Just Christmas and Birthday Cards Sketch #54

Been busy beavering away again tonight making a card for the latest Just Christmas and Birthdays Sketch. I used some papers from my WRMK paper stack - fabby pad this and its huge so I am working my way through it. A Chipboard flower was covered in a scrap of paper from the same range and I messed it up so I had to do another one lol. A wee bit of ribbon and a sentiment printed on the pc finished it off.

Now, a question for anyone who reads, I have a cricut, slice, bigshot, etc but you know how it is, I get fed up dragging one or other of them out and cutting an embellie for a card. I am not much of a stamper so don't tend to do much of that - I do have a wee selection of promarkers but can't do them the justice I see all over the internet. What I am looking for, is ideas for quick and easy embellishments, you know ready made kind of things? Any suggestions? I have a stash of paper blossoms, but got kinda bored looking at them too - though it would be a good idea to use up what I do have. Okay I am waffling now, but you get my drift - ideas for ready made embellies, etc. Oh or if anyone could point me in the direction of tutorials for funky diy embellies too.

Thanks for looking and thanks to anyone who can help me.
