Love a duck

 Spring has arrived, and the ducks are busy….

I’ve a few cards to share today.

First card is a fancy fold, that stands firm.

These are very simple, using the lovely designer paper….

SU Charming Duck Pond

I added some leafy die cuts to this frame…

Take care and see you soon

Water lilies

 Another fairly simple Duck pond, using the DSP, which is quite bright.

I blended a blue background in the centre, creating a waterline, 

with die cut elements from coordinating card

This set has lots of potential for different looks, and I do like watching ducks 😃

I’m taking this to the Allsorts Challenge #802 (anything goes)

and the Snippets Playground #491, as I used lots of paper scraps for the diecuts.

Both challenges have fabulous prizes.

Love a duck!

 Happy Birthday Di!

Oh love a duck, I’ve been paddling water waiting to share this one….

Our blogging friend has a great sense of humour, and can tell the best funny stories,

so I tried to make a card to make her smile 😃 

Yes, it’s another paper scene from Charming Duck Pond, but I fussy cut the ducks 🦆 ,

including the “puddle” of water, or rings, trying to camouflage with the picture, 

and representing her family of three, including the one with their bottom up……

hmmmmm  Dudley maybe 🤔😂.

I then had fun making the tag with various die cuts.

Have a great day!

Ducks on vellum

 Today’s card uses the charming duck pond paper again.

These papers are bright, so I thought I’d try to tone it down with a scrap rectangle of vellum.

I used scraps of white for the sentiment label, and the teeny waterlily flowers, top left.

The duck was cut from one of the papers too.

I’m sneaking into to the Snippets Playground challenge #486 before the gates clang shut!

Have a good day

Charming Duck Pond

 Hello, I’ve a few cards to share using the Charming Duck Pond.

I shared some of the paper with a friend, and fell in love with the suite.

The first one is similar to a sample in the catalogue.

The die cut frame does a lot of the work…

I’m entering this into the Allsorts Challenge “summer”

and Just Us Girls “frame”

Then I simply used the paper as the main feature, adding a few other elements to a sentiment label…

I added a few sequins too…

I’m entering this one into Seize the Birthday challenge “critters”

It’s getting a bit too warm here in Kent, so I hope you’re keeping cool.

Me, I'm going to be in the craft room, with the fan on!

Hope you have a lovely day
