Benidorm Theme

Hi,
My post for today is a special order recently taken......
This was for a person's birthday, that was going on holiday to Benidorm, and her friend had been teasing her about the venue, so therefore she asked me to make one with this theme.
The main card is an A5 landscape card and l sourced the images and then took them into my Serif
programme and made the backing paper using the stamp mode and the altered the transparent level.
Made the two toppers in two different sizes and matt and layered to give lift, then added the Happy Birthday peel-off.    My customer was well pleased with the finished card.
Thank you for stopping by and l look forward to reading your comments.

Christening Crib

Hi,
For todays post l have chose this crib l made a white ago for a special order.....
The template l used is one of Arty Farty's and was made all in white card, fabric and lace, trimmed with tiny pink roses. These can be quite time consuming, but very satisfying in the completion.
I also included the small teddy for effect. The box was also made from the same template, with an acetate front with the name banner across.
Hope you have enjoyed viewing this as it is quite different from cards, look forward to reading your comments....Thank you.

In the Tree

Hi, here's my post for today....
I came across this decoupage sheet in my stash and had completely forgotten about it, as we all do l think, so l made up this quick little card. I chose to use a A6 card this time, landscape position, and after matting and layering onto different patterned paper, l then placed upon half of a doily. The small tag on the top right is black so can be personalised. A quick simple card, and will be priced very reasonable for my stall.
Thank you for stopping by please leave me your comments.

Sheila and Marks Anniversary

Good Morning.....
Here's my card for today, l made it for my best friends Silver Anniversary
For this card l chose to use my newly purchased Tonic dies, and after finding out her wedding day colours this is the finished card. The fold itself is explained in the photo, and of course l included silver mirror card and her wedding colours were pink in white, with white heather and tartan. I hadn't got any tartan ribbon within my stash so l coloured some red and white gingham ribbon with one of my green Promarkers and it worked, looked very similar to tartan.
Hope you have enjoyed stopping by look forward to seeing your comments...Thank You

Mothers Day card

Hi there you lovely people....
My post for today is the card l made for my Mum for Mothers Day, now don't giggle on seeing my photo as a baby......
The card itself is a 8 x 8 scalloped square card and for the main background l chose the blue card and embossed with the small dotty folder. I then used some Centura pearl card and used one of Tonics dies and also cut out the heart, l then placed the photo behind. Used the waste hearts for embellishment and then attached the small tag topped with the bow.
She absolutely loved it and it brought tears, which l thought it would do.
Many thanks for stopping by and l look forward to seeing your comments.

Greg's Birthday

Well todays card is quite different....
I made this for my son-in-law's birthday, tho l don't refer him to my in-law, just as another son....
as he is a rugby fan and was at the time following the 6 nations cup l chose to make it in that theme.
The main card is a 8 x 8 red small scalloped card, and the pictures l used were "sourced" and then l went into my digi-designer and made the background paper, and the toppers. These were then matted and layered first onto white then onto some red card to give lift, nothing more to be said really, just that he was over the moon with it and was very impressed, some my job was done.
