Thank you card

This card was made by stamping some flower images twice onto white pearl card stock. The flowers were embossed and coloured using Martha Stewart glitter markers. They were then stuck on and layered to give dimension. A sheer green ribbon tied on the side and the greeting stamped directly onto the card front.

Fathers Day Scrap Book

I made this mini scrap book for my Dad this year as a Fathers Day gift. I printed off lots of lovely photos showing Dad and cut them to size, rounding the corners with a Tonic corner punch.

I then printed lots of little Dad sentiments and quotes which I found online.

I played about with the layouts of each page until I was happy with the flow of the book, then stuck everything down onto plain navy card stock.

I embellished some pages with buttons and paper flowers and made tabs for turning the pages from ribbon and due cut labels.

The book is held together by punching holes through each page then threading with ribbon and tying loosely so there is room for the pages to turn.

65th Birthday Card

This card was made using various patterned papers, green ribbon stuck over the join. Then layered die cut labels. The 65 numbers were die cut using the Tim Holtz vintage market die. The greeting along the top was stamped using brown ink.
