Forever Friends

I've based this card on sketch #88  from Friday Sketches. The DP are from Stampin Up mounted onto SU 'Not Quite Navy' and 'Naturals Ivory' cardstock. The stamped image is from Forever Friends, stamped and coloured with watercolour pencils. I've then cut out and mounted onto card embossed with 'Love Language' cuttlebug folder. The greeting is computer generated and punched with SU oval punches. Added pearls, lace, metal butterfly and flowers. Lined inside of card with DP.

Hope you like.

Celebrate

This lovely cow image is from Penny Black, stamped and embossed with black embossing powder and coloured with copics. Had a bit of trouble with the colouring as the black kept smudging.  The cardstock is from Stampin up and patter paper from Inque Boutique 'Cabana' mini paper stack. Added ribbon, brads and flowers. The 'celebrate' is stamped with my very handy EK Success multi stamp and cut to size.


Thanks for looking.

Happy Valentine's Day

 

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope you've all been very spoilt today with chocolates and flowers.

I've created this card using the Cards for Men Challenge #3. It also fits the Cute Card Thursday  and the Simon Says Stamps challenge theme of 'Love" and the Charisma Cardz Challenge 'Male" . The image is a digi stamp from the George Rock'n'Roll collection from Charmed Cards and Crafts. It reminded of an early day 'Beatle' which is where the "Love me do" idea came from. I've coloured with copics and mounted onto foam dots. The background is made from black cardstock cut to resemble a vinyl record. The pattern papers are from SEI and the cardstock is SU Not Quite Navy and Really Rust. I've used Martha Stewart  heart border punch, Carl music punch and created the greeting on the computer. The greeting, hearts, and music notes have all had SU crystal effects added.

Today is also my DH birthday, so this cards is his valentine and birthday card.

Oh, I was also spoilt with a lovely bunch of roses.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

The Engineer

This card fits the Charisma Cardz Challenge 'Male". I've used a digi stamp called 'the engineer' from Mo's Digital Pencil Too, coloured with copics and mounted layers onto foam dots. The base card is SU basic grey & black card. The pattern paper is from DCWV. Corner pieces were done with the cuttlebug and background embossed with diamond plate folder. Added brads and a stick-on greeting.


Thanks for looking.

Make a Wish

 

My daughter's friend Storm is having a birthday party on Saturday, so how perfect is this image, as the cake has seven candles. The stamp is from Stampavie "Mouse Carrying Cake". I've coloured it with copics, mounted onto SU Rose Red scallop oval. The pattern paper & cardstock is from Stampin Up. The no. 7 is a chipboard number which has been embossed in pink and dazzling diamonds.I've used MS heart border punch which I purchased on the weekend at the papercraft fair in Brisbane. The 'make a wish' stamp is from EK Success and is punched out with SU label punch. Flowers and brads are from my stash and I've added stickles to them to give them some sparkle. Have also added stickles to the streamers and candles. 

Thanks for looking.
