Fairy cards + my own wheat

Good morning Bloggers, I hope you are all well, my arm is virtually back to normal now :o)
I must say welcome to a new follower Freyja, thank you for joining me.
Onto my cards and particularly my wheat LOL. I am so chuffed that I managed to create the wheat from an old CorelDraw 7 image. I bought this version way back about 1997 but I never installed it on this machine. I suddenly thought of an image that I used to make some cards years ago, before I really got started in crafting and would you believe it, I have browsed it for hours and cannot find it. Still, I have found some other cracking images that I can make SCAL files from so I am a happy bunny :o)



The mushrooms are an svg file I found on the internet and I am sorry I cannot remember where. If you know please tell me so I can give credit where it's due.
 I brayered some thin card for the background and used the offcuts to stamp the 
main image. It's the first time these Lindsay Mason stamps have seen ink apart from the sentiment. Main images cut with Nesties :o)

Beautiful Jackie, I really like your wheat! It is so fun to make your own files for use with SCAL, you can do darn near anything! Keep those creative juices flowing! Hugs, J:)

Oh jackie, you are so on to a winner with that wheat, it looks way more original than leaves on a card. Fab work. Thanks for stopping by during the blog hop, I do understand you not joining the hop, I hardly ever take part in them either, so I appreciate all the more you leaving a comment and saying Hi.

I'm amazed by the wheat. It's so think and delicate. I hope you have a computer that is younger than 1997 since I really don't think your computer would recognize the program. I think it is Windows 7 now. I did the same thing once...bought a program, never installed it, then when I tried it was too old...haha Kudos to you for beautiful cards and designing an awesome wheat image in SCAL...I have much difficulty
