Wendy's Thursday Live Challenge.

Easel Card

I used, again some heavy weight chocolate brown ribbed card stock for the base card, lace backing papers from Joanna Sheen's lace paper pad. Papers are matted onto metallic bronze linen textured card stock. The Whimsical image was stamped by a friend so i don't know its name. The giant flower is from Hot Off The Press, the gem brad,ribbon and buttons are from my stash and the border is a Martha Stuart lace scalloped punch. I also used a brass stencil and run it through my Cuttlebug and added brown ink from Pretty Color for added colour.




Double Tri-Shutter card

I made this double tri-shutter card for a friends anniversary. This is first time i've done a double one and its turned out well don't you think.

Base card is an heavy weight ribbed cardstock in Chocolate brown. The Digital image on the front was a freebie download, can't remember where from..sorry. The papers inside is from my Barely mine Cd Extreme Inserts. I used some ribbon, gems and ink for the edging from my stock also.

Tag card

Some time ago i was asked to make a batch of get well cards for a private hospital card & gift shop. My friend Hilary works there and said i should see if they wanted to sell my cards in their shop. She is going to take a batch in to show them my works. So i've made a start with this one and the one below with the decoupage flower on it.

Here is two more cards I have just made.

This Card i made using the Glitter girls Ring of Fairies CD. I have just bought this cd rom as i was putting it off and just thought i'd get it and see what all the fuss was about. The images are out of this world gorgeous. I love it!!!






This card was made using the New Joanna Sheens Royal Horticultural Society CD Rom.

I'm not really a flowery card person, but seeing the images on this cd rom made me change my mind. The images are stunning on it.

A different style of card.



Well I really can't take the credit for the design of this card, even though i made this card. I saw this style of card on someone else website but can't remember whose it was. I have a vague idea who was the designer but need confirmation. So if the person responsible for designing the shape of card, the please let me know and i'll accredit it to you.




I made this using the Popcorn Christmas CD Rom.
Red Mirri Board, Sticky gems, spotted Ribbon, silver peeloffs coloured in red with permanent marker pens, Green glitter board, and White Hammered Base Card.
