I stamped with Stampin' Up - Oh, So Lovely stamp set.  To colour the image in I used a combination of  Watercolour Pencils and Chalks for a soft and elegant look.  I think ribbons always gives any card a beautiful finish.

Last Minute Fathers Day Card

This card is quick and easy to do with white card stock I stamped Happy Fathers Day with Kaleidacolor Rainbow Inkpad-Blue Breeze.  Then with printed paper this one I received in UK magazine Quick Cards Made Easy - Issue 62. I cut out dad and attached it onto the white card stock.  I cut the ribbon from the printed paper and added that on.  The diamond shape "For You" was also cut out from the printed paper.  I attached it to blue card stock then mounted with 3D Foam tape and now you've got yourself a fathers day card.

Bedtime Chart

I thought this was really cute to get more charts go to Chart Jungle.

Fathers Day Bird Card

I used Stampin' Stamp - Touch of Nature and used Chocolate Chip ink pad.  

I used brown, red, yellow and green chalks on the bird. 

When using chalks don't forget to spray Fixative to protect your work.  

Then mount bird to chocolate card stock.



Use VersaMark ink pad and stamp Happy Fathers Day onto the green card stock.





 Cut green ribbon to fit across the card and use double sided tape to cover one side of ribbon.

 \.




Extra ribbon on both ends so you can either cut at each end or you can fold ribbon over the other side of card.



Use 3D foam tape onto the back of the bird to give it a raised appearance.





Then mount bird onto card.  



Fathers Day Bird Card

This card is for my dad who loves birds especially pigeons so I thought to use Stampin' Up - Touch of Nature and if you like to know how I made this card I have added it in my Tutorials.  So get stamping for fathers day and have fun.

Spring Card Tutorial

My very first Tutorial on the Spring Card butterfly so check it out and let me know what you think about it. Just click Tutorials.

Spring Card Butterfly

When you print the template score the lines as shown.It may appear there is a square piece missing from this template but don't worry this template is designed to make the spring card big we add the square later.

Once lines are scored bend fold the lines so you are left with a point and the base is facing you.

This is how it should look like.

Know bend the triangle back and let go it should spring back up.

This is where we add a square card stock. 

This square should be light so try to use light card stock. 

I have provided the square template on the bottom. 

You might don't be able to see the template because I drew it lightly so you can use this straight on card stock when printing.

Depending on your printer size not be the same. 

To make your own template of square, draw around the triangle and flip it over and trace the triangle again if you a perfect square.

Decorate the square before adding this on the spring card. 

Use adhesive on the lower part of the triangle.

Now you have a big spring card. 

For the template click here.

Birthday Card With Fiskars

I love butterflies as you have probably guested by now. First I emboss Happy Birthday onto the card. Then I used Fiskars Butterfly No.2 template, then added ribbon stripe, decorative paper and some flower embellishments.

40th Birthday Card

This birthday card was for a 40th, I used by Big Shot-Sizzlits Butterfly#2. I love using glitter as you can see. I put the wings through a Xyron machine to give me sticky wings without making the card stock wet, I then added Jones Tones Glitter powder which gave me the finishing touch I was looking for.

Birthday Card With Stamp-It Bear

 
This is a money birthday cards, I really enjoyed making these so I made a batch of them and then added the stamp later. I coloured in with chalks and when I was finished, I used Fixative spray so the chalk won't fade or smudge-highly recommend it. This stamp is by Stamp-it in Australia and if you are a bear lover, I know you would love this one.

Fixative

This stamp can be used for both male or female and is great for 40th birthdays. I particularly liked the amount of candles the hedge hog is holding.  I coloured the image with markers and a blender pen and using quality paper makes the task at hand easier. I added Pearlescent chalks to give the picture a shine and sprayed Fixative over the chalk so the chalk won't rub off. When you open this card there is a pouch that holds money or a voucher.

Boys Birthday Cards

Boys Boys Boys and I don't mean the song by Lady Gaga. It's hard to make boys or mens cards so with the help of Stampin Up stamps- Fishy Fish I was able to come up with this. Hope you like it.
