A Liitle princess card I made for my next door neighbours little girls 3rd birthday. The background scene came from the 'Evergreen' cd by Debbi Moore, with a little castle in the background, the sticker is actually one of those wall stickesr from a Disney pack I bought from work. Luckliy I found matching gift wrap to give Zoe the proper Princess treatment.
Quite a plain card craft wise but it was received with wide eyes and a big smile.

This is my dads card for this year, its a photo we took while we were staying at the Stonehenge campsite a couple of years ago, just one of those totally random but unique things you come across when taking your dogs for a walk. I did visit Stonehenge by myself as doggies are not allowed in so Andrew sat in the car with them whilst I wandered round the stone circle taking in the calmness and purity of the stones themselves.
hurrah!! can now comment on other bogs *does happy dance*

I tried changing to the new layout thingymebob but that didn't work. So then I signed out and back in without checking the little 'remember me' box and SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!

testing testing

okay..... this is a test post to see if I can post, have tried commentating on my friends posts and nada.

For my friends birthday in July and also her husbands the same week (and they also got married in the same week as well - no excuse for anyone to forget either celebration *lol*). I made her the card on the left - hubbies is on the right, so when joined up they make quite a romantic scene.

although from the angle of the photo it looks like I'd had a wee drinkeepoo when I took it! (I hadn't!!!!)

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


This card was made for a work colleagues wedding:


when closed



I love this backing paper, I printed it on normal printer paper as I wanted it to retain its 'worn' look, I slightly frayed the gold ribbon to add to the look.


when open


BLING!!!! amd stick on gems! I loved how it turned out.

I also had lots of fun making these atcs for a swap on UKATC - victorian nudes/risque.


(BUSTY) BERTHA - this one is my favourite, it just makes me smile, I accidently ripped her leg off but decided it loked good as it was and left it.



LOLA (SHE WAS A SHOWGIRL) -



PATRICIA (THE STRIPPER)



The birthday card images are off of Debbi Moore's Evergreen cd, the Wedding card off of Glitter & Glitz cd also from Debbi Moore and Bertha, Lola and Patricia are from the art-e-zine website.

Yesterday I had quite a productive day (for me). I ended up doing two birthday cards and three birthday atcs.






this one is for a friend at work who has one of those 0's birthdays this week. I actually intended to do a completely different style of card but didn't like how it was turning out - I was following a project design - so I butchered it and this was the end result. Its from Debbi Moore Desings and from the Evergreen cd.



and this one is for a friend on one of my groups, again from Evergeen. Using offcuts.



I am in love with this cd and the other one I got at the same time - Glitter and Glitz Paris Glamour although I haven't used that one yet as I got some sample papers/toppers in the magazine which I'm going to use first. I have a wedding anniversary coming up so thats going to be perfect for the Paris set.



Bad me watched DM on Create and Craft and now have a list of cd's I want....... christmas presents methinks or though I'm not sure I can wait that long *g*
