Loss of a beloved dog

 

I was asked to make a card for somebody to give it to a friend that has lost his companion, Barney.

I printed the sentiment and picture. I layered the photo onto red card. I die cut the sentiments using a Presscut oval  and a Sizzix heart die, both of these are from nesting sets. I die cut the red elements using larger dies from the sets. I matt and layered my 8x8in white card with red card and then white card. I added the sentiments to my card and then the image. I printed to dogs not and cut it with an oval die and mounted it onto a red oval before attaching it to my cards. I completed the card with paw prints which I cut with a punch.

A gift for gentleman who is remembering his late wife on her birthday

 

I bought a 12x12in white box frame from "The Range".

I covered the background in pink holographic card. 

Obviously I wanted a picture of a robin because of the sentiment but I didn't want to use something Christmassy. Luckily I had the Crystal Art card in my stash. I mounted the front of the card onto brown card. I added brown satin ribbon across the background before adding the image. I tied a bow using the ribbon and added a pearl embellishment to the centre of the bow. I printed the sentiment and die cut it with a scalloped circle from a Xcut nesting set. This is added to a brown scalloped circle before adding it to my project. I completed the project with some hearts which I cut with a punch.

Personalised Crystal Art Birthday Card

I have matt and layered my A4 card with pink and purple card and then added white card. I have used stamps by Craft Buddy. I stamped elements. I used a scalloped circle by Xcut to cut the teddy and then mounted it onto a pink scalloped circle. I cut the name to size and mounted it onto pink card before attaching it to my card. I stamped the "3" with a Craft Buddy stamp then with a die from "The Works" I mounted that before adding to my creation, The sentiment had been cut using a Crafters Companion die set.

Year 6 School Leavers Memory Book Gift Box

A gift box for my completed Memory Book.

 I have printed elements which include personal details and die cut them with a Presscut oval die from a nesting set, I have mounted that onto a yellow oval before attaching it to the box lid. I printed the primary school badge and the secondary school badge and die cut them both with a Xcut scalloped circle die. I mounted them onto a larger scalloped circle before attaching them to the box lid. 

 

Year 6 Leavers Book Page 13&14

 

Using the colours of the secondary school I have made the finally pages. Using the Memory Book 3 dies I have created the pages and layers for the pages. I created the pocket and and then added the sentiment also cut with a Tonic die. The "Good Luck" was die cut with a Crafters Companion die.  I added the dates to the tags using dies from a Tonic die set. I printed the elements for the final page and then die cut them with dies from the Memory Book collection.

Year 6 Leavers Memory Book pages 11&12

 

I have created these pages by simply added layers cut with the Memory Book dies. To create the pockets I added adhesive to the three sides of the card. I added the tags (cut with Tonic dies) along with embellishments which I found on shop bought cards.

Year 6 Leavers Memory Book page 9 & 10

 

I covered both of these pages with red card. I added the photograph elements and printed the logo of the location of their residential trip and details of the trip which I die cut with a Spellbinders die from a nesting set and mounted it onto a navy shape cut with the next size in the nesting set before attaching it to the page.
