Be my valentine

I always enjoy making valentines cards for some reason and this year i am really pleased with the one i have made for Andy. The shape of it just came to me one night in bed, it was just a case of putting it all together.

30th Birthday card

It is my friends 30th birthday in February so i have made a special card for her. It is A4 in size and of course i've used Forever Friends decoupage.

Time to update the blog

I thought it was about time i updated my blog. I have been busy making cards this week as i have been on holiday. I have mainly made cards for Cancer Research. Docrafts chosen charity for this year, details can be found here if you would like to help out.

Any way here are some of the cards i have made so far.

Forever Friends different shaped card and sketch card

The last few weeks Forever Friends challenge cards from me.





Have used some of the FF stickers for both of these cards. The top card is corrugated card which I've had for ages. Not used because of the shape but i think it works well here. The second is following a sketch over on the FF challenge blog. Finished off with Prima flowers and a brad. I've inked around the edges of the paper too.

Forever Friends Easter card & St Georges day card

Haven't had the chance to update my blog in a while so thought it was about time I did whilst I have a few minutes spare. Over the past 2 weeks the challenges on the Forever Friends blog have been Easter and St Georges day. For St Georges day the theme was red and white. These are the cards I made for these challenges.

This weeks FF Challenge

Over on the Forever Friends challenge blog this week it is all about A Gift For Someone. The simple rules being to make a gift other than a card. I was a little stumped on this one at first but then i decided to make a photo frame. I've used some old thick cardboard I had lying around, Clare Curd paper's, prima flowers and some red buttons from my stash. I've then finished it off with a FF sticker.

Happy Easter

The year is passing by so quickly. Can't believe it's nearly easter! Have just been making this card using a Penny Black image I received in a swap some time ago. I've used Basic Grey papers and water colour pencils to colour the image in. The hoppy easter stamp is also something I received in a swop. I think it's another Penny Black one but not entirely sure. Have finished it off with some heart shape gems in the bottom right corner.
