Birthday Card for my 'Granny-in-law'


Here's a birthday card I made recently for my hubby's Granny - I used a pre-printed card (think its Kanban?) kindly donated by Glittermum and using my Cuttlebug I cut two Scallop circles, the pink oval & pink flow and the letters for 'Granny' - the image is a freebie I downloaded and I'm sorry but I can't remember where from!! I coloured it in photoshopto match the printed card & then printed and used stickles glitter in the centre of the flowers & Glossy accents on the flower petals & leaves & also on the 'Granny' letters, the 'Birthday Wishes' sentiment is a pre-printed one from CraftworkCards - really pleased with how it turned out especially the image!!

Couple of Neutral DaisyBabeeCakes...

Well I have been busy making Christmas cards for an order for my mum!! Here are 9 completed so far - only got another 21 to make!! Love this penguin which was a freebie from Pollycraft!! My Cuttlebug has been put to good use as I have used it to make the scallop circles, the oval sentiment tags, the holly & also used the swiss dots embossing folder for two of the card blanks as well as some of the scallops!! I made the snowflakes using my new Martha Stewart punch bought at the NEC last friday and I love it! I have got another 4 cards almost completed so will post photos once done!!
