More father's day cards




Top photo are cards made from Forever Friends, and the bottom from a Home and Nest Decoupage pack I found in a goodie bag.  Certainly the bottom one is not my usual type of card, but I have been commissioned to make gardening cards!

90th birthday card


This is a card that was commissioned by someone I only met briefly for someone I have never met!  I thought I would go classy and elegent - these are all craftwork cards elements.

Father's day cards



Making cards for blokes is not easy, and no fun.  A complete absence of sparkly things and very little in the way of pink!

Here are my first attempts for this year - minus the sentiments which will be going on later.

Children in Need Card Making-athon!



You may or may not know I am a TOG (Terry Wogan's Old Gal) and as well as making cards for BLESMA this year I will also be making cards for Children in Need.  We are off to a TOGup in Cornwall in two weeks and I want to have a nice supply for people to purchase.  This is the first batch.  Stand by for Pudsey cards!

Wedding Card


I am sorry about the dreadful photography, This is a wedding card, wanted to keep it very simple - with just the papers and the statement ribbon doing the talking.

Pleased to announce that so far this year I have raised about £40 for this years's charity - BLESMA.

40th birthday card


This is a commission by my most enthusiastic customer!  A 40th birthday card which I will hand over, along with a wedding card on Thursday when we meet up at the Langham for lunch!  In case you think that we regularly lunch in such style it is a very special occasion!

Roll on the Wedding Season!

Mother's day cards


I am very pleased to note that now that I have finished my studies and I can devote more time to this I am getting orders, sold about 6 Valentines cards at work, and now we are on to the Mothers Day cards.  Thank you for your orders, 50% of sale proceeds will go to BLESMA (British Limbless Ex-Servicemen's Association) - a worthy cause I am sure you will agree.

An order of Valentine's cards!





I have had an order for Valentine's cards - it's quite hard when you know very little about the person you are making for!  However from the top, a simple card made with printed acetate and flowers. Then two made with 'You to Me' embellishments. Then a Little Claire peel off coloured in with promarkers. And at the bottom some Craftwork Cards papers with a Little Claire swirly cats stamp - you cannot really see the cats very well, I have embossed with sparkly silver embossing powder.

Something I did earlier!



Just some butterflies with trails - you all know that I love colour!

More Valentine's cards



More Valentine's Day cards - the top one - just sparkly things stuck on the card and the bottom one - a Little Claire Stamp with added Judiness!

Valentines Day cards

Coming over all romantic ....

It's Spring and my mojo has returned ...



I don't usually do those packs with embellishments but I bought one that I really liked and one think led to another!  These are large mother's day cards from Hunkydory, with added flowers covered in ice stickles.
