A lovely sketch

I really enjoyed doing this sketch I chose to use one of my Penny Black stamps, 3867K Constellations. It is one of my favourites. I stamped it on a textured card and layered it over a piece of scrapbooking paper from my stash. The flowers are punched and tinted slightly.

Makes a change from Christmas cards

I have used a textured card as the base. The top section is a mottled pink which I have stamped with Plum Archival Ink and PB 2642K Daisy Pattern. Finished off with ric-rac braid, a crocheted flower with a gem in the centre, and a happy birthday peeloff

One for the boys

I haven't done a man's card for a wee while, so when I saw the challenge at
http://southerngirlschallenge.blogspot.com/
I was inspired to use this stamped image with the red background embossed with the c/b and a piece of ribbon attached with staples.

Mostly white!

This card looks so elegant IRL!
I have embossed with my C/B and used a piece of this lovely cameo paper to set into the centre. Finished off with some embosed ribbon tied in a bow. It could be used for a wedding or engagement card.
