Vintage Card

  I had a lot of fun making this Vintage style card and I used two papers and ripped the edge thru the middle and inked the edges.I then sprayed walnut inks over the top, green ink over the blue paper on the left and a brown ink over the right side. I had a list in my head of products I wanted to see on my card …pearls definitely, vintage flowers, lace which I left a frayed edge and wove some satin ribbon thru for extra detail , I even managed to add a feather. The big bow ribbon has detailed stitching and a perfect accent. I purchased this ruler ribbon on the bottom recently and was dying to use it! She is such a sweet little girl and she has that lovely vintage childhood memories feel to it, kind of like the Secret Garden.

Cascading Card with Sparkle

I really enjoy making construction style cards as it challenges me to use my brain a lot more than a standard card base and gives me so much satisfaction to say to myself “I did that”!  My girlfriend Vicki came over with the Destructions and we made one each and it’s hard to see in the first photo but I found some cardstock in my stash that was white one side and a coral pink on the other side, so it looks rather tricky! This adorable little angel I used is from Whoopsi Daisy Digis and I generously added some glitter which you can see in my second picture, she “Shines like the top of the Chrysler Building”!!!!!! I ended up creating a whole garden behind her with cascading leaves and flowers everywhere. Then to make sure it was extra sparkly I used a mountain of Bling and splashed it everywhere!! I can now say with conviction that leaf die was an excellent investment towards my stash, and lately has had a serious workout!!!

Beach Babies Birthday Card

I just had to have these adorable babies to colour in, I just love those chubby legs and it’s a beach scene that brings back fond childhood memories! It’s always fun to go to the beach and you’re never too old to play in the sand! I used embossing on my light blue cardstock and  dry embossed waves…this is hard to see , colour blue and die cuts for my sentiment. I used a woven wool to look like seaweed and strung thru some cute beach style beads to add to the beach theme!
