Big Leafy Hugs

Evening,

I do love Alcohol inks, they work perfectly on such a wide variety of products including metallic cardstock.

I used gold metallic card for the embossed panel on this card,

which I coloured using alcohol inks.

I also added plenty of die cut leaves, shaped,

and then added using silicon glue for extra dimension.

I also added a rather dramatic sentiment across the embossed panel.

Thanks for stopping by.

Spooky

Evening,

I spent the morning with my Mum and Sister looking through a load of old photos. We did have a laugh (old hair styles mainly) and a reminisce about long forgotton friends and family. 

I found several photos from my school days and suggested that I really ought to share them on the school Facebook page to see if anyone remembers our time in the 6th Form. How spooky that when I opened up Facebook this evening an old friend (and my chief bridesmaid) had posted something on that very website!! So that gave me a very tenuous link to tonight's rather spooky card lol.

I gave it to my youngest Granddaughter for her birthday in October.

The spiders web is a rather large die from my stash

I love the leaves that were die cut from handmade papers. I also added a little gilding wax for added texture.

Chloe loves to go for a walk among the leaves so this seemed very appropriate.

I really must post those pictures tomorrow and see if anyone else from school pops up.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday Andy

Evening

We have a birthday in the family today, so here is a card for the Birthday Boy.

I have used a piece of handmade background paper

and several leafy die cuts.

The white background panel has been dry embossed using a fern 3D embossing folder.

A nice masculine card I think you will agree.

Thanks for stopping by.

A Day To Celebrate

Evening,

Today is my Sin-in-Law's birthday, and this is the card that I sent him.

The background was created using a stencil, paste and spray inks.

I added a stamped and gold embossed sentiment

along with a coordinating stacked die cut.

I added a pile of die cut leaves to the bottom of the card for added dimension.

I'm hoping that he has had a stress free day at work, but I think that might be wishful thinking.

Thanks for stopping by.
