This great silhouette set is perfect for gardeners, birthday and retirement cards.  It has a wonderful border stamp included, which is great on its own or used to accompany the 'garden' stamp and sentiments in the set.


Here is Heidi's card for today.  She has made a 'stand' card from purple card and a sheet of our 'Little Claire' - 'Ombre' paper stack along with some black punched out butterflies and purple pearls.  These cards fold flat but stand out when upright.

  5. Wonderful card Heidi! This really shows the Ombre paper off to it's best, I didn't realise this is the effect you get with the papers. The image looks so good on this background. Debra x
