Maddie's Birthday Card

Well, Maddie finally reaches the grand old age of 2 today. Here is her Birthday Card, made using Forever Friends papers and a bit of sparkle. I used the sketch from this weeks Papertake Weekly Challenge.

Crafts 4 U

These ATCs are for the Crafts 4 U Christmas Colours Swap.

Rememberance Day

This is a set of 5 ATCs that I have made for a fortnightly swap at my local Craft Central. The theme was "Rememberance Day". I have combined pictures of poppy fields with a soldier silhouette and the words "If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field That is forever England."

Simply Sparkling

Here is my entry for this weeks Papertake Weekly Challenge, entitled "Simply Sparkling".
I have used a Poinsettia stamp that I have had for ages, heat embossed in gold. I then used a clear/white Sakura pen to colour in the leaves, adding red and green glitter before the ink dried. Once the ink had dried I covered it with 3d gloss to add dimension. Finally I mounted onto red and silver as shown.


I have been quite busy today, stepping out of my comfort zone a little bit. I have created this ATC for the Crafts 4 U monthly lottery where the theme was "Distressed". I have tried using a few of the techniques shown on Tim Holtz's November Technique.




I have also made this tag using the same techniques. I am happier with the effect of the inks on the card than on the stampboard used for the ATC.
