Wedding Day Wishes

I made this card for a friend who will be attending a wedding in the Caribbean. It was originally going to be a white on white card, but I happened to try this paper from an old Basic Grey collection and loved it. The sentiment was computer printed and looking at it now the word day should have had an initial capital. O well I'll know for next time.

You've been on my mind

Quick card made for a colleague who's been off sick for a while.

Quick Birthday Cards

A couple of quick and easy birthday cards, one feminine, one masculine. One Pinterest inspired, the other from a Papercrafts Magazine masculine cards special issue.

90th Birthday Card

I recently received a commission to make four personalised,easel cards for use as table decorations at a 90th birthday party. They had seen the card I made for my friend Peggy's 90th Birthday and wanted something similar in gold and white and peach and white. I was quite pleased with the end result and fortunately so were they.

Tag

Quite pleased with how this came out except I wish that I had just gone with the pearls and not used the sequins. Sentiment is by Lily of Valley, the biggest rose made with Spellbinders Rose Creations, others are MFT rolled roses, embossing folder Anna Griffin.

Jewellery Making Interview

Just a quick note to say that I did a blog interview on my Polymer Clay jewellery for Nicky of Spiral Fountain Jewellery, and if you're interested you can check it out here.  Nicky is a fellow Folksy seller who creates fascinating wire jewellery, so why not pay her store a visit while you're at it.

CAS Baby Card

One of the girls at church  recently had a baby boy so I thought  I'd  make a quick and easy card for her. I used an old Angel Company stamp set which I think is really cute, coloured with Coloursoft pencils. I don't have a good selection of heart dies I've realised, I had to trace and cut the middle size one by hand! Very old school :)

Another Mini Set

 Using a Phil Martin stamp set and some Spellbinders dies. Happy Christmas.

Classic Black and White

You might have noticed that I like making sets of cards.  On this set I've used a Sue Wilson, Creative Expressions die set that I bought at the last Alexandra Palace show and have only just got round to using. The stamps are by Verve Stamps and although the cards are relatively simple, I think they're quite elegant. I also made a little box to put them in.

Christmas Banner

Bit of a struggle to get this photographed but I hope you get the idea of it. I cut the banner and the letters on my Silhouette, the medallion is a Sizzix die, the doily is a die but I can't remember who makes it. I'm pleased with how it turned out.
