16th Birthday Card for Cardiff City supporter


I have printed the image that I found online. I matt and layered my 8x8in card with red card and the white card that has a personalised sentiment. I mounted the image onto matching red card and then added it to my card. I die cut the cup using a Marianne die. I also used Marianne dies to cut the numbers and added them to a die cut shape that I cut with a die from a nesting die set from The Works. I completed my card with stars cut using a punch.

Valentine Gift


This is my project for my DT post at movingalongwiththetimes.

I haven't had a lot going on here for the past few days. I have been busy making wedding place settings, I am waiting for more R.S.V.P's now.

Having a break from them I have made this Valentine's gift:

I have purchased a cheap 8x8in box frame. I have used two different pink card as my background. I used various nesting die sets cutting the same two colours and then patterned paper. I attached the three layers of each shape and then added them to my background. I die cut the banner using a Sue Wilson set and then added Girlfriend and a flower.

My son plans on giving this to his girlfriend for Valentine's Day

Place Setting


The invitations are complete now the bride would like me to do place settings. She knew exactly what she wanted. I covered the front of this cream place setting with lilac card. The same card as I used for the invitations. I printed the guests name onto the cream paper and added it to the place setting. I have been to my local artificial floral supplies to get ribbon to match the lilac card. I added the ribbon across the place setting and then added the pearl heart embellishment to complete
