Two new cards - Easter

I made these two cards yesterday. I've used the free stamps from the April issue of 'Cardmaking and Papercraft'. I've coloured in the images using watercolours. For the top card I've used acetate as the base card and placed a piece of green paper directly behind the front so it covers the double sided tape. For the bootom card i've added the same flower paper inside the card for the insert and added the butterfly embellishments - with out them the card looked quite plain.

Mother's Day card


I made another card today. I made my mum's mothers day card.
I usually make her cards using the same colours - pinks, lilacs or cream- so i thought i'd make it green.

The top flower is a creamy colour and the second flower is a lovely green. I've used a silver heart brad to fasten them to the card. The strip of paper is light green and i've embossed it with stylizeed flowers. Then i added green gems.


*the card looks a lot better in real*

New card


This is a card that I've made today, it was meant to be my 'Mother's Day' card for my mum but I'm going to make her another one.

I've used two large flowers and fastened them with a heart brad - the brad was silver so i just coloured it gold with a gold pen- the paper behind the flowers has been embossed with the cuttlebug 'stylized flower' and the gold paper behind that is crinkled. I then added four amber coloured gems to the corners.

new card


I made this card using the 'stylized flowers' cuttlebug embossing folder. I've embossed the base card and matched up the design when placing the lilac paper onto the card.
