Winter can become rather dull, so when Hayley asked for a card for a boy who was turning one earlier this month I decided to got for bright and bold.
I combined some Celebrations DSP with card stock from the Brights family, a big star and some coordinating brads.
If you ever need cheering up I can highly recommend playing with some bight coloured card!
This week, Helena, the Chairman of the West Yorkshire Federation of Women's Institutes, celebrated her 70th birthday.
I was tasked with making the card so I decided to do one similar to my nanna and grandad's 60th wedding anniversary one.
This design just works for me and it's nice and easy to achieve.
I decorated with Pearls to add some glamour.
Here's to many happy returns for Helena!
Before I went home I needed to make a card for my grandma's 80th birthday. She likes pretty things with roses and butterflies and is always in her garden (her strawberries are to die for!) so I went with lots of pink and made the most of the Big Shot and accessories.
Here is what I came up with. I made a blue one to go in my craft fair box as well.
I made the most of the beautiful Springtime Vintage DSP, using a bit for the background and then another cut with the Top Note die on my Big Shot. I trimmed this one down along the perforations and cut another in plain cardstock for the frame.
The butterflies were cut with the Beautiful Wings Embosslit, which I simply adore. I also added some decoration using the Swirls Scribbles die. A few Pearls finished off the butterfly.
The sentiment is from Sincere Salutations, which works just perfectly.
My grandma loved it! I also gave her some yummy smellies made by my friend Sam over at Corsets, Crafts and Cupcakes.
Tomorrow I'll have some Christening pieces to share, with stitching as well as card making, so please come back!
Today's post is dedicated to my good friend Helen. Apparently she reads my blog every day so HELLO!
It was her birthday a couple of weeks ago, and this is the card I made.
I used the Punch Potpourri hostess set, which you can earn FREE by holding a Stampin' Up! party. There are four images and there is a matching punch available for each one, meaning card making is really quick and easy!
So thanks for being awesome Helen!
