Happy Fathers Day!

This is the card I made for my Dad. Last minute as always! Typical crafter, made it at our Scrapology catch up day yesterday with one if Lynn's new stamps from Lili of the Valley.

 Thanks for the loan Lynn :)

Coloured with my Copics as usual.

Happy Fathers Day to all the Dad's out there! 

I caught a fish....

Mmmmm, not sure why this has come out blurry :(

 

Another decoupage sheet from my collection made into a Father's Day card for a work colleague.

 

 

The eye is covered with glossy accents, the scales scattered with a little glitter.

 

His boots were crackle glazed!

 

Not very good photographs but I'm sure you get the idea.

Sue's 90th

My sister-in-law's Mum turns 90 this month and she asked me to make her a card.

 

I followed my recent trend to use large numbers on the card and created this 90 but cutting 2 layers, one in pink and one in gold mirri to edge and stiffen the papers.

 

 

The papers are from my collection.

 

My favourite Martha Stewart butterfly punch.

 

A double layered bow of seam binding with a gem....

 

And rub-on letters on a lable.

 

A liberal scattering of gems to finish.

 

Happy Birthday Sue, hope you had a lovely party.

Twins :)

A baby card request now for twin girls.

I used Lynn's Lili of the Valley stamps and masked them to sit together.

Created as a 6x6" easel card I cut the image with a nestability with a larger mat in pink.

As I wanted the blanket to extend from the image I cut around that first then slid the die underneath so it did not cut that bit off.

 

 

The papers are from a 6x6" pad, I think Forever Friends.

 

The image was coloured with my Copics.

I added a die cut behind, another of Lynn's and used the co-ordinating border for the stopper.

This had been threaded with ribbon.

 

The word is from Stampin' up curly sentiments (I think it's called).

 

Buttons and gems were added to finish along with some dotty ribbon knotted.

This is how the card looks flat.

 

Thanks for taking the time to look :)

Baby Emelia.

I really enjoyed making this card, another order from work.

I cut the card into a circle and added another circle to the top to create the easel.

A small circle was then cut and edged with glittery lace. 

The white edged circle and strip under the elephant were cut with Sizzix dies borrowed from Lynn.

I threaded the the strip with ribbon and added a bow at one end and a button at the other.

The image is a woodware stamp, coloured with Copics, the ear was decoupaged and studded with diamante.

The inside has a circle cut with a Nestability studded with gems.

The name was stamped using a Clarity Alphabet set and mounted with foam to create the stop.

I added buttons either side too.

This is the card standing.

I hope she likes it :)

Tom's 30th

Another card for work, Lauren's friend Tom who likes "outdoorsy" activities and beer!

I used an 8x8" card again with papers from a recent bargain purchase at Crafts-u-Love.

I like the compass papers with coordinating stripes which are thermo glazed although you can't really see it here.

The 30 was cut with a template and edged with fine-liner pen and liquid pearls.

The image is a Kenny K download which was coloured with my Copics.

I stamped and cut out a compass from Stampin' Up and tied to the 3 with bakers twine then coated with glossy accents.

I hope he enjoys his day.

Champagne for Lindsay

More orders from work - I am being kept nice and busy :)

This one is an 8x8" card using papers from my collection.

The centre panel is Kaisercraft Bonjour collection.

I added some Stampin' Up pleated ribbon down the side.

Some roses and a cherry blossom were added with pins and fern leaves.

The image is a decoupage sheet from the multitude I have filed away - it's good to be using them again!

The letters and numbers are stickers which I have edged with black fine-liner.
