Happy Mother's Day

So I have finally got around to showing you the card I made for my mum for Mother's Day. I used Lili Of The Valley Bunches of Love stamp and coloured with Copics. Mounted with dark purple paper from the Papermania Capsule Collection and added to base with 3D foam. The bottom layers are all Papermania Capsule Collection and the spotty paper is from the Dovecraft Back To Basics I Collection. Purple twine wrapped around and flower charm attached. Kaisercraft sentiment stamped and an MFT Die-Namics butterfly cut out and Doodlebug Sugar Coating adhered to it. Finished off with a couple of Bazzill Adhesive Jewels.

STAMPS: Lili Of The Valley, Kaisercraft. INK: Memento Tuxedo Black. CS: Anita's, Craftwork cards, Papermania, Dovecraft. TOOLS: My Favourite Things Die-Namics, Copic Markers - bunnies: N1, N2, N3, R81; outfits and flowers: BV00, BV000, BV00, BV11; Grass and flower stems: G21, G40. Shadow: B91.

Apologies for the pretty rubbish photo's. I hope everyone is having a lovely day. It's a bit cold here but not too bad. My back is getting better and I return to work on Wednesday so that's good.

Thanks Dad

I have made this card for my Dad to say thank you for coming round to put up some new lights in my house. The image is from Microsft Clip Art and I have coloured it in with watercolour pencils, cut out and added to the base. The base has been made by layering some Dovecraft paper on to some Bazzill CS. The greeting has been stamped and then cut out into a bookplate, this has been attached with small brads.

Happy Birthday Changito

This card has been made for my grandad, I hope he likes it! I have stamped Changito Solo out with onto white card and coloured using watercolour pencils. I have then mounted him with 3D foam pads to the base. The base has been made by layering up brown CS onto some designer paper and I have stamped the sentiment down the side of the brown card. I have added a photo anchor and brad to finish.

Birthday Wishes

I have just discovered the Kids and Baby Dovecraft Designer Paper Packs! I had bought some of the other decorative type papers but after seeing some lovely cards in the Do Crafts members gallery made with these I feel in love with them! They are so cute! Here are two cards I have made with a sheet from the Kids collection. I have decoupaged the hippo, mouse and star and have added some Stickles coming off of the wand. These are also in the tent topper style (see below post for details on how to make them). The sentiment is printed from my PC.
