40th Birthday

My sister asked me to make a 40th card for her sister-in-law's birthday. I liked Jen's SFYTT (sketch for you to try) last week so decided to use that layout for my card. I used an image sent to me by Tracy, which I coloured with pencils. I love this basic grey dp and would use it on every card if I could. The plain cs is from the papermill shop and flowers are from my stash. I used my pc for the sentiment and the adhesive stone is by papermania. Thanks for looking.

Cute Card Thursday

This week's challenge for CCT is to make a card for a child. I stamped the funstamps bear image and coloured him with my pencils adding some stickles to his slippers and ears. The dp is from the glitter stack by DCWV, plain cs from the papermill shop. The sentiment was done on my pc. I used a star punch and circle punch to make the embellishments. Thanks for looking.

Happy Birthday to ME!!

I just wanted to pop on and make a quick post to say a BIG thank you to my blogging friends who have sent me cards etc for my birthday. We're going out for the day but I'll be back later tonight (or possibly tomorrow) to upload some pics and show you a new card or two. Thanks for looking.

18th Birthday Card

Here is an 18th Birthday card that I was asked to make for a friend at work. I used an image kindly sent to me by Tracy (I think, sorry :( I'm trying to be more organised and label my images when I get them now so I don't get mixed up!!). I coloured the image with pencils and used my sakura white gelly roll pen to highlight the pearls. I used my pc for the sentiment and gems and flower from my stash. The brad and sticky ribbon is by papermania. The dp is from a wedding stack by DCWV. Thanks for looking.

Taylored expressions cupcake challenge #23

I was asked to make an anniversary card by a work colleague of my DH's for him to give to his wife. I liked the look of the sketch that Taylor had as her challenge last week so decided to use that for this card. I used a cute Inkadinkado image and coloured it with pencils. The dp is by MOD and the plain green cs is from the papermill shop. I used my pc for the sentiment, a marvy punch for the hearts and papermania adhesive stones on top of the hearts. Thanks for looking.
