In the garden

Morning,
So much to do today and so little time. I will just quicly show you a card I made for a workmate to give her friend. It uses a Digi from Digistamp boutique which is here.
I have coloured using Promarkers and the papers are I think Do crafts. I had them from Wilko's anyway.
I have used a whimsy sentiment and cut it with a whimsy ticket stub die. The flowers are an MFT die and I have used some little punches. Got to go now but have a great day!

Fairy Princess Michelle

Evening Guys,
Just wanted to check in with you and show you a card I finished today. I used Michelle from Milkcoffee stamps and you can get her here.
I have paper pieced her dress using some Boofle papers and the other papers are from Do-crafts and some digital freebies.I also added some wings to her back that I cut from lace embossed vellum.
I used some chipboard letters for the name and added glitter using my glue pen. The sentiment was also a freebie. I hand cut the number one and added some sweetheart blossoms from Wild orchid crafts.
The dies are sizzix, Spellbinders and memory box,
Thanks for popping by,

Ruby Red

Hi Everyone,
It's Saturday again and all week I have been really busy at work and when not there I have been making cards and have started on some cake flags.
Todays card was made for a special couple's Ruby anniversary from their daughter.
I used a stamp from Lili of the valley- Love balloon.
All the flowers are from Wild orchid crafts and I have coloured in using Promarkers.

I have used Spellbinders to die cut the heart frames on the card and box. I have highlighted some areas with Stardust stickles and have used red stickles for the balloon.
Bye for now.

A double celebration

Hi Guys,
It's monday again and it's September! Where did the year go?
I can feel a little panic beginning to take hold as Christmas looms and I haven't made a single card for it. Whoops!
Today's card is for a Christening for 2 little girls. I know the date says the 25th but it was made as a belated gift from my neighbour for her friend.
I have used a mix of flowers from Wild Orchid crafts and 2 different papers. One is from Summer breeze and the other The rose garden. Both are from First Edition.I used ribbon from my stash and added 2 hearts for the 2 girls. I coloured them in using my Pro markers.
Thanks for looking. I am off to walk my dog now,
Bye :)
