Baby card


Another request for a Baby girl card. I sometimes struggle to think of something completely different when I'm making more than card for the same person. 

I have used a 8x8in white card and covered it with patterned paper. I die cut the baby shoes using Marianne dies and mounted then on a piece of embossed white card. I embossed the white card with a Crafts Too embossing folder. I mounted the embossed card on pink card. I die cut the little elements using Sue Wilson dies. I die cut the ribbon elements using Die'sire dies and then threaded pink satin ribbon through them before attaching them to my card. I then added the banner and sentiment both  cut with Sue Wilson dies. I completed my card with Tonic Nuvo drops.

This card is for my DT post at craftyhazelnutspatternedpaper

I then cut a wreath with a Xcut die, I cut the wreath a few times and and layered them together with foam pads.

Bird parchment card


Finally back to crafting............................I had a wonderful week last week. I was cruising to Portugal, Spain and France. My 40th birthday present off my lovely husband. I have finally washed, dried, ironed and packed everything away so I can do some crafting!!


This is my card for my DT post at movingalongwiththetimes. The theme is Birds and Feathers.

I have used my Groovi plates for the designs on my parchment using white parchment paper and rainbow parchment paper. I have used a semi circle Pergamano piercing tool  to go around the rainbow circle, In each semi circle I have embossed a white dot and then cut a picot edge with Pergamano scissors. I still need practice with this. I coloured my image with Spectrum Noir pencils. This card is for a man but something completely different to what I usually send, I hope he likes it.

I matt and layered my card with blue card and white embossed card. I embossed the white card using a Crafts Too embossing folder. I added a die cut sentiment. Then completed my card with Tonic Nuvo drops

Shoes card


I have made a circular easel card by folding a piece of card then cutting the circle with the die slightly overlapping the crease. I then folded the top circle in half and placed another circle on the bottom half of the folded circle to create the easel card.

I have coloured the My Besties image with Spectrum Noir pencils then die cut it with a Xcut scalloped circle die. I have used an 8x8in white scalloped edge card and matt and layered it with pink and white embossed card. I have die cut a pink scalloped circle to mount the circle including the image. I have die cut some grass with green card, I have added some die cut rabbits and eggs. I added flowers to the grass that I cut with a punch. I added Tonic Nuvo Glitter Accents to the rabbits tails so they would be white. I added flat backed pearls to the flowers and then completed my card with pink Tonic Nuvo drops. 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Tatty Teddy Exploding Box

   

I have made another exploding box. This time for my son's girlfriend to give her Mam for Mother's Day. I have used a Trimcraft Tatty Teddy 8x8in paper pad for paper to cover all the panels of the box. I have used various die cuts to embellish the panels, I included a die cut tag for a message to be handwritten, I used a Joy die to die cut the tag. 

I would like to enter this project into the following challenges:

Mother's Day card


I have made this gate fold card for my Mother-in-law for Mother's Day. I have cut into both sides of the front with a Tonic die. I covered the back and the sides with Centura Pearl card in Teal. I die cut the flowers in the teal card too. I printed the personalised sentiment and die cut it with a Joy tag cutting die. I embellished my card with ribbon and flat backed pearls.
