JUST BECAUSE

Hi all, firstly I would like to thank you all so much for your lovely comments while I have not really been around
I have two shares for you today both a card and gift bag.
My first show is a card I made recently using one of my old Sugar Nellie stamps this one is called Daisy, I have coloured her with my usual markers, the papers are from a 12" x 12" pad that I got from the Range they are all double sided which worked well with this particular design.
I was watching Ann-Marie from Hunkydory on Create and Craft and saw her make a card with the cut and pulled back centre.
I really liked it and this is what I came up with, I used pink enamel dots on the corners, the flowers are Dreamees all stamped with TH Vintage Photo Ink then cut out, they look different because I actually pleated two of them, I then added clear beads in a bottle that come out white but turns clear when dried, they actually took on the colour of the papers.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:



My second share is a gift bag that my son asked me to make, I watched some YT videos and saw this particular bag that was so easy I gave it ago.
I used a 12" x 12" papers, I used my scalloped punch on the top then added a double organza pink ribbon the oval was done with one of my dies.
The image is once again an Elisabeth Bell digi called Easter Cutie, I coloured her with Copics then cut her out with one of my new Tattered Lace Oval die the pink also is part of the set, I then added another Tattered Lace circle die, the Daisies are die cut with a pink flower pearl for their centres then finally I punched out a butterfly.  This was filled with mini chocolate chickens and bunnies then my son gave it to his girlfriend for Easter.
I would like to enter my gift bag into the following challenges:

Love how you did this pulled back section on the card, looks so cool. Those flowers are wonderful too and as usual love your coloured image. Isn't she the cutest, looks like she is really pondering life doesn't she.
