Happy 50th Adele

Hello Friends,
Today I am featuring the card we gave our Niece for her 50th Birthday.  I made a Fence/Tent card and decorated the front with Daisies using the Medium Daisy Punch. I sponged the centers of the flowers and cut one in half to create the turned back flower effect. The stems and leaves were stamped and fussy cut.  I finished off the card front with gold faceted gems, brushed metallic butterflies and linen twine.

Happy 50th Micki

Hello Friends,
Today I am posting a Fence/Split/Lattice/Tent card I made for my lovely Hairdresser Micki.  I love this version of these cards and how much the receiver enjoys them too.  I embossed the fence pieces with the Pinewood Planks E/Folder and shaped the top of the posts to a point.  The flowers were water coloured with Reinkers Poppy Parade, Real Red and Cherry Cobbler and I used Mossy Meadow and Old Olive for the leaves.  The Pearls were coloured with a Copic Marker.  The Sentiment was stamped and cut with an Oval Punch and matted with a Scallop Oval Punch.  Hope you like it too!

Natasha's Birthday 2023 - Fence/Split/Lattice Card/Tent Card

Hello Friends,
My first attempt at a Fence/Split/Lattice Card/Tent Card which I made for my daughter's birthday. I made the base first and then decorated it.  The Wisteria Flowers were cut using White Basic card, smooshed into Bashful Blue, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather ink.  The leaves are cut from Pear Pizzazz.  Most of the fence and Highland Heather card was embossed with the Subtle E/Folder.
I used Designer Paper for the inside panel behind the fence and Highland Heather for the front panel.  The sentiment was stamped with Gorgeous Grape, punched out with the Oval Punch and a Scalloped edges oval for the mat in Highland Heather.
Thanks for your visit today, lovely to see you here.

Happy Mother's Day

Hello Friends,
This is one of the cards I made for a Friend.  I used a thin Basic White folded card for the front, stamping the flowers on the front piece after removing the stamp from the Hollyhock Wheel.  I then stamped the house and gate on scraps and cut them out removing the little girl that was standing at the gate.  Everthing was coloured with Stampin' Up Markers and an Aqua Painter.   The Background was stamped and the sky watercoloured with the smooshing technique.  I added the Mother's Day Sentiment and the Mini Crystal for the door.  I also used a Clear Wink of Stella Brush on the roof and windows of the house.
Thanks for stopping by today, wonderful to see you here.
