parents anniversary card for friday sketchers part 2!

i have been on a role this week!!! trying to get to making christmas cards to stop the rush in december!

i have used a D&D download decoupage, the brown paper is from clare curds big one, the lilac flower paper is from D&D paper collection, the greeting came with the download. the diamentes are from papermania, the sequins and flowers are from lets make cards, ( which i have stopped getting but will miss this little things when they have gone!)

another lot of cards!

Here is a card for my friends 30th birthday (another age surprise!) the 3,0, and the greeting came from hobby craft, i cut the wavy circle using my purple cow circle cutter out of glitter card, i then dry embossed some silver card and put it all together. i neary stuck it onto a white card, but it didn't look right so made a black card to stick it on.

this i a card a made a while ago but forgot about it! it is D&D papers and stickers! i inked the edges of the paper and the greeting. i stuck the bear onto white card and then added the butterfly straight to the paper.

here is a card i have made for my bro and sis in law for their 11yr anniversary, i'm not that happy with it but it is made! the dimensions stickers cam from a do crafts goodie bag and i didn't really know what to do with them, so here you are. they are stuck onto black core dimensions that i sanded with a nail file, unfortunatly i stook it down wonky so used a bit if ribbon to hide it!

friday sketchers challenge

here is my card for the friday sketchers challenge. i had to deviate slightly for the design as i didn't have a small enough oval cutter so used a circle, and needed to add something to the outside corners, i hope that was ok. the stamp is a greeting farm one, coloured in using watercolour pencil crayons. i then used yellow core dimensions card that i tore along the edges, and placed that onto pink tissue paper. the greeting was one i just had in ( from somewhere!) i made the smaller flowers using a gem, a sequin and a die cut flower from lets make cards. i then added the larger flowers which are papermania.

thank you for looking!!

lots of cards!

i have had a lovely weekend makng cards! the only problem was i was full of cold whilst i made them, i'm thankful no one can see me typing my blog because it's not a pretty picture! am going to put them on a few at at time coz i can't put them all in one blog.

Here is a card for our friend who has just moved to his first home, it is a flat but i struggled to find anything for that so used a stamp i alrerady had. i coloured it in using watercolour pencil crayons, and based it on a sketch from friday sketchers, that was a challenge ages ago. the new home is stamped with a papermania alphabet set and coloured in felt tip. the ribbon is from inside a top!

This is for my dad who is turning 60 (what do you mean you already knew?!) i bought the 60 from hobbycraft, and cut a circle using my purple cow cutter, the cut out some stars to finish the card off.

This card is for my Uncle, a sports fan, as you can see i have used an onion stamp from the males set, and i'm not sure where the paper is from- any ideas? i based it on a sketch from the pink elephant challenge blog. it's ok but i'd change it if i were to do it again!

MSE sketch challenge

here is my entry for the latest challenge on MSE.

I used core dimensions for the backing and tore it along the ruler, rather then cutting, some white glitter card, pink wavy card, 2 strips of yellow ribbon, and a 'special' image that i clear embossed twice- i think it makes the image look 'proffesional'. i then went off sketch and added the 6 which is stamped in pink and then embossed in glitter.

the card is for my niece who is going to be 6 surprisingly!

entry for challenge on daisy dandelion and all their friends

hi here is a card i made for this challenge. i really enjoyed making this card. the stamp is a D&D one as the greeting which i attempted to curve. the dotty paper is from claire curds big one pack. the flowers are from a pack i picked up at a craft fair. oh and i embossed both images using glitter powder.

house card

this is a card for sis in law, who has fully extended her house, well husband helped! didn't want to make a new home card so thought this black cat would be good. i bought it from a craft fair 10pish then added the diamentes, the backing paper is from the same stall in a little pack.

2 fathers day cards

well here are 2 cards for fathers day.

the 2nd one is quite plain, coz it's for the in law. husband didn't use to send a card, but since i started making them he wants to send one so i didn't bust a gut but it was a good way back into card making. inside i'm going to write on fathers day.

the 1st one is for my dad, using a special 'rusty' image. coloured in felt tip, stamped all over with a clear pad and them embossed- i do love embossing! i then cut it out and raised it up.
