Tulip card

At last I'm able to show you a card I've made using one of my recent S~on~S.  This tulip card was made using this sheet.  I used  leather texture A4 card stock to make the DL size card and cut the background to fit leaving the side border.  I will be adding some stardust stickles glitter to the edge of the tulips as I think that will look nice.

House mouse

Hi everyone, just wanted to show you these cards I made using Joanna Sheens wonderful decoupage sheets.  I love this house mouse series they just fit with so many different occasions.  The first card I made for my sisters bithday and the second is a thankyou card for the nursing staff at West Cornwall hospital where I had an eye operation 10 days ago and the last is for my nephews birthday.

DIY cards

Here we are as promised.  This week I've made 2 cards using yesterdays  sheet as the thankyou card was made so quickly! lol  Here's how I did them.

Birthday card
I used an oval template that I made from another piece of card and sponged this using whispers ink for the green tones and an inspiration ink for the sky.  I then added a fine bronze colour peeloff around the oval.  The sentiment topper was made using SU  designer label punch with a peice of pearlescent green card and the small sentiment. I then attached this to the strip with SU dimensionals.
Thankyou card
I used the fiskers running water border punch on the striped paper and add the the sentiment to a peice of green card and attached with 2 SU dimensionals. 

Jacks Card

Hi everyone, I just wanted to show you this wonderful card that Jack (a young neighbour) has made for his Dads birthday. He

came up with the idea of using a picture of the lorries that his father drives and was able to remember the company name so that we could find a picture. Jack is very new to card making this being his second card, as you can see he has decoupaged the lorries really well. For the inside Jack has added an insert of patterned paper with a lorry that matches the front of the card

S on S Present

This weeks offering is using an image of a present, unfortunately I don't know the original designer of this so cannnot give them credit. I hope you like the way I've used the image and as usual I'll be posting a card later to show you how I've used this sheet. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

Here we are as promised the card I've made using this weeks sheet. I used Dovecraft corner punch on the second layer and the plain backing paper was from a pack of card sheets from Grafix for Kids. Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Friends cards

Here are 2 cards I made using this saturdays free sheet.

Recipes

** For the birthday card I used stampin ups Loads of love stamp set and the accessories set has the sentiment used. I put the car on using stampin up dimensionals and sponged the 'road' in using whispers archival ink.

** For the card with the bow, I will add an insert saying something on the lines of "thinking of you and thought I'd let you know"

Birthday Card

This lovely card was made by Marie using Stampin ups 2 step bird punch for the stem/leaves. The small hearts used are from the Papermania border punch. Gemstone brads were added to the flower centres and pearlised paper was used for the stems as shown in this close-up.

2 Quick cards

If you're looking for an idea for a very quick card to make these didn't take long at all. The only time was waiting for the glitter to dry.


Recipe
The birds were made using Stampin ups 2 step bird punch and scraps of card stock.
I sponged the edges with whispers ink.
I used black gel pen for the eyes, and a smear of stickles stardust on the top edge of the wing and head.
Paper border for the top left card is from a Laura Ashley selection pack.
Glitter is Stardust Stickles.
The backing paper for the top right card is from a Papermania spring collection.

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.

For the Ladies

I have been trying to use up various items I've bought and have had for some time! lol This first card was from Carol Ann studio CD and I've added some 3D glue to the middle of the flower.

The second card I made from a decoupage sheet not sure where I got this one! lol but I'm pleased with the result after cutting the card to match the topper.

It's a busy time of year with cards needed for birthdays and other occasions. Here are a couple of cards I've recently made the first is using the tag punch I bought from stamping up.

The second is a card using a concertina folded butterfly that I'm pleased with and have kept a template of how I did it for futute use.
