Graduation Time

It is graduation time here and my daughters have friends who they wanted to give cards to.
For this card I stamped onto white card and matted it onto the fleur de lis nestabilities, the cap was popped out with foam dots and finished it with ribbon and black gems.
In side I added the die cut the word graduation and the you did it stamp.
This card was a combination of Birthday and graduation. The Hero Arts Poppies were stamped with black ink and embossed with stardust embossing powder. 

and inside I once again use the fleur de lis die and along with the fleur de lis border die and the sizzix graduation die. The stamps are from studio G.

Have a great day

New house

Todays card is something different from xmas cards for a change, but I really need to get back to Christmas cards as I am so far behind. This card was requested by my daughter for a friend who has moved into a new house.
I just love these cute critters from Penny Black, they seem to suit any occasion. My sketch layout out is from splitcoast stampers SCS361. The text was computer generated and that along with the image were cut out with nestabilities, the edges were then sponged for a softer effect. Pearls and gems were added for some bling.

Gliding By

I made this card for my friends daughter who is having her first white Christmas overseas. The Paper Pretties image was cut out and matted using some nestabilities dies and the snowflakes surrounding the girl were made using the hero arts and sizzix stamp and die set. I also used the martha stewart border punch, snowflake stickers and gems for the centre of some snowflakes.

I wanted a bright page this designer paper is just perfect, I coloured the balloons to match the extra balloon and presents on the left were highlighted with dimensional magic. The ribbon and thread were white, I coloured them with my copics, this is great for matching ribbon to any designer paper.
