Commissioned Card

Afternoon Bloggers,

I am stopping by with a quick post to show you a commissioned card I was asked to make by a neighbour earlier today. The spec was Horse Racing and then 'whipit ricky' somewhere on the card.

Here is what I came up with

It is a 8x8 cardwith a 1/2 fold front. I created the backing papers in Do Crafts digital designer and the images I downloaded from google. I also created the sentiment in Do Crafts designer. Just a simple card and she was really happy with the finished product so thats always a bonus lol

Thanks for stopping by

Bamboo

Afternoon folks,

I thought id share this Bamboo card I made a few weeks ago when I got the Party Paws blockbuster from Crafters Companion. I have used the large decoupage card and rather than having it as a stand alone card I have stuck it to the front of an 8x8 card. 

I used Do Crafts Digital Designer to make the backing paper by using the image off the new digi kits cd rom they have released. I dont have Serif software yet so have been unable to use all the images but thats on my wish list.

Thanks for popping by

Hugs

2 Non religious Christening cards

Afternoon folks, I have 2 non religious chrisenting cards to share with you today. After posting the 1 i did last week I was asked to make a larger version with a me To You teddy image.

This is what I came up with

I have used Do Crafts digital designer to create the decoupage of the Me To You image also from the do crafts cd rom.  I used my Sillhuette to create the circle and scalloped circle then just attached strips of ribbon from my stash. I have used Crafty Emblies wooden buttons with just a bit of ink to soften the edges and I have tied some twine through them.

The same customer asked me to make another Me To You christening card but only a 8x8 card this time

Again I used digital designer to make the pirimage image and the sentiment for the front and the insert. I added some handmade flowers made using the Cherry Lynn medium and small rose dies. The pink backing paper is Co'ordinations tillie dot and the pattern papers is from a 6x6 My Minds Eye spring papers collection.

Thanks for stopping by

DT card for Crafty Emblies - Anything goes challenge

Good evening and Happy Easter

It is currently the Mid way point in our challenge over at Crafty Emblies and this months challenge as with all our challenge from now on our 'Anything Goes'.

I love using these gorgeous wooden emblies on my projects and this card just shows how easy and verstile they really are.

 

I have used a Forever Friends image from the Do Crafts celebration disc and made my own digitage

The backing paper is from the Boofle CD rom and I created the sentiment using Digital designer aswell.

And to finish off this card for my aunt I have used the gorgeous 1# butterfly and some of the equally fab wooden buttons from Crafty Emblies

 

 

All I have done to the buttons is thread some twine through the holes and tied a simple bow but am sure you will agree wether you leave these emblishments as they come or ink them like I have the butterfly they look fab.

You still have plenty of time to join us over at the challenge so please do come and share your creations with us.

Hugs

Couple of cards to share

Good Morning Blog land. I have been busy working on a few cards over the last couple of days so thought I would share them with you.

The first was for a friend of mine for her boyfriend who is a mad F1 fan

The next I made for a friends birthday was just a quick make but I actually really like how its turned out. I have used Do Crafts FF image and made my own pirimage and sentiment. The stamped 'happy birthday' is a circadesign stamp. I have also used Co'ordinations Tillie dot

Next my aunty called me Friday evening and asked would there be any chance I could make her 2 cards by Sunday. She needed a 1st Birthday card for a little boy and a easter card for a very religious friend. Here is what I came up with for her.

 I used a Me To You image from the Do Crafts Cd rom then used digital designer to make my own pirimage. The backing paper is by Kanban that ive had for ages.

I have used gold holligraphic card from my stash and some cream co'ordinations Tillie Dot. I have used a flourish from Crafty Emblies and again I used digital designer to make my own pirimage image of Jesus risen for Easter.

Well I did say I had been busy thanks for looking if you got this far.

Hugs

Marie
