The beauty of Nature

I saw this beautiful image on the CraftsUprint site and loved it so much that I decided to buy it.  I didn't really like the background that came with the image so I added some of my own papers.

I chose one of the papers from the new Stamperia Amazonia collection and after inking all of the edges I backed everything with dark brown card stock.  I used foam pads to adhere the image for dimension, there is also a decoupage layer, I also added a sentiment that came with the image, there are several to chose from.

Play Me

This is the card that I created for my Husband for his Birthday, he quite likes to listen to his vinyl, his record player is a bit more modern than this though.

I used another download from CraftsUprint, I added a few extra layers and changed the sentiment - there are also a few layers of decoupage.

Fashion Essentials

It is my Niece's Birthday next week and this is the card that I created for her.  I have used a kit from craftsUprint called Fashion Essentials.

I printed some extra copies so that I could add a few extra layers of card stock between the background layers, there are also lots of decoupage layers so lots of fussy cutting - I haven't done much fussy cutting lately and I had forgotten how relaxing I find it.

I added a Joanna Sheen die cut sentiment along with a computer generated one, I also applied some Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the pearls and decorated the inside with the insert from the kit and some extra card stock.

Christmas Gifts

I have created this adorable Christmas card for this months Rudolph Days Challenge.

I used a kit from CraftsUprint, I think it is a Di's Digi Designs image.  There are lots of layers of decoupage to fussy cut so I was in my element there -  I printed an additional sheet so that I could add an additional layer.

Everything is included in the kit, even the sentiment - all I have added is some red ribbon.

I would like to enter this card into the March Rudolph Days Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes.

Christmas Robin

I have created this simple Christmas card to enter the January 2018 Rudolph Days Challenge,  as always the theme is Anything Goes as long as it's Christmas.

I have used a kit from Craftsuprint.  I added a couple of layers of mirri card but apart from that this card is quite flat - perfect for posting.

To embellish I die cut a snowflake and added some gold enamel dots.

I would like to enter this card into the January 2018 Rudolph Days Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes.

Anyone for Ice Cream

I think there was a bit of wishful thinking going on when I made this card, I can't wait for ice cream weather to get here - that is until it arrives when I will probably be complaining that it is too hot!

I used a kit from Craftsuprint, there were lots of layers for me to fussy cut and layer up using foam pads for dimension.

I added a couple of layers of pink card stock but everything else was included in the kit.

A Good Friend

Whilst I was over at Craftsuprint looking for a quick card for a young boy I managed to pop a few other designs in my basket and this is one of them - who would think that I am ready for some warmer weather!

This is another kit that contains everything that you need, including decoupage layers.

I added some purple card stock and an extra layer.  I have not added a sentiment as I am not sure who this card is going to be for yet.  I used the insert that is included in the kit to decorate the inside of my card.
