Vintage Floral

I cut half of the front off an 8X8 card blank to make the shape for this card.  I used one of the images from Daphne Brissonet's Card Making Pad 1 for the main topper.  I used a couple of patterned papers for background.

The flowers are made from Dreamee's 3 petal flowers stamp set.  I coloured the flowers with a pink promarker and added a PVA pearl drop into the centre.  The foliage is from Sue Wilson's finishing touches die range - 'Delicate Fronds'.

Inside of the card, layered panel with sentiment.

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.

Love A Cuppa

I've been neglecting my blog since doing revision so I thought I'd share a couple of quick birthday cards I made this week.

Both of these cards are made using Craftwork Cards 'Love A Cuppa' papercraft kit.  The top one is just one sheet of the decorative papers, I cut off the bottom section with the cupcakes and made them into a border across the centre of the card. I added a few bits of Card Candi in the top corner and a sentiment in the opposite corner.  I used a bit of Stickles Glitter on the top of the cupcakes but it hasn't shown up very well in the photos.

Another quick and simple card.  Just a couple of the decorative papers used for the background, one of the toppers in the centre with a sentiment and some flowers added into the corners.  The flowers are made from a couple of Dreamees stamp sets.

MDF Butterfly

A friend of mine is in hospital at the moment so I've made this to send to her as hopefully something a bit cheerful she can put up.  I used the small butterfly MDF plaque from Dreammes to make this decoration.  I covered it over with some decorative papers and added PVA pearls around the outside edge.  The flowers are made from Dreammes stamps - some are from the 3-petalled set and some are from the Ditsy Stitches set.  I added a PVA pearl into the centre of each flower and arranged them over the butterly.  The words are cut out from a stamp I had and are covered over with Glossy Accents.

Baby Girl

The colours haven't photographed very well for this card.  The background is white card with an Indigo Blu swirl stamp stamped over it in Spun Sugar Distress Ink.  I added a border strip across the middle which is again coloured with Spun Sugar with a new baby sentiment stamped across it.  The main image is from last month's Creative Stamping free stamp set which I coloured in using Spectrum Noir pencils.  The flowers are made using the Dreamees '3-petalled flowers' stamps, with a few leaves around and a PVA pearl in the centre.

Wedding Card

I used Spellbinders 'Majestic Labels 25' to make the frame for this card.  I backed it onto silver mirror card so it just showed through the decorations on the corners.  I used the free stamp set from last month's 'Creative Stamping' magazine for the couple in the centre of the frame.  I embossed the image with silver embossing powder.

I used Dreamees '3-petalled flower set' to make the flowers.  I stamped them out using silver embossing powder and added a PVA pear into the centre of the flowers.  I added some swirls behind the flowers using a Memory Box die.  I finished the card by adding PVA pearls round the edge.
