POINSETTIA CHRISTMAS FAIRY GROTTO CARD

Here's the other Grotto Card I made using the Christmas Fairies Grotto CD Rom by Debbi Moore.




BABY RYLIE CARD

Here's a card I made yesterday for my Fiance's niece who's due date is mid January but apparently the baby is likely to be born within a week.

The cute Teddy Bear topper is from Crafter's Companion's Mulberry Wood CD, the card shape template and the box are both from My Craft Studio's Encyclopaedia.  


  


I would like to enter this card in Joanna Sheen's Blog Challenge 'New Beginnings'.  http://joannasheenchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/

FAIRY QUEEN GROTTO CHRISTMAS CARD

I made three of the six cards from Debbi Moore's Christmas Fairy Grotto Cards CD Rom, the Rose Fairy (in an earlier post), Poinsettia (will be added tomorrow) and this one, the Fairy Queen.
As with all the Art Deco themed cards by Debbi Moore, I added lots of glitter and gems and I put a battery operated T-light inside.

As you can see; I made a matching box to present it to the recipient (my sister) in.

ART DECO CHRISTMAS CARD

Just made a Christmas card for my niece, featuring a lovely Art Deco lady which is the artwork of Gordon Fraser, a very talented artist.  

I added gold glitter to the 3D poinsettia and the border and, of course, to the jewellery and finished off with a few flat back pearls.  This is truly stunning, love the artwork.



The lovely mini kit does not contain an insert so I did my own in my graphics programme by simply deleting the lady from the centre and adding my own text.


HOLLY & SNOW SCENE 8 X 8 CARD

I have just finished my last few Christmas cards.

This one has decoupage, I've added fine glitter for the snow and also added some green and red flat back pearls.

The colours are really vibrant and the finished card is lovely.

If you're interested you will find the kit at this link: craftsuprint.com

The kit did not contain an insert so I have made my own using the card topper in my graphics programme.

Mountain Bike Stepper Card


I made this centre stepper card using a decoupage sheet from Craftsuprint.com, the artist is Gordon Fraser who does a lot of artwork for Debbi Moore Designs.



On The Shelf Wedding Card

I was asked to make a wedding card so chose this one, an On The Shelf style card.

I added lots of large flat back pearls, an organza ribbon bow, a net butterfly, wedding rings embellishment etc.  The person who ordered it was really pleased and even paid me a bit more than what I quoted (which was nice) and the married couple apparently loved the card too.
