Bears in a spin

Hello Bloggers

Today I felt like getting back to a girlie card and using a few of the lovely flowers and embellishments I just e received from the Ribbon Girl. Also of course I had to have a go with my wonderful free gifts from Papercraft inspirations this month, my LOTV bonnets and bowties pad and Happy Birthday Stamp. So the Ribbon Girls Lovely Lilli competion seemed the idea reason to create a card especially as I just love using my lovely LOTV posy trio stamps and my so cute James Daisy stamp.



I saw a spinning wheel on th internet the other day and fancied having a go at one and the posy trio stamps were perfect for this type of project. I decided to set the wheel into a twisted easel card.


Just got these lovely flowers from the ribbon girl which matched perfectly, they are an excellent site and so quick on despatch.  Also they supply small quantities so you can try lots of different items for little cost. I simply can't recomend them enough, and they do the most marvellous lace and charms too.


I coloured James in Grey this time with my spectrum noir pens


 My lovely free gift from papercraft inspirations which I have wanted for ages as I do so many Birthday cards


My first ever Pin, with a charm from the ribbon girl, thought it marched the daisy on the stamp.I coloured thr two top parts of the pin with alcohol pens to get it to match better.  However I think I need some spacer beads for my pin and some silver rather than bronze jump rings. Still not bad for my first pin I hope.






The Bears in Motion, I stamped all three and another sentiment stamp from LOTV
The view from above, showing how the stamp holds up the easel card, just love my new papers and can't believe it was free.

Hope you like my project, if you want to have a go here is a link to a video that shows how to do it.

      Dear Shell, thank your for bringing that to my attention. I tried several times to enter but unfortunately the link didn't seem to be working so didn't add the link to my blog. It appears that one of my attempts was successful and my entry is now on your site, and I have now placed the link.

    How pretty. Just love all those gorgeous colours together. Have never seen a spinning wheel card made before and to add to an easel card is even more of a twist. I love your idea. Thanks for the link and thankyou for fluttering by my bingo challenge. Hope to see you again . Hugs Mrs A. (Butterfly challenge).
