Mother's Day Wildflowers

Morning everyone and welcome to my three new followers.

 

With one week to go until Mother's Day here in the UK I thought I'd better get on and show a couple more cards that I made for the occasion.

Copic UK GDT spot

Hello lovely peeps

I'm thrilled to announce that I am a Guest Designer this month on the Copic UK Facebook page, where you have a chance to win 2 Copic pens in their Anything Goes Challenge (just post something you have coloured with Copic markers).

Bunnies In Love

Hello lovely peeps

I've got a commissioned anniversary card to share with you today, using Bunnies in Love from Lili of the Valley which you can still get as a digi stamp.

Sausage Dog Bridesmaid

Hello lovely peeps



I realized I haven't shared this commissioned wedding card with you yet.  I was asked for a personalised card for the couple's big day in May, possibly featuring a winnebago or a sausage dog (their's was going to be part of the wedding party). Well it was going to be hard to make a winnebago look romantic, so I went with the dog theme.

Make you feel my love

Hello lovely peeps

Just popping in to show you a commissioned wedding card that I made.

My customer wanted the lyrics from 'Make you feel my love' as a background (written by Bob Dylan, sung by Adele) so I added them with the text tool in Craft Artist using Galeforce BTN font and put a 'material' from the Paper Town digikit behind.

Forever Swirls for Leonie

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.

I'm just popping in with one of the cards I made for Leonie last year which made a reappearance on TV during the sale shows in March.

For the swirly layer I ran some peach core-dinations card through Leonie's Forever Swirls embossing folder and sanded the pattern lightly with a sandpaper block.

I die-cut the Big Heart Base from some darker peach card and some patterned script card, then wound some of the swirly bits in between the frame and the centre. The 'Love' die comes with the Funky Heart Base and I cut it from olive green card.

The paper flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the metal charm and pink twine are from The Ribbon Girl

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you enjoy the rest of the Easter weekend.

Robin gift bag

Hello lovely peeps.

I found a lovely card on Pinterest by Minna0402 and it inspired me to do something similar with some kraft paper bags that I bought last month for decorating.

First I stamped the snowbird (Stampendous) onto Kraft card with Black Archival Ink and coloured it in with my new Gansai Tambi paints

I used some Artemio stamps and Timber Brown Stazon to add some interest around the edges

and then splattered on white acrylic paint to make it look snowy.
I attached a snowflake charm (Dovecraft) by wrapping white twine around and then matted and layered onto a Kraft bag with red and white card

It's finished off with a Christmassy red bow and some white pine sprig die-cuts (Impression Obsession)
