This is a small pic of my card for my husband's 60th birthday in a couple of weeks.  This is my first attempt at this type of card and I'm really pleased with the result.

I used white line embossed card for the shirt and plain black card for the jacket.  The bow is made with Crafters Companion template and the pocket is a Spellbinders die.

Long Time No Post . . .

Good Afternoon on what has been a lovely Autumn day here in Merseyside.  I've been very busy here over the past 12 months and even though have been crafting daily, I've not had time to upload any recent makes to my blog.

I will, later on today, post some pics of some of my most recent makes (some of which are Christmas orders !!!) and hopefully get back into blogging at least twice weekly.

Santa carrying Presents

This Christmas card made using one of my favourite images.  Santa from the Nitwits collection.  Fantastic images and backing papers.  Glitter glue added and embellishments.

Pop Up Box for a Christening

Another lovely pop up box card for a little boy's Christening. Elements from Forever Friends.  Very simple to do but very effective and eye catching.

Christmas Angel Blue

A Christmas Card using a lovely angel image from Joanna Sheene, muted blues and ribbon and glitter glue to add shimmer.

Frame Card

I've made several of these frame box cards, you can have them as stand alone cards . . .
or use as a wall hanging with ribbon added.  This one is using First Edition papers in a lovely muted pale green colour.   Wink of Stella  pen added for glitter.

Tote Bags

Scruffy Little Cat Imagery from Crafters Companion.  These make lovely tote bags for the girls.  Many different designs all finished with glitter/pearl etc embellishments.

                                     Blond hair on this one with buttons and pearls added.

 

This one uses Crafters Companion Imagery again . . .
