A few cards

Here are a few cards I have made over the last week, the one above is a friendship card for another docrafter. I have used my favourite tilda of the moment, coloured her with copics, for the border I used a MS  round the page punch, and the flowers are a gift from a friend. The 2nd card is for the Tilda challenge, again on docrafts, hosted by Jennie


I have had the handmade backing paper for quite a while, I think it was from WHS, same Tilda, again coloured with copics, and I used circle nesties and circle nellie snellen dies, flowers from wildorchid crafts and lace and ribbon from stash
                                                                
Finally the 3rd card is for the Gorguss Girl challenge, again on Docrafts, and I am hosting this challenge
 
,The challenge was for the card to be in shades of 1 colour plus white and to have some glitter on it. I used another MS punch, the flowers, which I have added glitter to are again from wildorchid crafts,and I also added some sparkle to her boots. Oh and she was also
 coloured with copics  
 Well I don't think I will get much crafting done next week, as this gorgeous little fellow         
 
and his mum (daddy has to work)are coming to stay for a few days, we haven't seen him since the 1st may, as he lives in Birmingham, so we are looking forward to spending time
with him, so bye for now Irene xx

Here are 2 cards,1 for my sons birthday,and the other for my daughter in law's birthday,yes they share the same birthday,but 2 years apart. I always feel that my male cards are missing something,probably because I cant use ribbons,lace and flowers

Another beautiful day today

Doesn't it make you feel good when the sun is shining,although I can't sit out in it,unless I want to be covered in big red blobs. Well here's a card I made yesterday

it's for my sons father-in-law, and as he always has a BBQ no matter  what the weather, I thought my new LOTV stamp would be ideal, As I couldn't use my
   usual flowers and ribbon,I used buttons and thread, and a bit of card candy, hope he likes it.

It's A Girl Thing

The image on this card is called "It's A Girl Thing " and it's a Sugar Nellie stamp from Funky Kits. I bought this stamp as 100% from sales go to a  UK Breast Cancer Charity,and as I am a survivor of this dreadful disease,I thought I would buy it. And now i've used it I love it,in fact it reminds me of one of my grandaughters.

I have coloured the image with copics
The papers were a gift from a friend
The pearls are from Joanne Sheen
And the flowers are Prima

 The next card I have to make is a male birthday card,so it could take me a while,I much prefere doing female cards
Well i'd better get my thinking cap on,so bye for now love Irene xx
