The Focal Point of the card - Pom Pom's and Posies Collection - Ellie Character project topper sheet - you can find the download on the website here - https://shop.obyd.co.uk/b/dZTin


I also designed a backing paper to go with the topper sheet which you can find here: https://shop.obyd.co.uk/b/I2q7z





Supplies List


The card blank i used is from Crafters Companion you can find it on amazon here: https://amzn.to/46wWmob


The topper and sentiment are from the Ellie Topper sheet - https://shop.obyd.co.uk/b/dZTin


The backing paper can be found here: https://shop.obyd.co.uk/b/I2q7z


The topper project sheet and backing paper was printed onto my favourite printing medium for topper sheets, the 160gsm super smooth printing paper is bright white and it gives a professional finish to the print outs. You can find it here on amazon - https://amzn.to/3YgR12m This ream size is 250 sheets and it works brilliantly with both my inkjet and laser printers and i feel happier knowing that it has been FSC certified. 


The Mirror card i used is from this bundle - https://amzn.to/4dnkBYm


Deep red paper - https://amzn.to/4bZqidD


The beautiful ruby red ribbon is a no1 seller - you can find it here: https://amzn.to/3SqmfjL i love this as one side is has a lustre and the other side is more matte so you can choose which side you want to use. Perfect for cardmaking!! 22m roll and there are lots of lovely colours available on the one listing i used the "wine red" for the card.


I distressed the edges of the backing paper, topper and sentiment with my Hickory smoke mini ink pad from Tim Holtz - https://amzn.to/3SrJI3T i love the colour of this one.. it is much more subtle than my Graphite ones. I like to do this direct from the ink pad but if you are new to this technique you may find using finger daubers easier. You can find a great little set of 10 to try on amazon here: https://amzn.to/3Yhvq9Y


The fancy little gem can be found here in a pack - these are really fancy for your "special cards" https://amzn.to/46tmXCK


I also used some stickles to add some sparkle of the centre of the poinsettias in the backing paper and on the topper - https://amzn.to/3WHzFu8



The leaves are some cut offs from my flower arranging stash

  Let’s Talk About Those Flowers! April 28, 2026 Pretty Carnations Card So Many Questions… Let’s Talk About Those Flowers! 💙🍃 I recently shared a card over on Facebook, and I honestly wasn’t expecting the response it received! I’ve had so many lovely comments, questions, and private messages about how I created the flowers — thank you so much 💙 It has got to the point where it’s just physically impossible to reply to everyone individually, so I thought the easiest (and most helpful!) way would be to put everything together here in a blog post for you.

Flowers have always been a huge part of my life. As a fully qualified florist, I spent many years surrounded by beautiful blooms every single day. Although I hung up the snips from day-to-day shop life quite a while ago, my love for flowers and plants has never gone away.
