Girly Girl

I thought I would have a change from Christmas cards today and publish this girly card.

I used papers and elements from the NitWit Collections Girly Girl Collection.

Everything is from the collection including the flowers and sentiment, I printed the flowers several times so that I could layer them up and create some dimension.  I cut the scalloped border with a Clearly Besotted die.

Autumn Harvest

I discovered this card that I forgot to post, I know it's a bit late for Autumn but there are still lots of leaves on the trees and we've only just stopped picking runner beans and courgettes!

I used the Graphic 45 - Seasons Collection, all I have done is lightly distress and ink the edges of everything,

There is lots of my favourite fussy cutting and I have used foam pads to add some dimension.

Embroidered Birthday

This is the third card that I have created with this months Craftwork Cards November Stamp Club stamp set, this time I have teamed it up with one of the beautiful Embroidered Blooms papers.

I coloured the stamp with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator pens and then cut it out with a Tattered Lace die.  I drew around the die on some pink card stock to create a mat.

I stamped the 'HAPPY' on a scrap of the pink card stock and fussy cut three of the flowers so that I could overlap the stamped panel.
