Flutterby Love

An image free card, but i love it! DH has been asked to be best man at our friends wedding at this is the card we sent to accept the invitation. I had to slightly change the planned card because the larger swirly stamp ripped, but i don't think this card is a 2nd place replacement. i stamped it in blue, as the theme of the wedding is navy blue. I punched out several butterflies in different shades of blue. To make it ultra glam i added 2 gems to every butterfly and the added random blue and clear gems to the swirls.

more christmas catchup!

I made this card for my mum and dad. I used a Me to You topper and some pink paper from an ancient paper pack i had. I embossed some off white shiny card with snowfall, i backed them both with pink glitter card. I then punched some small and larger snowflakes, added some white glitter ribbon and added a silver greeting from craftwork cards. I finally added 3 gems.

winter sledging

Apologies for the wonk of the photo! this was a difficult decoupage to know what to do with, so i just decided to follow on what it had already started and layer up at 90 degrees. i embossed the white card with snow fall (again) and then added the some paper from the same kit as the topper and greeting. i then layered up on darker blue card, punched out 3 snowflakes and added 3 gems to them.

Only 8 more Christmas cards to go!

snow is falling

Some decoupage for you today. I'm getting bored of typing about Forever Friends, but its not going to end because there is loads left for next year. I was unsure how to use this image because of the arch, but then had a brainwave and embossed some white card with snow fall (invented name!). I found some coordinating paper in the ff set and layered up onto silver mirri card and added a silver greeting.

Santa's littlest helper

Another Christmas card! This was a nice and simple card to make, A pryamage FF topper, layered on a scalloped die cut. The greeting is from the same set as the the topper. I'm not sure where the red polka dot paper is from or the corregated card, but i'm sure you all have these in your stash.
