Gorjuss girl in a Hat

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

Well the weather has finally cleared up here, most of the day has been full of rain. I hope you have had a good day whatever the weather has been like for you.

Just before I went on holiday I was very lucky to receive a parcel of goodies from the Docrafts Bloggers outreach program. I have already made some Christmas cards and shared them with you (there will be more to come). This little decoupage set was in the pack as well.

So today on this wet day I made a 7" x 7" card using the mini Decoupage set by Santoro called The Hatter.


I embossed the teal card with the A4 embossing Large Bed of Roses by Creative expression I inked it with Black Soot Distress ink to tone down the colour of the card. The backing paper had in my stash from another Gorjuss paper set. The ribbon was sent to me as well there are six types of ribbon in the pack. 


This heart I cut with a square die from some packaging that came with one of my sets. It was mounted on black and covered with Glossy Accents. 


This shows the detail of the decoupage she is very pretty. To match the the flowers in the image I used a Spellbinder die to cut a poppy. 


I have been making a lot of cards without sentiments lately. This gives me a bit more flexibility if I haven't made the card with someone or something in mind. 

Here is a link to the Docrafts site where you can find out where to get this delightful set. 


I would like to enter this card into challenge 45 at Creative Craft Cottage

Happy Crafting 

Hugs Jackie
