Lace Friendship Card

This card I made for two challenges:- Daring Cardmakers challenge is to make a Love and Friendship card and My Time to Craft challenge is to use lace on your card. I used cream cardstock and a penny black stamped image which I was sent by a friend. I simply coloured the image with watercolour pencils and then matted it onto some pink patterend paper. I stamped the Friendship sentiment onto white card and again matted it onto pink patterned paper. I then added some lace down the left and right hand side of the card.

Valentine Card

It is a nice bright day here today - no snow as yet, but it is very cold outside.

I was inspired to make this card as a challenge on Daring Cardmakers The card had to have red and white on it, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to make Hubby's valentine card :-) I used Carol Ann's Romance & Roses cd to print off the backing paper and also the hearts and the sentiment I printed from my pc. I matted and layered onto red and white cardstock and decoupaged the main hearts then added a couple of red heart gems on the sentiment.
This card also qualifies for the challenge on Scrummy Stash Cafe, which was to make a valentine card.

Foil Card with Ribbon

This card I made for Daring Cardmakers challenge - the first time I've joined in. The dare this week was to use kitchen aluminium foil some where on your card.

This card also meets the criteria for the Scrummy Stash Cafe challenge which is to use ribbons.

I covered a piece of card with kitchen foil and embossed it with a cuttlebug embossing folder. I added this to a black card and then stamped a DMD butterfly stamp in black ink onto white card and matted and layered it onto black and silver card. I then added a black ribbon and a buckle cut on my Wizard.
