1st Birthday - Clarice

This is a card I recently made for a collegue's niece - this travelled all the way to South Africa !  The image was a free stamp from a recent magazine, coloured with promarkers.  A length of velvety pink ribbon and some cute buttons finished it off nicely.

First Ever Blog Challenge Entry

I'm being brave and entering a card into a blog challenge for the first time. which is quite fitting as it's for the first challenge on Indigoblu. The main image and background are both stamped in Peacock Feathers distress ink. The flower is made from acetate, inks and tissue paper - a technique I saw Kay demonstrate a couple of years ago.

Very Classy

I wanted a change from the usual flowers and this Hunkydory image was just the thing !

Making use of some free stamps

I received these lovely stamps in a recent magazine, with some matching paper and a touch of guilding flakes I'm very pleased with the end result.

Home Sweet Home

A quick Tando kit - simple but effective !

Some recent makes !

Not a very good picture but this is the card I made for my mother-in laws birthday - my first go at making my own paper flowers for a card.

and also a note book and picture I've decorated with paint, velum flowers and gold leaf.

Special Delivery This my favourite card of the ones I've made recently - this was for a collegue who has just had a new baby daughter.

I used a Lili of the Valley stamp, Special Delivery, coloured with promarkers.
