Anniversary


I used Spellbinders 'Romantic Rose' die set to make this card.  I used the largest die to create the card blank and cut the two smaller frames to build up the rest of the card.  I added a sentiment plaque into the centre of the card.


I used Spellbinders 'Bitty Blossoms' to make the roses around the frame, adding a bit of foliage behind the flowers.

Honey Bear


I used House Mouse Gruffies stamps for this card.  I stamped the bear from the 'Thanks A Bunch' stamp set and coloured him in using Spectrum Noir pencils.  I used a selection of patterned papers from 'My Minds Eye' to make the background for the card, adding a stamped sentiment and a few pieces of Card Candi to finish off the card.

Diamond Wedding Anniversary Card


This is the front view of the card.  I used Sue Wilson's 'Lyra' die to create the borders on the gatefold.  I added a few roses made using Spellbinders 'Bitty Blossoms' dies and added a ribbon which goes right round the card to tie it closed.




For the centre of the card I used a Crafts Too embossing folder, adding a PVA pearl into each of the crosses.  I printed out the sentiment and die cut it using the Spellbinders 'Romantic Rose' frame die.

Anniversary Card




This card is for my sister's first wedding anniversary.  I cut Sue Wilson's 'Lyra' die out of a piece of plain white card and mounted a piece of red card behind to make the background for the card.  I used a rose stamp by Kanban for the main topper which I coloured using Promarkers.  I added a sentiment stamp from Lily of the Valley and a few PVA pearl drops to finish off the card.

Nature


This card has been made for my brother's birthday.  He works in a nature reserve so I went with that theme for the card.  I stamped some grass and butterflies onto Kraft card for the bottom half of the card and added a piece of patterned paper for the top half.  I used Clarity's Kingfisher stamp for the main topper which I coloured in using Spectrum Noir pencils.  I added some PVA pearl drops round the outside of the topper.  Finished off with a sentiment flag.

On Your Wedding


I used an Indigo Blu swirl stamp with Spun Sugar Distress Ink on the background of this card.  I cut a frame from Sue Wilson's Caribbean Background Dies and added some silver mirror card behind.  I stamped my sentiment using silver embossing powder into the middle of the frame and added some flowers made from Dreamees stamps around the outside.  Finished off with some card candi in the corners of the card.
