Tri-Shutter Card

I had a lot of fun with this card, if you count banging my head against a wall for a solid hour, fun, lol! Okay maybe not a solid hour, but it felt like it! Still, I think it's turned out pretty well!

I used a bugaboo image and sentiment, coloured it with my promarkers and used glitter glue on the bubbles. The card base is cut from rich razzleberry card from Stampin' Up and the papers are also Stampin' Up, from the Razzleberry Lemonade pack.

I cut pretty much everything, except the butterflies with my cameo, the butterflies were punched and I added some gems to finish

Happy Birthday To Moo

I do love a good (or bad!) pun! Actually I may like bad ones better! lol!

I used images from Digi Doodle Shop, coloured with my promarkers, cut the card base and gingham paper (from papermania) on my cameo and cut the computer generated sentiment on there too. And of course gems, because gems are important! All in all, only 20 mins including the colouring, that may be a record for me!

Make A Wish!

Summer is seems has gone away again in Northern Ireland, it's been a drab, overcast and wet weekend, Anyone familiar with N.Ireland will know that the 12th of July is a big deal for a lot of people, but I try to avoid it, so most of my weekend was spent buried in blankets, reading and re-watching Babylon 5, I'd forgotten how much I love that show! I did get one card done Saturday which I'll post later, but first, this one I did this morning.

I used an image from Digital Delights by LoubyLoo, coloured with my promarkers - does that cupcake just look yummy? Colouring food always makes me hungry! lol! The papers from Trimcraft's Party Animals paper pad. Layered it all up on brown card and finished it with a few gems (I know, you're all shocked).

Belated Birthday

I know I'm not the only person who ever forgets a birthday - in my case I'll often remind myself weeks before and then forget again! - so it's always handy for me to have a couple of belated birthday cards in for those oops I forgot to put a card in the post and your birthday is like today, moments! I forgot to snap a pic of the inside, but it says... I just forgot the date!

I used a computer generated sentiment and celeste amberglow from pollycraft, coloured of course with my promarkers. The papers were freebies I got in a magazine at some point or another, I can't remember where or when and layered on brown card.

I cut some pennants with my cameo and finished it of with a few gems - I almost didn't, but I can't resist adding gems! lol!

Baby Congratulations

Who doesn't love a new baby coming into the world? But what I love less, is when the parents don't want to tell you the sex and what colour do you do? Gender neutral can have it's benefits! These papers are from Authentique and are a little bolder than I'd usually use for a baby card, but actually, I like it.

The image is from Digi Doodle Shop, the image panel and the layer was cut on my cameo and the image was coloured with my promarkers. I kept the embellishments simple, with just a few gems.

It's Your Day

I used an image from Pollycraft, coloured in my promarkers. The papers are from The Paper Stack magazine. The sentiment was cut on my cameo, as were the ovals and I added a bit of ric-rac ribbon, some twine and a few gems to finish it.

Party 'til the Cows Come Home

I used Birthday Cow from Whimsy Stamps, coloured it with my promarkers and I added a computer generated sentiment. The papers are from Recollections Festival Floral paper pack, layered on brown card. I love how bright and bold these papers are! Finally I added three punched stars and three little gems to finish it off.
