Classical 90th

Hello!

Woohoo! A midweek post from me!

I have a card to show you that I made in a bit of a hurry yesterday, as it was a last minute order.

First of all, I apologise for the photo! I took it on my phone to send to the customer for approval, then in the hurry to get it in the post I totally forgot to take a proper photo!

Anyway, the image is an old stamp I've had for a while, stamped in Raspberry Ripple onto Sahara Sand cardstock. Most of the supplies are Stampin' Up! and if you would like to purchase any, you do so by clicking here.

We had a fab day yesterday, and even managed to fit in a Dinosour safari!

Yes that is a Velosiraptor in the background! It is a life size statue in the front garden of a house quite near us!

 I have a day of gardening today after church...hope to get all my seedlings out if possible! Have a great Sunday! :)

Bingo!

Good evening!

Here is a card to show you that I made for a commission yesterday...

As you can probably guess, the request was for a bingo themed card! I made the bingo cards and the sentiment in Word, and used Card Candi as the bingo counters.

No challenges for this one...just thought you'd like to see :)

Ok...night!

Concorde!

Wow! What a gorgeous morning it is here in Huddersfield! The sun is very bright...beautiful!

I'm here to show a card I have made for a commission...

The image is from Google images and I printed it twice and decoupaged the second image for some dimension. The embossed panel was done using a Stampin' Up! EF and then I chalked the edges with Dovecraft chalks.

For a 90th Birthday

Good morning!

I hope you are well? I am here to share a 90th birthday card I made a few days ago.

I wanted to reflect a 90 year old lady's style, but also keep it fairly modern, and I think I've managed that. The papers are Pink Craftwork Cards, Vintage Rose and it's a Joy butterfly. I also added a strip of the paper to the inside for a little extra.

Good morning!

I seem to be having a very productive crafting week this week...I have made at least 2 cards a day since Saturday! Though can't post some of them yet as they are DT cards!

However, here is one I can post...

This is from me to Keiran's Granddad who turns 90 tomorrow! And he still loves gardening, though he can't do as much now bless him.

The image is LoTV, coloured with Promarkers. I was going to cut him out with my oval Nestie but there were some smudges in the background so I decided to cut round the image, and mount it onto an oval instead. The papers are My Mind's Eye, the rest is from my stash.

Bingo! 90th Birthday!

Good evening!

Well I have had a very hectic day today......work this morning, shopping with my Dutch friend Simone this afternoon before she headed off back to Holland, an hour to get a 'star' costume for Keiran's Nativity play, and then putting the finishing touches to a large card commission I had!

16 cards in all!!

Anyway, back to the point of this post! This is a 90th birthday card I was asked to make for a bingo lover!

I got the fab sentiment from Diane (thank you!) and the bingo card from Google images. The rest is from my slowly decreasing stash! ;)
