Sympathy Card

I decided that I did not have a Sympathy Card and I wanted to have one ready, so I picked out Inspirational Cross 1 from Stamp Art Designs by Kathryne. I added a dimensional layer on lower leaves and the centre flower  and used dimensional adhesive. As soon as I made it I my Mother in Law needed it for a dear friend of hers. A friend of mine designed the sketch for me to use and I used some gingham to contrast with my background paper and colour matched my flower to the gingham. Another girlfriend gave me this lovely ribbon and this worked nicely to match in with my card.

Heart Shaped Card -Teddy Loves Hugs & Kisses

I used my favourite colours again Pink & Green and as my daughter said when I had finished my heart shaped card “it’s very bright Mum”, well maybe she is right! We all need a hug sometimes and this is so very cute and bright to cheer anyone’s day, I picked this cute little teddy bear out at Whimsy and the sentiment inside . I borrowed my girlfriends Spellbinder Nested Hearts die (I use it way more than she does) and used my Spellbinder Scallop Hearts for all my layers. The pale pink layer has pretty love hearts and I decided to paper pierce all the scalloped hearts for extra detailing. I tried to make my bear look like he was so loved.. he was losing some fur in places, just like my favourite bear who is so well worn he’s  nearly bald!

Christmas Smoochie Bears

I used this Christmas Smoochie Bears Stamp by Stamp Art Design for my Christmas in July card. I have been dying to use my white  flower soft on a Christmas card and this was the  perfect product to add to the hats to make them look soft and fluffy. I also used my new Memory Box die to give my card some pretty snowflakes and finished off with ribbon with dots. I love this polka dot paper, the dots feel like velvet and add to that warm fuzzy feeling with this card. I’m putting this card aside to give hubby for Christmas as we got married just a few days before Christmas and hopefully he will think this is cute! I paper pieced the jackets and gloves and if you look closely it has faint Christmas running writing through the red designer paper. First I printed onto this image onto White Cardstock and did my colouring in with my Copics and then I decided what paper to use to paper piece with.

For the paper piecing I printed off a sheet of my images using copy paper and then stuck  my designer paper down with double sided tape using a 6 x 6 sheet and ran it through my printer again. I did this so I didn’t have any wastage with my designer paper and positioned it exactly so I could use this for another card at a later time and now I have a spare set to fussy cut out when I’m waiting for my daughter at her next singing lesson!
