Tilda Card


This is a card I made for a lovely lady on MSE who has been having a hard time of it recently. I don't really have any thinking of you stamps etc (something I must correct!) so I used a special paper from MME that I hadn't opened as I love them and just look at them instead of using hehe, I hope the cards made you feel that people were thinking of you.

My poor neglected blog - Another Christening


It was my nephews christening a few weeks ago (shameful I haven't blogged before now) Anyway the photo above is a dew drop type photo ( although that isn't the photo I used as my computer is doing what it pleases today I uploaded when I could)


I stamped a few vests and coloured with pro markers (Sis in law says it has survived the first wash anyway fingers crossed)


This is the card I made him, I used this image when he was born. my sister in law kept the gift tag of it on her mantle place so I kind of figured she liked it so reused it again)

Inside of card


I made a cart with a teddy inside it, sorry for rubbish photo it was taken in a hurry, it was made from chipboard and painted with acrylic paints


Can't take much credit for cake but I did contribute a little little bit to it lol


cart with teddy taken curtesy of big sister Lily aged five!


This is the photo from above, I painted a photo frame and distressed with crackle paint then added a couple of embellishments, there is a star on it with a very slight impression of his finger print


Here he is my gorgeous nephew, what a proud God mummy I was that day

Christening gifts

 This is the card I made for Granddaughter christening. I love this image so sweet ready for her bed lol
The flowers have been slightly painted with white acrylic paint as has the edge of the image. The butterfly embellishments have also been painted. The image is MFT 


I made a box for the card to go in


I stamped the image onto a vest and coloured with pro markers, the face was a bit fake bake! so I blended with my blender pen (I knew I would eventually use it someday) 
I showed this to my OH and he said they might not realise it goes with the card, I think they might get the theme hehe


I made a little pillow and again stamped the image onto linen and coloured, the pillow has a pocket for the toothfairy!




Finally a bag for all the presents to go in

Fathers Day

 This is my card for my Dad for Fathers day. I have stapled some twine across the card and added a spanner charm. The image has been coloured with pro markers and inked the edge


This is the inside of the card, I added a camera charm as soon as I had used the spanner charms I promptly lost the bag of charms ... duh!

This is the card I have made my brother for his birthday. I cut our some music circles from a paper pad I found lurking in my stash. The letters are wonky even though I measured them out!!



This is the inside of the card

Birthday Cards

 A couple of Birthday cards I have made recently, I love the house mouse stamp (but then I love strawberries!) I did have a strawberry charm that was supposed to go on the card but I forgot about it. The image has been coloured with pro markers and I have embossed the red card


I love the image on this card, Tilda has been coloured with pro markers and lots of sparkle. I have added german glitter glass to the flowers, the charm is a butterfly charm, not supposed to be sideways but hey ho.


                                                      Glitter socks!
                                                

I have also decorated on the inside of the card
