Loads of Love – male card November 18, 2009

It’s my Dad’s birthday on Friday, so I’ve made this little card for him ….. he’s got a little ute/small truck but I must admit of used a bit of artistic license on the colour and style of the ute in my card…it doesn’t match his ute at all.

Stamp set : Loads of Love

Ink: Chocolate Chip, Baja Blue, So Saffron,

Card Stock: Chocolate Chip Brocade Blue, Whisper White.

Tools: paper piercer, Aqua Painters, Brads & twine.

I’ve water coloured the ute/truck and used a grey pencil to outline it to give a bit of depth. The Bracade Blue cs has been sponged.

Hope you like it!! (and you to Dad) xx

Bella Rose – Scallop edge daisies November 2, 2009

Hi All,

Well, blogging has been as slow as my card making I’m afraid. It seems my pregnancy tiredness has squeezed out the last few bits of energy I had … the bit I saved for ‘me time’ eg card making.

This is a little card I made for a friend of mine who’s birthday I was so slow on making a card for – I ended up just gave up with the birthday greeting and went the ‘thinking of you’ version instead.

I’ve used the Bella Rose DS paper and scallop punch to make the daisies.. then just cutting into them with craft scissors and added a brad in the center.  A little bit of ink sponging and layering of Very Vanilla & Chocolate Chip card stock – to add a bit of depth and interest.

Email me if wish to buy any of the products I’ve used to make this card.. or if you would like to buy one of the Idea book and Catalogue.
