two more B/cards

2009-08-21T18:43:00.006+01:00

I have made a couple more birthday cards for peeps upcoming birthdays. The first one I made using A DB kit I had forgotten about that I found searching for something else. I used a green card and put a spotted vellum overlay on it then added the tulip shapes and leaves on.

The second one I used a stamped image of a beautiful lady which I coloured in with water colour pencils in blue. The butterfly I used the same pencils to colour it.I then triple embossed it to give it a shiny fiish and edge it with gold ink. Mounted it on blue satin finish card and then added peeloffs.

another birthday card.

This is a card made for a friend of mine. I have used an image from a CD I got from the Nec last year. I mounted the image onto some gold mirri card.The background is from the same CD and then I added peeloffs on to finish off. I think this little girl is gorgeous.
