Kaela's 20th Birthday 2025

Hi Cardmakers,

I made this card for our eldest Granddaughter's 20th Birthday last month.  I used Uniquely Creative's gorgeous Vellum stickers from the Serenity pack on Basic White card.  There are about 10 Stickers on the front of this card, but they blend together so well it is hard to define them. I finished off with a layered die cut Purple foil sentiment and some pearls.  Enjoy!

Craig's Birthday 2025

Hello Crafters,

After watching Lucy Patrick on You Tube using Washi Tape, PET Stickers and a number of Metal dies I was inspired to give the Washi and PET Stickers a try.  This was my first attempt once the products arrived, a big THANK YOU to Lucy for the inspiration.  There will be a few more cards in the future once I have time to put them on my blog. 

The stickers are attached to a mat and then the square hexagon die cuts placed over the top.  The Greeting is layered three times and attached to the center of the card. I love how it came together I hope my Son in Law does too. 

Thanks for dropping in today.

Emily's 80th Birthday Hibiscus Flowers

Hi there,

This is a card I made for Emily to give to a Friend who was turning 80 years old.  I cut the flowers with a die and sponged them with colour applying a slightly darker orange around the edges and Merry Merlot in the centers of each flower.  The larger leaves were also sponged with two shades of green.  The smaller leaves were cut with a die.  The 80 is layered and the top numbers are coloured with a sponge.  I embossed the background matt and then fussy cut the copper foiled sentiment and finished off with the Pearls. 

Thanks for your visit today, lovely to see you here.

Gayle's Birthday

Hello Friends,

Today's card was made for a Friends Birthday today.  I stamped the flowers and birds and coloured them with Copics and Blends. I die cut the birds, but then decided to fussy cut them because I thought it looked better without the white edge. The die cut Birdcage is 2 layers, one in white card and then the gold foil and the Sentiment was Gold Foiled with a Hot Foil plate from Spellbinders and mounted on dimensionals.

Congratulation's

Hello, Happy New Year!

I made this card for a Friend who wanted a Dolphin card to give to someone who finished a renovation to a house near a beach and loves Dolphins.

 

I used designer paper for the background from Stampin' Up's Whale of a Tale Designer Paper collection.  The Dolphins were die cut twice from White card and I sponged the main body piece with Smokey Slate and Basic Grey and then pieced the two die cuts together for some dimension.  The Greeting was stamped with Stazon Black and mounted on Foam Tape and a strip of designer paper was attached to the inside.

Wonderful to see you here, thanks for your visit.
