"April Flowers" Blooms

Hi, A few days ago, Scrappy-Go-Lucky's awesome "April Flowers Competition" was announced - win your very own CRICUT IMAGINE. Today's "Two Up Tuesday" on Scrappy-Go-Lucky features some flowers Alyssa and I created for Mandy.


These are Alyssa's - I think they resemble some type of bottlebrush flower.


She worked on these all afternoon, colouring each flower centre with a Lemon Spica pen and then glueing them on.


Here's a photo of the leftover cardstock - she's going to use it as backgrounds for some cards.


These are my blooms - I loved using the colour combo of brown, green and turquoise.


Pipe cleaners, wire, and florist tape was used for the branches.


Apart from the pinecones, everything is cut from the Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge. I used Puffy Velvet pens on the petal edges and the stamens - and loved the end result.


I found the cut for the pine-cones on Gypsy Font - and of course, had to add some glitter somewhere.


This is my Baby's Breath - I "borrowed" some of Alyssa's leftover flowers.


I hope these have inspired you. For more photos, and all entry details for the "April Flowers Competition", head over to Scrappy-Go-Lucky.

Till next time,
Luv, Tereesa & Alyssa.

Mandy's Birthday

Hi Friends, Mandy celebrated her birthday last week, so today I thought I'd show you the card I made for her; which was recently featured at Scrappy-Go-Lucky. I’ve really enjoyed exploring the different posssibilities with the Imagine and decided that I wanted to use flowers from the Mother’s Day Bouquet cartridge combined with the gorgeous paper patterns from the Imagine cartridges. 90% of this card is made with Core-dinations White cardstock - the colours and patterns were added with the Imagine.


Some of the beautiful flowers from the "Mother's Day Bouquet" cartridge.


I love all the different shapes.


And this gorgeous birdcage is from "Serenade".


A beautiful background doiley.


Clear embossing was used to alter the look of this plain cardstock.


Here is the completed easel card.


For more photos and full instructions, along with some tips for getting the most out of your Imagine, head over to Scrappy-Go-Lucky.

We also had a birthday to celebrate on the weekend - Alyssa turned 11. All she wanted was to eat out at a restaurant, so it was a celebration to be able to get her out and about for a few hours. Check back tomorrow for some photos of her special day.

Take care,
Luv, Tereesa.
