A kept promise

Hello everyone!

As promised last week I told you I would show my mams birthday cards which I made.  She had a lovely day and loved her cards which I was very pleased about.  I created two very different cards and I really enjoyed making them.  I have also been busy this week making lots of stock up for my craft fair which is creeping closer!  I have photos up on my Facebook page and my Etsy shop.  Also don't forget I have entered the Ohh Deer competition and need your help to win, my links are in last weeks post.

The first was pink card with a white border and pink heart and happy birthday sentiment.

I hole punched lots of little flowers in different shades of pink before gluing them into the shape of a heart.  I then added "Happy Birthday to my Amazing Wife" to the side of the card and 2 pink rhinestones.  I also added a few little pink rhinestones to the flowers on the heart.  The card was left blank inside.

The second was a very basic colour scheme of beige and black.

I layered the card so I had beige then black then beige which I then placed 2 die cut black butterflies on, I added 3 small silver rhinestones to the middle of each butterfly.  I love the simplicity of this card.  I added an Happy Birthday sentiment inside.

Hope you've all had a brilliant week and enjoy reading my post.

See you all next week.
Bye for now!

Cards, cards and cards

Hello everyone!

This week I have been busy making some more cards ready for my craft fair in November, not long to go now and I am so excited, hope your all going to come and visit the stall (will post details soon).

Some of my favourites that I have made this week...

I hole punched my little flowers gradually using a darker blue card to work up the card and added the sentiment "Birthday Treats".

Using a die cut butterfly I glued it onto white card and stamped the "Happy Birthday!" sentiment before adding silver rhinestones to the butterfly.

I hole punched hearts from different shades of orange card and placed them into the shape of a heart before adding a single gold rhinestone to the centre.

All my cards are very simple this week but I have really enjoyed making them rather than using my usual style of bold!  Hope you've liked them too.  Don't forget I am selling on Etsy now too.  Also other cards which I have made are on my Facebook page if you'd like to see them.

Bye for now!
