Christmas Stitched Card


I made this card using Ann's Paper Art embroidery
die AND003 from Nellie Snellen, I'm planning to
make a lot more with this die, as it is so versatile.
I thought it might be nice with a famliy photo in the
centre. The image is from SB paper and I added
 some adhesive pearls. I am entering this in MIM#147

Christmas Photo Carousel


Like Loz I thought I'd give it a go at
making the carousel from the Docrafts
Magazine. I made it a bit smaller, but
it still seems to be too big. I think it
might make a good table centre piece for
the Christmas table, and yes the little
girl in the photo is me! Taken in Myers
Melbourne over half a century ago.

punchies, adhesive rhinestones, die cuts and peel-off
sentiment.

Embroidered Congratulations Card


This is my effort this week, which took me quite some
time to embroider. I'm tossing up whether it will be a
wedding or an engagement card? I just added some
paper flowers and peel-off sentiment.

Birdhouse Tri-fold Card


Last week I was going some old craft magazines,
and I found this idea. It took me most of yesterday
to work out the roof shapes, I kept on getting it 
wrong and used up a lot of card. When I got it 
right I added die cuts, pearls, peel-off sentiment 
and a owl charm.

I have scanned an expanded a view, just in case anyone
wants to give it a go!

Stained Window Card


Another weekend gone! Where does the time go!
I made this card today using my new Spellbinders 
window die, I cut out some acetate and stained it
with alcohol pens, punched out some poinsettias, 
I made the background using a brick embossing 
folder, highlighted with some glitter glue and added
a Merry Christmas peel-off.

Floral Card


At first I didn't know where I was going with this card,
I wanted to create petals with heart die cuts. I added
a brad in the centre, I'm not sure what I think of it!
Anyhow I made it with die cuts, rhinestones, glitter glue
and a peel-off sentiment.
