Together ............

Cute Card Thursday have the theme "Out With The Old" as this weeks challenge, they want to see you using some of your old stash  

I snagged this image a while ago from Arthurs Clip Art site and loved it.

I have coloured the image with my Promarkers and added Aqua glitter to the rain and puddles

The hearts were cut on my Bug with the Hearts and Stamps Die that I have had for ages and ages so this could be my OLD stash. I wasn't sure about using yellow for hearts but it kinda works? anyway I jazzed them up with a lickety spit of glitter.

The Design Paper is called Retro something or other (oops forgot and don't have packaging)

I designed the word art on my lap top 

The ribbon is some old stash too

Although this card is kinda romantic I didn't want it too fussy  or girly as i'm gonna give it him indoors 

Hope he doesn't mind the glitter ;0) 

Sketch Saturday Sketch 45 My Easter Bunny

Over on Sketch Saturdays Blog the sketch this week has been provided by Tracie it's a lovely simple sketch, just what I like lol. I needed an Easter card so decided to theme this card for that purpose. I wanted a cute bunny but did not have a stamp so I drew it by hand, not bad for a beginner hey? I coloured it with my Whispers Markers (I now wish I had watercoloured instead!) I'm not too sure what make the DP is all I know that It is called Plaid. I used a clear sakura to make the bunnies nose have an embossed feel. I used a Fiskars punch for the scalloped ribbon and flowers and pearls are from stash.

Why not pop over to Sketch Saturday and check out the super DT's creations

PS....I have scanned the bunny into my computer and you can now download the image HERE ;0) I hope you have fun using the Digi Stamp.

A Birthday Gift

Hi,

I thought I would show you the note card set I made for my partner's step mum. I got the inspiration from Mel Stampz Blog, see link over there ---->I made up the bag as per the template and then cuttlebugged a coordinating pink paper and cut to size and adhered to the front of the bag. I added some pink ribbon and a few little gems. The flowers are from my stash. the Note Cards are approx 4x4" and I used the same Cuttlebug embossing folder on them as I did for the front of the bag. I used a pretty floral decoupage sheet I picked up in town to finish off the cards.

Here Is the Birthday Card that I made for her. The shape of the card is taken from the new Nesties Lable Dies that are out and I so want LOL. I Printed the pattern onto the card then cut the shape from a template I had earlier made. As the card has to be folded and I wanted the shape to follow on all sides I cut a matching piece from the card and to add some interest I cut the straight edge with shaping scissors and then punched with a ribbon threading punch and threaded the red ribbon. I then watercoloured the little hedgie and used nesties to cut and emboss the card and then mounted him on to the card. I added flowers from my stash and a rub on sentiment.
