A Card For A Friend

Hello and welcome to my blog, thank you for visiting.

I'm busy creating items to sell on my stall at an upcoming Christmas Fayre.  Everything I sell is to raise funds for my Lourdes group so I hope there's a good turnout on the day!

My card today is one I made for a friend to let her know I was thinking of her:

I used a 6 x 6 card blank to which I added Lynda Chapman's Kraft Card.  I die cut the lace layer, and the mat the flowers are sat on, from Co'oredinations card using Tattered Lace dies.  The decoupaged flowers are also from Tattered Lace using a charisma image.  These dies and images are all from the recent Here and There collection. The sentiment was die cut using Tattered Lace sentiment dies.

I'd like to enter my card into the current challenge at CD Sunday Plus - Challenge 23 which is anything goes.

Please leave me a comment, I'd love to know what you think.

Happy Anniversary

Hello

My friends' parents' are celebrating their Diamond Wedding Anniversary this week and I was asked to make a card for them.  I know both my friend and her mum particularly like stitched cards so that is what I chose to make:

I stitched the roses using a diamond sparkly thread.  I created the aperture card with hammered card on the outside, the silver mirror, then white adorable scorable glitter card.

I added an insert which was printed from My Craft Studio Click Print Go Simply Sentiments:
