Thank you

My card today follows the sketch from Stamplorations. I scored 2 diagonal lines and stamped the message between them, filling in the spaces as though it was a continuous line. Both the word and the leaf stamps are from WOW, and stamped with bundled sage DI The splatters are from Paper Artsy Hotpix HPXT01, and stamped with evergreen bough DI.

Catching up!

Have been quite busy since we got home from holidays, and now I am catching up with a few challenges.
First of all I would like to welcome my newest follower Sid, I hope you enjoy it here.

My card is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black, using Penny Black's 'Constellations'.
The centre was cut out and coloured with Sakura Jelly Roll Glaze pens.
The message is from a set by Paperbabe.
I then raised the centre piece on foam.

I'm back!

Sorry I have been missing for such a long time, but now I am back and getting into card making again.
A friend is turning 65 in a few weeks time, so I have made this card for her. I have used a template from  Cardmaking Paradise (link is on my sidebar) and cut it out with my Cameo.
I used a Penny Black background stamp all over the front, using Mermaid Lagoon DI. I also sponged the edges with the same ink. I added some flowers and a corner flourish cut from snippets for decoration.

age is just a number!!

I was inspired by the fabulous card by Cornelia. It is my dil's birthday today, so I made this card for her. I used a 6x6 black card base, and because I didn't have suitable number stamps, I used some silver stickers to create the falling numbers. I handcut the arrows from a scrap of shiny red card, and the bigger numbers, which were originally a sickly green were heat embossed with red ep. The strip down the side is some tape, which I thought finished off the card quite nicely.

and also at Pixie's Crafty Workshop, as I used the wee snippets of red

Today's card features a beautiful Art Deco image that I have recycled from another card. I have layered it on a red mat, and then a Kraft one. I also coloured the peel-off to match. I would like to enter this into the Stamplorations February challenge.

New Baby

I had to make a baby card, and found inspiration while doing some internet searching. Sorry I did not take note of the web address for the Sillhouette file, I will add it to this post if I can find it again. I cut out the elephant from a scrap of spotty paper, printed the message on the computer, cut it out and layered it on a piece of silver corrugated card. A very simple card, but I am pleased with the result.

Today's card features a stamp that I have had a number of years, and I go back to it every so often. I stamped and embossed with detail black EP, and also stamped again on a snippet of pretty blue card. I fussy cut it and raised it with mounting tape over one of the images. I also added black 'enamel effects' in the centre.
