It's a Boy!

I was holding off adding another picture until I'd sorted out my watermarking but as I haven't found 5 minutes to do that yet - here is a baby card from last week so you all know I am still here!

This was a request from work.  I initially looked out images of all the baby cards I have done and stamps I have not used yet - seem to have quite a lot!

The choice made was for this 8x8" card.

The base has a square of blue card with some lovely patterned vellum on top attached with brads.

Some Forever Friends decoupage and then a Congratulations peel off mounted at the top.

Peel offs also used to add the date and weight and this circle is mounted on a blue scalloped circle which I have used with silver thread to make a spirelli shape.

Thank You

This is a card I made earlier in the week for a colleague who took early retirement at work and who very kindly took a group of us out to lunch so we wanted to send her a card.

The paper is from a Forever Friends pack I think. The images are from a Lets Make Cards mag - the person concerned is a Gromit fan and there is an in joke about a bike with a basket so they are very suitable!

The images are mounted on a punched oval which is layered on a punched scalloped oval which I have 'spirellied'.

Finished with a Thank You stamp and a spot of card candy.

And, I can thoroughly recommend the Ilchester Arms for a spot of lunch!!
