First of three

This for one of the instructors who is on maternity leave at the moment. She is a very quiet, genteel girl so I thought this stamp by Kanban fit the bill nicely. I cut a large die from a set by Go Create plus the slightly small one for the paper by LOTV. I gently distressed the edge using tea dye. The large 21 is by Woodware 21st Birthday which I paper pieced with scraps from my stash. The stamp and greeting I have embossed and coloured with copics and just added a thin line of silver Stickles glitter glue. The flourish dies are by Cheery Lynn and I think the flower die is too.

For the Bride

My son asked me to make a card for him to give to his bride on their big day in a few weeks time. It is to go with a beautiful present he has bought for her.. I let him choose from my catalogue of stamps and he chose this lovely Kanban stamp. He wanted it fairly plain but still with a bit of bling so this is what I came up with!

The fan of the dress I havedone in white very fine glitter. 

The body is done in very fine black glitter. The hat is black and white. I have added a diamanté at the top of the fan and at the nape of the hat. It was mounted onto black card to which I have also added a small diamanté heart in alternate corners. A LOTV sentiment 'On your Wedding Day' mounted onto black added underneath. Both were mounted onto cream card which has a pearlised flower swirl pattern on it. He has written his own tribute to her which I have still to type out and insert.     

Get Well Soon

My friend's son John down in Cornwall had an accident at work last week and is in hospital with a crushed leg so I just had to make him a card.

The image and sentiments are from Kanban stamps and coloured with copics. The background papers  are from LOTV. Wishing you a speedy recovery John x
