Happy Birthday Dad

I made this card for my dad, he races pigeons so that was the theme I used to create this card.  I used my new dies from MFT and with some little stamping with Stampin' Up! for some finishing touches.

Confirmation for Boys

My son Brad has did his Confirmation last week and beside him is his sponsor - Uncle Will.  Below I made Brad's Confirmation card using the die-cut Cross, Hero Arts Cloud stamp and Stampin Ups! Autumn Days stamp set.

Confirmation for Girls

I used the same design as my Confirmation Invitation to make this Confirmation card to suit a girl.  I made some adjustments by changing the colour, embossing with white powder and rounding the edges.  I also used the same diecut-Cross with gold cardstock to attach to the candle.

Confirmation Invitations

With the help of Martha Stewart border punch, Sizzix die-cuts and Stampin' Up! words stamp sets, I made this invitation for Brad's Confirmation this year.

Christmas Card Swap

This is my Christmas card swap I made with the Stampin' Up! ladies in September and as the month flew by I was glad I had taken part.  I have to say it was a great feeling when you have completed them and sent off and even better when the girl's at the post office wanted to have a look and gave such great compliments.

Die-Cut Birthday Cards

I'm love using die-cuts and the rosette that's on this card  is by Tim Holtz and the cute little butterfly is an embosslit die from Stampin' Up! called Beautiful Wings which cuts out 5 different size butterflies and dry emboss at the same time - pretty cool!  The background stamp is inked with 3 different colours and sprayed with water before stamping onto the card such a fun technique with great results.
