ReplyDeleteGood afternoon Janine,
ReplyDeleteYour card is adoreable flower, she looks so cute and i have already went up on to CC site to see if it is in stock(which it is) for me to order, although i wish that i could colour as well as you do as that, to me is what makes the card shine, it's colouring in. It is a well balanced in design and in the colours that you have used. Thank you for letting us into your crafty mind,

ReplyDeleteHello Janine, I am new to your blog but have ticked the follow section, I love seeing all the design teams creations, I never even knew that you all had blogs, but that is rectified now as am following all of them.
ReplyDeleteNow to your card, well she is such a little cutie, what a stunning keepsake this is for a very luck little girl.
I know everyone wants to win something in the blog hop, and I am no exception, but I must admit I am a sucker for embossing folders and CC's ones are brilliant, especially through the Gemini.
Good luck to everyone
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
