This is a really simple card that I made for a friend at work. I have edited the name and date of the Christening for privacy reasons. I used a scalloped edge A5 card and mounted some lovely blue gingham paper (from Boyes) onto it. Then using some blue stamping up card - sorry not sure what the fancy name is - I cut 2 scalloped ovals and a Sizzix teddy. I also cut a white teddy and layered up the nose, paw pads and heart (i also added a heart gem in blue!) I gave him wobbly eyes and added the details of the christening. With a few gems to embellish the corners, it was done!

Hope you like and thanks for looking.

Getting ready for Christmas! Yes I do know its only May!!!!

here is a very simple matting and layering card using the Forever Friends Christmas stamps. Matt and Layer your card with some backing paper then stamp the topiary tree to one side of a smaller piece of paper then colour. Use a piece of printed vellum over the top, I used one printed with snowflakes, then I stamped the bear and coloured with promarkers and did some homestyle decoupage! Embellish with red and green gems.

Spring Is Here!

This is my quick and simple card for club on Wednesday! We are all making quick and simple cards so heres mine in a spring theme.

First I layered a backing paper from back to basics by dovecraft (I think) onto some coloured card. I cut a 1.5cm strip to go down one edge. Then I used a nestibility to create my back ground and layered up a forever friends bear from the Christmas clear stamp set and coloured with promarkers (apricot, oatmeal and blush for the bear, lilac and grass for the parcel).
I used xcut flower punches to create my flowers usiing a pale yellow and deep purple card stock and finally secured the two flowers together with a frosted brad. These were attached by silicone. And that as they say, except for a few pearls, is that!

Fizzy Moon is Pink and Butterflies!

This is the card I made for my best mate Danni! It's the new fizzy moon stamps with a bit of homestyle decoupage on the feet and flowers. Mounted using nesties, both the same size but off set and the EK butterfly border punch to finish. Can't remember which papers I used but they are fairly recent! And to make the card shape I just sliced off at an angle then folded. Also used half pearls to add some drama to the card.
