None Christmas

Hi There

Today I would like to share two non-Christmassy cards with you.



Both these cards are made on 7x5" card blanks.
The toppers are from LOTV, although I have stamped around the edges.
The paper is left over from a mini book I recently made at the Stamp Pad.

Gwen has stared to run a monthly 'Book Club'.

Thanks for stopping by. 
I appreciate all comments you may have on my creations.

Get Well Soon

Hi There

Today I would like to share with you a card I made for my Godmother when she was poorly recently.
She was taken ill andadmitted to hospital in Scotland where she lives. I couldn't get there (about 5 hour car journey!) and I couldn't send flowers (as they are not allowed in the hospital). So I decided to send a card.


As usual recently, the card base is a 6x6" card blank.
I backed everything onto Pink Bazzill cardstock. 
The papers are from the 'Heartfelt' paper pack from LOTV.
The topper is also from LOTV.
A small doily pops out from behind the image to make a pocket.
In the pocket is a tag cut with a Marianne Die.

Thanks for stopping by.

Babies First Christmas

Hi There

Today I would like to share with you a couple of cards I have made for a Baby's first Christmas.


This first one is a 6x6" card blank
The papers are from Lili of the Valley 'Pastel Dreams' paper pad.
The image os from the LOTV Christmas Cuties XL Art Pad.
Clear gems from my stash.


This next card is a 7x5" card blank.
Again the papers are from LOTV Pastel Dreams Paper pad.
Once again the image is from the Christmas Cuties XL Art Pad.
Gems again from my stash.

I am finding that if I get papers to match an image it is helpful, 
and quicker to make a couple of cards in the same colours.

Thanks for stopping by.

Another Christmas Card

Morning

Today I would like to share another card I have made using the Lili of the Valley XL Christmas Art Pads.
If you look at yesterdays post you will see that the two cards look kinda similar. This is because I am trying to make more that one card, as the bits and pieces all match colour wise. I am also hoping that this will help my mojo and the number of cards I make.


Again I have used a 6x6" card blank.
Blue cardstock embossed with 'Let it Snow' embossing folder.
Let it Snow grungy Christmas Messages.
Paper from 'Father Knows Best' paper pad.
Small brown gems in each corner.

Thanks for stopping by. 
I appreciate all comments you may have on my creations.
