A happy occasion .....

My friend Joy needed a wedding card for her partner's niece, and she asked me if I could make one for her.

We also had a belated family birthday catch-up for Mr Fixit's birthday, my birthday, niece Lauren's birthday, Lucas' & Archie's birthday - a lot of chocolate, cake & champagne for that one :)

 
here is the card I made for Mr Fixit's birthday - a new stamp (for me) from Kaszazz with the obligatory kindy glitz!

I already posted Archie's birthday card earlier, but here it is now to refresh your memory
1st Birthday Card

Here is the card I gave to Lauren

This card was a CraftMad swap card - it was in my box of goodies, just waiting for the perfect person to give it to :)

and here is the card I made for Lucas

3rd Birthday Card

This is a 3-D card made of multiple layers - graphics are by Janet Briggs from Crafts-U-Print.

Well, that's it from me for a little while :)

Thank you for visiting my blog today - I hope you have a good day.

Where has the time gone?

My last post was in April!

I haven't done much cardmaking in that time - just a few for swaps and close friends.

I did a card swap in May for my CraftMad friends - the theme was polka dots :)

For You

Camera Card

The above camera card was made using a digital file from CraftsUPrint

Sadly, I was in need of a Sympathy card for a friend

Sympathy Card

I used the emboss resist method, using white embossing powder and added colour using watercolour pencils and inks in places.

I think I like the effect and look forward to working on this method a bit more :)

Linking this card with:
As You Like It Challenge - Favourite Die
My favourite dies are my Deckle Edge collection - it adds just that nice bit of interest to a square/rectangle shape :)
The ABC Challenge - just as you like it
Anything goes - which is perfect inspiration to try something new!
