I am pleased with the end result using the mini canvas and easel gave me a little more space on the overall piece and I am getting a little more confident with this style now. Let me know what you think

Take Flight
I started this little canvas/tag to practice blending. I love the sunset colours. The stamp is Paper Artsy, the mini postcard and Butterfly are Tim Holtz stickers, I backe the wings of the butterfly with a little peice of card leaving the body section clear and sticky so the wings could stay up, The flowers I made with Tim Holtz paper and two flower punches. I used a ball tool on the centre of the flowers and the petals seem to close up.The little hanger holding the postcard is also Tim Holtz.

Baby Boy 8 x 8
This easel card was ordered by a colleague of my DH. I used a gorgeous digi stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil , such a cute picture, and papers from my stash, Wild Orchid crafts flowers and spellbinders dies.
I think it could have done with a bit more 'depth' maybe another mat of some sort. What do you think?

Emma's Birthday Book
This Birthday Book was commisioned by my brother Graham for his Daughter Emma as a Birthday gift.
The papers are Bird Song by Trim Craft, I also used Tim Holtz Birdcage, flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts, I altered the bird with Alcohol ink and also used Tim Holtz corners. This time I used book rings instead of my zutter. I was able to use eyelets on the punched holes, which I thing gives a more finished look, much more in keeping with the pretty girly feel to the covers. I also punched the edge of the pockets with a Martha Stewart punch.
I hope you like it Graham and I hope Emma likes it.

Red + Blue 8x8
I made this card for a colleague of my DH to give to his lady. I liked the colours they came about by accident moving piles of stuff from one place to another ending up with the red ribbon on the blue paper. The stamp is a digi from Mo's digital pencil, an american site with some gorgeous digi stamps. the paper was from my stash and the 'lace' was a paper doilley, the flowers were from Wild Orchid Crafts.
