1920's cards!

Hey all! 

I made quite a few cards last night so here is a short post with the others that I made.

This card is made with the docrafts 1920's themed range and I must admit it makes very grown up cards. I love how you can make very flamboyant but cute cards quickly with this range. Of course I would give this to a female, however you could make one for a male too.

This is the third valentines card I have made and am getting a few comments on them now. I love how the green flower pops out from the background in this design.

Coming up tomorrow is The Shabby Tea Room competition! Can't believe it's been a week already.

Thanks for reading.

All loved up

Good morning all.

Now that the Christmas card making period is over (well for me anyways!), I've decided to turn to the next season, Valentines! 

This morning (around 8am, I'm always up early) I decided to start with two simple forever friends cards. I love docrafts forever friends valentines collection. It's so easy to make simple but striking valentines cards from. 

This simple yet amazing layout was featured in Docrafts Creativity magazine (amazing magazine if you love docrafts products). I had to give it a go with my own twist. Seen as I still haven't got my bigshot die cutting machine yet, the scalloped edges became circles. I also added roses as a loved up touch.

After a little break I also used another pattern to make this design. I'm not too sure on the look of this card, too many sentiments if you ask me. But it was well worth the try.

Have you started your valentines cards yet? Even thought about it yet? I have no idea what to get for my boyfriend, but I do have 2 months to go! 

Thank you for reading!

Little card update!

Hey all! 

Seen as I have my final show tonight, I thought I'd do a small post on the recent cards I have made.

This card was made with a kit from the recent papercraft inspirations magazine. I loved the cute theme of the gingerbread kit that I made all 5 designs! 

I love this card! Inspired by the wonderful Nichol Magourik (http://nicholmagouirk.typepad.com), I decided to try out her wonderful method of glitter backgrounds! So easy to do, check out her blog! 

This is the latest card made for a work mate. It's her sons 30th birthday and he LOVES fish. I decided to make this design for her. I love the simplicity of the design and It works so well! 

Thank you for checking out my cards today!
