CPS123



Well, this has been a long time in the making! I did one card, put it up on the computer and really didn't like it so started again! I am much happier with this card, I like the colours I have used and I tried a technique of distressing the outside of the image which I was shown at the stamp fair at Newbury racecourse last weekend.

Twisted Thursday #17


This is my first attempt at a Twisted Thursday challenge. Being relatively new to cardmaking I was very low on Xmas resources so had to hunt around, luckily I had just been given the angel stamp! I only have one disress ink which was the wrong colour for the papers I used... does distressing paper count? Enjoyed the challenge, will look out for others as long as the heatwave cools down so I can bear being in the study!

Dylan


Fancied being a bit creative for the new baby, so bought an mdf cut out of the letter d which I covered in wrapping paper then spelt out the rest of Dylan's name with smaller letters which I first stamped green then added some blue and red with the thin end of my 'Whispers strokes' pens. Finally added some embellishments. Really enjoyed making this, hope his mum and dad enjoyed recieving it!
