Birthday cards

It will be my grandson's first Birthday in a few wks so i made his card today along with a card from his sister Ellie.











Ellie is only 5 yrs old and she did choose the image herself from a collection of Digi stamps but i had to colour and make the card as she is not here at my place. But she will write on the inside herself when i go over to see them.

A Xmas card for my partner


I made this card yet again on my favourite Board, made for Gary i used some decorative frosty snow from a poundland shop near me in Hanley and this stuff looks like the flowersoft, if you are on a budget like me then it is worth giving this stuff a go and the bag is quite large. I used it to trim round the edges of the Basque.

xmas tree cards

Xmas Tree cards, these are so simple to do, i added a tutorial on how to make the trees a few days ago and i made loads as they were so easy ,
here i have put together 2 simple cards. I hope you enjoy making these quick and simple cards.

For Square card you will need....
Card stock 28cm x 14cm folded in half to form a square,
patterned papers 12.5 cm x 8.5cm and a 12.5cm x 4.5cm (these will be your panels)
Peel offs and a topper, glue whatever your choice, i used a glue stick for patterned papers and wet glue for the topper as it is already dimensial and does not need to be raised unless you want it to be.

For the one below you will need...
A5 card folded in half,
matting card 14cm x 10cm
patterned papers you will need to make 3 squares @ 4cm x 4cm
and 1 panel @ 13cm x 4cm
Topper, peel offs and again glue of your choice.
