A card for a teenage boy


This is a card which I made a while ago. I had a few scraps of paper left over from a LO and thought that they would be perfect for a boys card. I can't remember the name of the Paper Company but the papers were; Factory, Warehouse, Cog, Market street and Industrial Loft.. I also used some cream cardstock which I distressed with 'Mustard Seed' and 'Scattered Straw' distress inks.


The numerals are from the same range and I also used a rub-on for the wording. The envelope which you see in the background was distressed using   'vintage photo' ink and the fab Tim Holtz masks.

Crafty Creations Challenge #31







This is my entry for the Crafty Creations challenge #31. I had just finished a LO using these papers so they were close to hand. I stamped the owls onto various different papers and layered them up. I did the same with the sentiment. I'm sorry the first two images appear on their sides, they are actually portrait in my album! So I don't know what happened there.

Mini Album




This is a mini album which I created this week. I had just got some lovely new Regency papers and wanted to use them in some way. I love these colours. The backing papers for the most part are coredinations in browns and greens and I have also used the new whitewash cardstock. I hope you like it.

Inspirational Card Sketches DT call











This is my entry for the design team call.


I have used a piece of K&Company pink paper onto which I have layered bronze embossed paper, lace and other ribbons. I have then topped the image with a piece of 6x6 paper which I cut to make a frame. The alphas are metal and have been coloured using alcohol inks in gold and espresso. The tag was distressed and embossed using distress embossing powder. The flowers are punched coloured and layered to add the final touch.

I hope you like it.
