Lollipop, Lollipop...

Morning,
Just thought I would take a leaf out of Emmas book and start today's post with a sing song :0) plus my kids love that Dell ad! well, I have made a couple of lollipop cards (well that's what I'm calling them, not sure if that is correct??) O.K. so lots of piccies today, you have been warned! rofl!
First up is a card made using "Good Friend" in Regal Rose and Brocade Blue.

I stamped the 'flower' heads and then cut them out but to finish I inked the edges using a sponge ('cause I didn't want the white edge to show),


Stems stamped in Certainly Celery using the trusty Stamp-a-ma-jig, flowers added with dimensionals,

Ribbon is Rose Red double stitched grosgrain, isn't it yummy? topped with a layer of Certainly Celery 5/8"
---------------------------------------
Next card is much the same but with a So Saffron and Perfect Plum colour combo (loving this combo)
Right, I'll be honest this blank started out as a mistake, I picked up this piece of card and thought "perfect width" once I had scored it I realised it was not the perfect length!! anyway I like the end result with the little strip! so a "Happy Accident" as some telly people say!!
Here I have done much the same design with the flowers except I used Old Olive for the stems,

Which goes lovely with the matching ribbon, and a last dimensional shot.
I hope you like today's cards and I hope you will visit again tomorrow when I will share with you a card using the "All in the Family Accessories" set.
Happy Wednesday!
Hugs Sarah-Jane xx

    These cards are FAB - I love everything about them - the colours, the ribbon (looks really tricky)and the gorgeous lollipop flowers are my fave.
