Congratulations Cards

I had printed these images before my printer went dry. I had been given them by a friend and wanted to make use of them a few more times as they are so lovely

By only using the words Congratulations, I have left the door open for them to be used as a Wedding card or an Engagement card. The appropriate wording can be added to the insert, once it is needed.


Back in Time - A speedy card

Backing paper and peel offs is all this card took, and although its what I call a 'cop out' card, as there is very little involved in creating it, the effect is quite good.

When I first started to card make this is pretty much the sort of thing that I created. All it needs is a name adding to it and it's ready to go.

Thanks

I had this lovely pastel green polka dot paper left from a previous project and decided that it went well with my flutterby's and dragonfly's.
A dot of glitter glue on the flutterby's body was the finishing touch.

The Love Bug

You can't live in Cornwall, and not do a card like this at some point - I love them.... they look so effective in reality.

Flutterby Love





I want my printer ink ..... Please deliver it soon! LOL

Simple variations

So.... I'm still without my printer ink as it's not arrived yet, and and so, I'm using more embellishments and papers up that I already have.

I think maybe that the lilac backing papers I used across the centre of the cards is a little too close a match to the backing card, but they are still quite effective.

3 Times Dolly Daydream

My printer ink ran out! Horror of horrors. And so I had to amuse myself with the oddments that I already have in my craft box.
These cute little dollies are part of the result, amongst many others.
I had 3 of them left, and therefore made variations on a theme for each card.
They are sweet little cards - lovely for a little girl, and believe it or not, I've already sold one so they must be OK LOL!
