More Mother's Day Cards

Hi Everyone,

Here's some more Mother's Day cards I've been working on of late...

These top note die cards are a great way to showcase how versatile the Designer series papers are. Simply cut your dsp into strips, adhere to the card stock and run through the Big Shot with the Top Note Die... The papers shown are all retired, but the reason why I have still posted these pics is to show you something you can do with your papers.

Thanks for looking,

A couple more Mother's Day Cards

Hi Everyone,

This is a scheduled post cos I'm hoping for a sleep-in today!

Happy Mother's Day to all you Mums out there! I don't think we truly understand what being a mum entails until we are one!!

So here's a few more Mother's Day Cards I've made for our Mums:

This one is for my Mum

This was a custom order (it's got a gift voucher inside)

Here's the gift voucher inside - adhered with my glue pen so it can be taken out and used with my hairdresser friend

Hope you Mum's get to put your feet up today and forget about the housework.... Just for a day anyway :)

Making it early (for once)

Hi Everyone,


I thought I'd share some Mother's Day cards I had on my stall on Saturday just gone.


These were one-offs using up some odd flowers I had ready and waiting.

Each of these flower layers has the faux suede effect

Whoops didn't realise my scrunched flower was a bit flat for the photo

 

A new fav colour combo! Bashful blue, rose red and whisper white


All these cards will be finding a new home very soon.... wonder if it will be at your place?


If you would like a special one-off Mother's Day card or a card for any other ocassion, please let me know, I'd love to help out.

And I'll have to make more cards for my own mum and mother in law! Well, after I make some Easter cards of course for Sunday.

My first top note mini album

Hi Everyone,

This afternoon I finished off my first ever top note mini album. Consisting of 10 pages, in very vanilla & melon mambo, this album is the perfect size for a brag book or similar in a handbag (your's or grandma's) or a gift for a friend.

I'm pretty pleased with the way it turned out. I saw the idea on Gardenia's site but I've made this with my own colours and layout.

I've left the final page plain, I thought it would be good to write a little message or similar on it.

If anyone is interested, I would love to make you one of these in a colour scheme of your choice....

Mother's Day Card

Hi Everyone, I hope my mum isn't really keen and happens to read my blog before I see her tomoro, but here's a quick pic of the little card and matching bookmark I've made to go with her present... The photo doesn't do it much justice but there is crystal effects over the flower to make it 3D and dazzling diamonds in the middle for a bit of bling :) And the bookmark is covered with a flower background wheel. If you like it, you'll have to borrow the set as its no longer avail..... I wasn't planning to blog this card but thought it was cute so I changed my mind :P It didn't take long to knock up last nite and the book mark with a little beading was so simple and fast. My mother in law also received a similar set tonite, but I didn't photograph it in time.... Oh and the layout was inspired by Makeesha's Inkspirations Sketch Challenge #7 (click here for her site - its absolutely marvellous what she can create!!!!!) Thanks for looking, Richelle
