A quick card made yesterday using Kanban background and the topper made with the lovely embossing folder from Crafter's Companion, with the addition of the Italian Options 3D foam glittered snowflakes and the sentiment.
I was a winner for Penny's challenge 479:
and as a result I was invited to be a Guest designer for today's challenge 483:
This is a commissioned car that I've made this morning. The request was for for a birthday card for a son-in-law who likes a beer. I wanted to make a box with a 'glass' front with a picture of a beer inside with the instructions 'In emergency please break the glass'. I used Docrafts nesting dies to make the frame which is lined with acetate for the 'glass', also die cutting the layers inside the frame. The frame with acetate was lifted with 3D foam. The instructions were made with tape with my dymo letratag. I added a matching paper inside for the insert and, as the recipient is very musical and plays guitar, I put one on the back. The card blank itself is a folded A4 from Kanban.
A simple card with Kanban supplies - the sentiment and hearts are silver foiled. The circle is raised with 3D form. It's suitable to send for a birthday, wedding or anniversary.
... and look forward to every sunrise
Something a bit different. This is a print out of a photo of a watercolour painting I did when I was staying in Whtstable last Autumn ... it seems much longer than a year now. It was the view from one of the windows of the cottage I was staying in. The card I used is DL ... an odd one I found in the box and liked the bright colour for this.

This is the last tent style A5 card featuring the topper of the lady in pink from Kanban. This time the backing paper is also from Kanban (bought years ago), with the addition of the sentiment and glittered snowflakes from Italian Options.
Another tent style A5 card made with another piece of offcut from the previous cards with an unknown offcut of pink paper on the right. Once again, the topper was from Kanban long ago and the sparkly snowflakes from Italian Options, with the addition of the sentiment.
Very similar to the previous card, made with one of the offcut pieces of the Hunkydory background card with the addition of some other pink paper ... which I had to join near the bottom in order to use it. Once again the topper was from Kanban long ago and the lovely silver poinsettias from Italian Options, with the addition of the sentiment.
I found up four of the lovely toppers that I've used here, from Kanban, long ago. The background paper is Hunkydory, on to a tent style A5 card blank with the addition of Italian Options sparkly snowflakes and the Merry Christmas sentiment from Kanban.
This is another A5 card this morning using supplies from Hunkydory. I had a card that featured choir boys. Usually I would cut this into two to put on the front of two cards, but once again I decided to keep it in one piece, mounting the topper directly on to put of the 'picture' on the card and adding the sentiment.
I decoupaged the picture with many layers built up with 3D foam.
