Square 14cm card:

Orange quility card stock from the paper mill. Papers are from http://pinkpetticoat.co.uk printed on quility coloured paper instead of white for a change, felt it needed more colour and my printer is really playing up lately with the full colour printouts so came up with this idea. I like how it turned out the colours look stunning. The image is a bella image sent to me by a friend very few left. I coloured her with promarkers. Layered the sentiment on a panal made from the extra card and paper left over from main card sentiment done using word on the computer and a fancy font. Added an orange ribbon for that finishing touch.


Square 14cm green mountain fold card:
Using papermills a4 card stock in a light green shade, mounted pink petticoat papers again printed on darker shade of green heavy paper. Again stunning effect. Layered whiff of joy stamped image coloured in with promarkers on the scrap card from a4 sheet, again for the computer generated sentiment. Not sure if this needs more might add a embellishment under the sentiment.

Square 14cm card:
Using blue hammered card stock cut down to 14cm square, adding the printed pink petticoat papers on coloured paper to front leaving a small border. The flower was made using a number of silk single layered flowers layered over one another then added some sparkle, held together with a head pin and a flower end cap flattened out for the centre, (little bit small but order more big ones) added a dangly heart charm with some light weight chain I had I like these little flowers and hopefully will make more soon. The image was kindly sent to me from a friend she is a Magnolia stamp her name is tilda, coloured her with promarkers highlighting and blending to give the shaded effect, used my large nestie oval die to cut her out edging it with blue chalks which you cant really see in the picture. The sentiment was computor generated.

Aperture card:




This one went a bit wrong, this wasnt meant to be the end result, but never mind looks nice enough.


Using my cuttlebug I cut the window, however it was meant to have the lining paper on the inside behind the window with the window cut out, but the masking tape tore it all grrrrr, so change of plans, using other papers as didnt have anymore greens left lined the back of the inside with this lining up the image with the window, just added a ribbon to the front to give it some dimention. The same thing happened with the other card, didn't have much luck that day so gave up.





Butterfly Birthday card:
Using light weight slightly hammered cream A4 card stock, not really good card for folding the crease seems to be a bit untidy, cut down to 14cm square. Yellow card stock put through the cuttlebug folder, addint the ribbon before I fixed it in place. The butterfly is a large peel off on acetate cut out then fixed using pin flair glue. The sentiment is computer generated. Insert is also been done using hte computer with an image from a digital download.
