Green Bear

Another little card that I achieved by using the CD-ROM for Men from Popcorn Bear

This looks great in real life, the green pearlescent card stock sets off the colours in the topper beautifully.

Blue Bear

I was lucky enough to get hold of the Crafters Companion, Popcorn Bear Trilogy CD-ROM and used the 'Mens' CD to be able to achieve this simple little pyrimage card.

Although I am still trying to get my head around the correct sizes to use for the inserts I think adding them is a very worthwhile task. It give such a nice finish to the card.

Rock 'n' Roll Forever

Another one that I could not have achieved without a little help from Yv. x

This is such a simple card, with the toppers mounted on the the fuscia card blank and a ribbon of pale pink background paper on the side as co-ordination.

Brilliant but simple!

Jukebox Jury

I used some printables that a received from a friend for this card.

I mounted them onto black card stock and used some pale yellow backing paper cut into a 'ribbon' for the co-ordination.

Quite a useful card to add to my store cupboard for an emergency, and something that I could not have done without help from my bloggy friend up-country. Thanks Yv x

Ruby Anniversary Card

With a little bit of help form a wonderful bloggy friend - (you know who you are!) I was able to create this Ruby Anniversary card for Sharon and Mike.

I used a cream pearlescent card blank for the background, and red card stock run through the cuttlebug for the top and bottom border.

The image is where my friend came in, as I had nothing appropriate. This was mounted to create a matt, and layered onto the blank.

I typed the sentiment on the PC and chose a font that worked with the look of the card.

Inside I created an insert using a verse from a website that offers copyright free insert wording ideas. The left hand detail was created using some more red card that I put through my Martha Stewart deep edge cutter, and then attaching the the left of the insert.

I was very pleased with the result and, once I gave it to Sharon, I know she liked it too.

Happy Anniversary to you both. x

Ruby Rose

Our friends Sharon and Mike are celebrating their Ruby Wedding Anniversary on 30 May 2010 and so I made cards for them.

This was a download paper I was given, that I fixed to some ruby red textured card, and cut away the archways

I then layered up the Rose using 3d foam pads and added some gloss using my sakura pen.

When I showed it to Sally-Ann and Mike, they said they would like to give it to Sharon and Mike from them, as they had bought a rose called Happy Anniversary for them.

Very appropriate, we thought.

Very Posh Eh!

This is created from a free download paper I was given.

It is layered up with 3d foam pads, and I used a sakura gel pen to add a little sparkle to the hat pin on the lovely ladies head.
