A Hug is Like a Boomerang ... You Get it Back Right Away

Hi Ya's!!!  Are you shocked to see me again this week?  Well .. you're not alone .. I'm shocked too.  lol!!!  Hope you are all having a beautiful week so far .. and heading off into a fun weekend.  :)

Well, the idea of making a "non-square" card is pretty much non existent in my square box frame of mind.  lol!  So when the ideas of doing something other than a square came into conversation .. a sort of little PANIC filled me.  haha!!  But .. I must say .. I've admired the way all you crafters out there do those shaped cards .. it's appealing! 

The person that came to mind was sweet Debbie .. yup .. you all know her .. the amazing one!  :)  I love the way she does her shaped projects (well actually ALL her projects shaped or not!), and I went straight to her for my inspiration!  Thank you so very much Debbie!

So, here I've used Lili of the Valley's "Kitten Cuddles" .. I love them!!!  So darling this image right?



Did you all get your fill on LOTV'S newest sweet release?  And they even have new gorgeous paper packs too!!!   Go ahead .. treat yourselves!!  :)  lol!!

Thank you so much for visiting me .. I love it when you do!  I'll see you again soon okay?

Hugs,
Elise

Simply stunning hunny, the shape is amazing, beautiful details and colourwork of course. I have the new stamps, and papers (grin) but I am worried about this image - neither she nor the cat look very happy do they?! Have a super weekend hunny. Hugs Sxx

Love the pins on your card.

Hi Elise,

What a Gorgeous Card!!
Lovely flowers as always, but the shape of your card is just stunning and gives your card a touch of elegance!
You should do this more often, it suits your artwork so well.

And I noticed you colored the whole background too, with makes the image stand out more!
The beading is also Gorgeous! Sigh.

Bye and a big Dutch Hug from the Netherlands,

Marjolein
