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.

Diamond Wedding Anniversary Card



I used a piece of Hunkydory cardstock for the background of this card.  I printed out the sentiment, adding it to the card with a silver frame around.  The flower is made using Spellbinders 'Create a Rose' die, I added a few die cut leaves behind the flower again using spellbinders dies.  I finished off the card by adding a piece of ribbon down the right hand side.

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.

Computer Fun


I used a few patterned papers to build up the background for this card.  I used Spellbinders Majestic Labels 25 to cut the frame for the topper and stamped Lily of the Valleys 'Computer Fun' stamp into the center.  I coloured the image using Spectrum Noir pencils.  I finished off the card by adding a few buttons and a sentiment.
