Hairdresser

I made this card for my hairdresser, who has been in business for 25 years. She is holding a Champagne Buffet on Saturday to celebrate this fantastic achievement and I've been invited!

I promise, I'll be on my best behaviour!!!

The digi was drawn by the very talented and kind Ei...

...I watercoloured the image, added a handmade flower and sentiment...

...and decorated the inside. The papers are from Pink Petticoat (of course!); gems and peel-offs are from my stash.

Over at Little Claire's Designs the challenge is to make a project using the colour scheme PINK and GREEN. This was great news for me because I love this colour combo!

Perfectly Shabby

I love the new 'Perfect Papers' from Pink Petticoat.

I printed these pretty grey and cream papers onto photo paper, coloured in the roses and distressed and inked the edges with Distress ink.

I added Glamour dust to the torn paper and made a handmade flower using card and shimmer mist.

The inside is decorated to match.

Floral Set

Yayyy, it's Friday!

Just a quick post today to share a card I made using the 'Floral Set' from Little Claire's Designs.

This set isn't new to the range BUT it is still just as stylish as all their other stamps. It's easy to use and extremely versatile.

I simply stamped the flowers twice, coloured them with Promarkers and layered them up! The butterfly also comes in the set and adds a pretty embellishment to the card.

Messing about on the river!

My first card uses the girl in the boat image. How nice to have a little tomboy for a change! I kept the card simple and used pastel colours.

I even got to use my new bakers twine and card candy.

I added a glittered border around the image for definition.

For my second card, I used brighter colours - I so love these papers from Pink Petticoat :)

I coloured the image with Promarkers. The flowers were cut with Marianne D creatables and coloured with Promarkers to match.
