Birthday twins


Some time ago I was commissioned to make birthday cards for twin boys who were going to be 6. Papers are from Hot off the press, the 'space' themed stickers were from Hema, other bits and pieces from stash, including the Kanban birthday greetings.

Under the weather


A card made a while ago to cheer someone up. The images were coloured with spectrum noir pencils as this was a one layer card and alcohol pens would show through. The card blank was run through my printer to print the computer generated sentiment. Lots of gems were then added.


This is for:

AAA cards 172: one layer
Kleuren met Potloden August: anything goes (using pencils)

Music for a granddaughter


This is an 8 x 8 commissioned card I made a while ago for a granddaughter, who is a musician and loves playing the piano. The main background paper is from My Paper Stash quintessential country garden backgrounds and the torn piece across the middle is an unknown piece of paper bought a long time ago. I stamped on to this using the Stamps Happen keys to music stamp inked with memento tuxedo black and brushed with stormy sky distress ink, which I also brushed on to the paper and the flowers from Hobbycraft. 


I used the stamp again on to another piece of the music paper and another piece under the insert:
