My August Cards

Been a busy bee again and here is my latest batch of cards - some of which are for Sale!


This one I made for my little 6 year old grandson Tom who had just undergone a minor operation in hospital.  He really liked it because it had some felt tractors on!



Here is a sympathy card that I made for my sister-in-law Jean who recently lost her mother.  I used a white base card and found some purple paper that has a black lace pattern on it then added a cut out oval.  I then added some white lillys that were decoupaged and then added a typed 'Sincere Condolences' tag.


This is a card I made for my Nephew James and his girlfriend Racheal on the birth of their first baby - A boy named Ryan James, he's only 5lb 10oz at birth so is still being kept an eye on at the hospital.
It has toppers of a picture of a little pair of feet, a teddybear and another little silver pair of footprints and also a baby boy tag. I placed them randomly on a white base card and just edged it with a blue border with silver footprints around two edges.



I used a white base card to which I added a navy blue hand-made paper envelope that I tore up!  I then placed a topper of a couple and embellished the lady's dress with little gems at the bottom and top of her dress. I then added a gold 'Happy Anniversary' sentiment and a cardboard heart in the top corner and some little hearts in the bottom left corner.



This is a cream base card to which I added a pink card that I had zig-zag scissored around the edge. I then added a pretty pink patterned paperbag I'd found and cut that around the edges too.  then I added a tag from my stash.  The watering can and bird are from a Henbury set I had. Then I put a little pink and white topper with a pink heart that says 'For You' and a stick on that says 'Perfect Day' on the bottom right corner.


I used a yellow base card and placed the set of blue spotted paper that belongs to the 'Hot Diggity Dog' freebie set I received. I placed this topper which is of a VW motorhome onto the same navy paper as stated before.  I also placed some green, pink and blue striped paper to compliment the colours in the topper. I added some sentiments of 'All The Best', Hello!, and a pink and blue tag on the bottom left corner.



This is a pink base card that I've used two Hot Diggity Dog toppers on.  I placed some pretty pink paper with a small pattern on the top and a pink and green pattern on the bottom in a little square, to which I added the 2nd champagne bottle topper.  I also added a 'Birthday Girl' tag in green and pink and a pink rose above that.  I then added a pink flower topper in the right top corner.

Apart from the ones that I've said are for certain people, I am willing to sell my cards, or make any individual cards if wanted for any occasions.  Please email or leave a message to me.
