Floral Cards

Hello

Hope you are having an enjoyable day.

This first card is a white base layered with patterned paper. The fancy frame, from Marianne Designs, has been die cut in white card and the edges shaded. The centre piece of the frame was die cut and stamped, then layered on top. The flowers are created using Tim Holtz small Tattered Florals dies, shaped and assembled, with the leaves and fixed to the front. Gems and glitter glue were added.

The above two cards are the same card in two colourways. I changed the background die shape, the sentiment and the paper and ink colours. Papers, Stamps and dies from Kaszazz. Stamping was done with Archival ink, the shading with Distress ink, and the die cut birds and paper flowers were coloured with alcohol ink markers.

Gems and Wink of Stella glitter pen completed the designs.

Till next time

Cat Cards featuring Impression Obsession etc Dies...

Hello,

Cats, cats and more cats. Todays cards feature... yes you guessed it ... Cats!!!

I am slowly working through the pile of cards I created using paper pieces from a selection of Kaisercraft Paper Pads. I had many, many small pieces so created some 'backgrounds' for cards by using up the pieces and I am slowly creating cards with these.

The first five cards feature black cats which have been die-cut using Impression Obsession DIE-083K Cats die set...

This pair of cats were die-cut using Marianne Design Collectables COL1344 French Cat Die and stamp set.

I have coated all of the cats with glossy accents for added shine and have also adhered rhinestones to some of the cards.

Thank you for visiting,

See you soon

Pond Cards

Hello

When I saw these frog dies from Marianne design, I had to have them. These are the first lot of cards created with them.

The background papers are a sheet of designs, also from Marianne.

The embossing folder used here is from Darice.

I am fortunate to also have several other dies, from Marianne, IO, and various other brands also along this theme.

All card bases are white. The frogs have all been coated with glossy accents. Highlights have been added with Wink of Stella glitter pens and stickles glitter glue. Rhinestones complete the designs.

These scenes look so peaceful.

Till next time

be happy
