are so good with your colours! The teapot card is particulary cool. thanks for visiting my desk. Flitterglu is made by a company called Indigoblu for using to stamp and then apply guilding flakes. I am looking forward to giving it a go! xx

Beautiful cards!
Debby, can I ask which martha stewart punch you used to punch the background flowers in the second card? A google search is not enlightening me. Ta
