The Daisy Card


This is a card I made whilst up in the loft one day, It is in my box waiting to have a recipient,

 

To create this card I have used the gorgeous Daisy from sugar nellie coloured in with spectrum noir pens,
I think the backing paper is from a dovecrafts pack but am not sure,
The leaves, corner and roses were cut on my craft robo,
The flourish is a sizzix die and I added a bit of bling from my stash,

I would like to enter it into the following challenges,

Tim Holtz the Journey Stamps,
Gold mirror card,
and buttons from stash

The Born to Ride Card

This is the card I made for one of Andy's friends who has just turned 50, The brief was he likes bikes, so I went with this great digital image,


This is a fantastic image from Karens Doodles called "Born to Ride" ,  I do love him, he has been coloured in with spectrum noir pens and I have added glossy accents to any thing that looked like it should be chrome, I matt and layered him on to an old map and just added a bit of ribbon and some buttons to finish him off.

I would like to enter him into the following challenges,

The Pink and Lemon Card

My lovely children (well my husband really) brought me some of the gorgeous first edition papers for Mothers Day, I had them early and decided to make My Mum's Mothers day card with some of them,


To create the card I have used,
The sweet blossom image from Wee Stamps coloured in with Spectrum Nior pens,
The papers are from first edition spring drop,
the roses were created using my craft robo,
the butterflies are a martha stuart punch,  the corners are a marianne die, and the flourish is from sizzix,
the sentiment was a freebie from Nettie and the leaves are a xcut punch,
