First Day at School card

This card was really quick and easy.

I started with a blank Kraft card and attached some green background paper.

I printed out a calendar and circled the big day, plus inked the edges using Tim Holtz distress ink then stuck to the background.

The apple image was printed out twice and coloured using Letraset Aqua Markers. It was then layered up and stuck onto card using Pinflair Glue Gel to give it some dimension.

The greeting was simply printed from MS Word, edges inked and finished with some adhesive gems.

Thank you card

This card was made by starting with a blank Kraft card and sticking on some pink pearl card as a background.

I stamped a flower image 3 times onto white pearl card using pink ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I trimmed the images down so I ended up with 3 panels of design and used a quickie glue pen and pink glitter for the stamens and flower centres. The panels were stuck onto pink floral paper and attached to the pink pearl background.

The greeting was stamped onto white pearl card, die cut using Spellbinders labels die and the edges inked.

The greeting is attached to the card front by wrapping with bakers twine.

Anniversary Card

This is a very simple card which was made by die cutting circles from patterned papers and sticking them straight onto some white card. I then used some patterned paper to make a 'grass' border at the bottom and drew in the flower 'stems' using a black fineliner pen. The flower centres are buttons with bakers twine threaded through the middle.

The greeting was stamped and cut out, back with pink perl card and covered in Glossy Accents to give it a raised shine.

The whole topper was back with pink pearl card and stuck onto a Kraft card blank.

Anniversary Card

This card was made by punching a border top and bottom of some green paper using a Marthe Stewart flower edge border punch. The green background paper was wrapped with ribbon and stuck to the Kraft card blank.

I ran some white pearlescent card through a Sizzix embossing folder and then die cut using Tim Holtz tattered floral die. The die cuts were then coloured by sponging with Tim Holtz distress inks in various colours. The flower was layered up using Pinflair Glue Gel and stuck to the base card, using a green gem flower for the centre.

The greeting was die cut using Spellbinders label die, greeting stamped on and edges inked with Tim Holtz distress ink.

Card was finished with 3 pink adhesive pearls.
