Card for Margaret



Morning
I thought I would share my latest card with you, I made it for Margaret who will be 80 later this month. As I believe inserts in cards are as important as the front I will show this too. Unfortunately the light isn't very good and spoils the photo a little.

I used plain card stock from stash and made a border using a Martha Stewart punch and coloured the border with Milled Lavendar from Tim Holzt distress inks. The decoupage was from very old stock and  the silver ribbon came from Docrafts. A Spellbinders die was used for the shape of the message card which was coloured lightly with Milled Lavender and  the verse was coated with silver foil. I finally used a couple of butterfly stickers to finish it off.

I used My Craft Studio Floriography for the insert and changed the colour to Lavendar. The verse was from Crafty Ideas verse printer 2.
Hope you have a great day.

Christmas Time



The frame and picture is from My Craft Studio Setting the Scene cd. The picure was decoupaged and glitter was used on the rooftops and tree, little gems were also put on the tree. I used a Heat gun to mold the holly which was from MCS. I didn't do matt and layering as I thought it would spoil the look of the frame. Hope you have a good day and enjoy my first ever blog, I also hope that my page at some point will be much more interesting.
