You may have seen the cards for men I posted last week which were made using Hunkydory toppers. When they asked me to review some of their products I also chose the Amethyst Dreams papers and The Little Book of Garden Treasures. I used both of those to create these 7x7 cards.
I am often asked for cards without cute images, suitable for older ladies. Now my Mum loves cute images but they are not for everyone and these beautiful images really don't need too much embellishing especially if they are used for smaller cards.
The papers are absolutely stunning. However I have to be honest and say the only thing I am not so keen on is that they are shiny and I really prefer matte papers. I have enjoyed working with these and thank Hunkydory for asking me to review them.
I shall be at the hospital craft fair today so a very early start. Up at 5.15 to get ready and load up the car as we get there about 7.30 to set up.

I've been doing a review for Hunkydory too and I wasn't keen on the shiny finish either. It's a pity as the artwork is beautiful and the cards you've made showcase it perfectly.
Two beauties Marianne, I prefer a matt finish too easier to match to the papers
These are beautiful cards Marianne

A gorgeous card and agree with you on the shiny papers. I have a lot of their books I use for my outlet, where I supply with cards. LOTV little books were matt and would be my choice if they came back. Only because of the finish, Hope you did well today. We are at Martham on Saturday. Just hope the weather is a bit better than last Tuesday. Hugs, Carol S.xx
