Sewing themed birthday card

Hello,
I made this card for my Mum for her birthday. I chose the sewing theme as she'd taught me to sew when I was a child. I used various elements from the Aspire Sew Pretty kit and cut the main topper into a shape using the Spellbinder's Labels 31 die. I finished it off with a bow made from tape measure ribbon and a button. My Mum was surprised when she opened it as it's not my usual style but was very pleased with the sewing theme.

21st birthday shutter card

Hello,
this is a special card made for my niece's 21st birthday. It's a shutter card made using the Tonic Liberty die cut from cream card, which I'd embossed using the Tonic Amelia folder. I used the Tonic Liberty die set to cut decorative panels from cream and gold card. The numbers were cut from cream using the Tonic Baldur die set and mounted on gold ovals cut using the Tonic Art Nouveau layering die set. I cut two sets of letters from cream and gold card using the Tonic Pretoria set so I could inset the cream into the gold letter frame. The Happy Birthday sentiment is a Tattered Lace one.

I also made a box from cream and gold card and used the remaining letters on the box lid.

Thanks for stopping by.

Pink floral birthday card

Hello,
it's been a long time since I last posted as although I've made a few cards I've been visiting family and also been on holiday. So now it's time to play catch up!

This is a birthday card I made for my mother-in-law using elements from the Hunkydory Floral Enchantment paper collection. I matted and layered pink polka dot paper which matched the elements used from the kit on to silver mirror board, and then the floral and butterfly die cut elements using foam pads to give some dimension. I finished it off with a matching tag, pink organza bow and paper rose. She was very pleased with the card.
