More family cards

For my nieces birthday card I made a topper and backing sheet using a photo of her dog (Bichon frise) and a lot of pink as that's her favourite colour! lol

For the second card I used a Stampin up circle scallop punch and a punch/stamp from the 3 for you stamp set for the 3 small flowers . The layout idea I got from an example card on a Stampin up examples site. The lilac backing paper and flower topper are from old TLC stock i have.



Family cards



Sorry for such a long gap between posts. Our daughter has been poorly, I'm pleased to say she is now making a good recovery. I have managed to make a few cards other than some christmas cards. One for my great nephew and another for an aunt.


My nephews card was made using the Crafters companion Boys CD and I stamped a picture of a boy and put him in the window.

For my Aunt I used a topper and backing sheet from a cd (I think Joanna sheen ! lol) I embossed a wavy line on the backing paper and the right hand side of the card front then cut this off and add as shown in the picture.

Animal magic

I have been having great fun with my punches making animal toppers so far I've got 2 done and there are many more I want to try! lol

The sheep card isn't finished with a sentiment etc as I feel it will work for several different occasions. I got the instructions for this from Stamp with Heather http://stampwithheather.typepad.com/stamp_with_heather/ who is brilliant with stamping and punching.


The owl card I have made for someone who ran a rescue centre for all animals including owls. The instructions for this I found on Youtube by foreveramber925. Both cards use stampinup punches, I had to adapt the owl a bit as I don't have all the punches used. (yet! lol)
