Wedding Card

 

My niece got married recently and this is their wedding card. The main

image is Wedding Trio made by Great Impressions (embossed)  and it has been my

wedding go to card for at least 30 years. It is a neglected stamp as we don't

have a lot of weddings at this stage of our life.   I added a Momenta heart

 die to this card.  The white paper is a sparkle paper which shows up much 

better in person.  

 

Not the best picture but below is another wedding card using the same 

main stamp:

More Than One Fold

 Less than 12 weeks to Christmas so I am working on Christmas cards and

made the following one for the current Allsorts Challenge!  Liz choose my

favorite theme: more than one fold or anything goes! 

 This is actually a very easy fold. It's an A2 card and the inside white piece

is folded in half and then back to the edge.  The circle is cut our from the

front of the card and you just add your image.

Happy Birthday

 

 I was a one of the winners of an Altenew blog hope for having my name

randomly drawn.  I got a $15 gift certificate and used it for Cupcake mini 

delight, it came with the stamps and dies! I gathered up some

white paper scraps to re-use for lots of die cutting of the cupcake and

"happy" sentiment.  I also used snippets of blue card stock, and

snippets of papers from My Minds Eye .  I used Sweet Sketch 235

for inspiration on the card above. 

 

A few more cards I made:
