Rachels Butterflies

I made this card for my daughters best bud Rachel. She loves a bit of bling lol.

The large butterfly was made by cutting two hearts with the Tim Holtz die Hearts and Wings. The pink butterflies was cut with a shapeability die. The paper was a digital paper from Pink Petticoat.

Every Possibility Canvas

I was lucky enough to go to a workshop with Kaz recently. I learnt so much. We all made a canvas following one that Kaz had done. The interesting thing was that they were all slightly different, reflecting the cross section of people there, the one common link between us was craft.

I am so proud of my attempt, I never thought I could produce work like this. I hope you all enjoy looking at it  (or maybe I am seeing it through rose coloured specs LOL).

Birthday Book

I made a Birthday book for my brother Graham and his wife Cherie. I wanted them to know how much I love them and I am lousy with words. I hope they like it.
I used Tim Holtz papers, Tattered Flowers and leaves dies and ribbon, lace and bits and bobs from my stash.
Here it is

I made pockets for each month and somewhere to write birthdays The whole book was bound using my Zutter bind it all. I included a hand made card for every month.

Birthday Boy

Our gorgeous Grandson Cameron is 13 at the end of May (I know, I don't look old enough lol) and instead of a card I thought I would make him a small canvas. It has references to him, he collects monopoly (no actual Monopolies were hurt in the making of this canvas), trains, lego and cars and has more forms of wheeled transport than anyone I know lol.

I hope he will like it and keep it to show his kids. I really enjoyed making it, it is my first canvas and I think there will be many more lol.

50th Birthday Card

I made this one for a 50th birthday. Is it a bit over the top? I do love the flowers I got from Wild Orchid Crafts (as you can probably tell :) ). The paper is Tim Holtz and the Black lettering and heart/leaves I cut with my Craft Robo/Sillouette. The butterflies are 3d stickers.

Tattoo Card

I made this one for a crafting friend, Liz, I know she likes Tattoos and I found this really pretty bird and blossom design online, added some flowers and digital paper from Pink Petticoat.
I hope Liz liked it.

Mens Cards !!

It is so difficult to do mens cards. Had to do one for someone at Mike's work. I used Papermania stamps paper from Tim Holtz and my stash and my new spellbinders Sprightly Sprocket dies (sorry Sue got them online :) )
I was quite pleased with the result. Hope you like it.
