Then there were three....

Yes here is another three cards - one, I had done a couple of weeks ago for my youngest daughter Laura, for when she was taking her driving test... Well she failed the first one, so I had to keep it hidden until she took it again on Friday.....and yes she passed!!!!  When I gave her the card (after she had driven herself to my house) she was so impressed with it that it made my day!

I chose a yellow base card and placed some blue paper that I had used my heart's border punch all around the edges.  The topper is a decoupaged blue mini car (which Laura has!)  I also added some little embellishments in the 4 corners of the card which I had put little pearls on and a little blue gingham bow.  I then stamped the 'Congratulations' on it in purple and then used a letter cutout for the words Laura and You Passed!


This was a pink base card and I used a purple paper that had 'especially for you' all over it.  I then used some of the purple and gold card that I had used for my brother's anniversary card - just a little square of it and then placed in gold stick on letters 'Get Well Soon'.  I then placed a little square topper on to that with a lilac flower on it and embellished it with two little gems.  I then added a lovely filligree butterfly up in the top right hand corner with a purple gem in the middle of it.



I chose a white base card and this was another in the Hot Diggity Dog range that I've got and this one shows several dogs looking at a prize cup with a little puppy in it - very charming!
I placed that on with foam pads onto blue card that I had cut around with my wavy scissors.  I added a little embellishment of a flower and bow and a sentiment that says birthday wishes.

I'm just off to make some more cards as I have heard of my sister-in-Law's mother's death, also my nephew James has just become a dad to a baby boy named Ryan James!
