Alien birthday card

Happy Birthday Alien Card.
Something a bit different. To create the background for the image, I dabbed a cotton bud in clear embossing ink then all over my paper, then got a green with multi coloured speckles embossing powder, and heat embossed. I wasn't sure this would work with a cotton bud, so was quite pleased when it did.

Triple easel card

I was recently asked to make a engagement card, for a ladies son and soon to be daughter in-law.
With out knowing any of these people personally, and " something different " being the only thing to go on, this is what I came up with. My customer said she wanted there names on the card to make it personal.

I hope you all like this as much as the recipients did.

Valentines Card

Happy Valentines everyone.
I made this card for my Husband, last night so he didn't peek round the craft room door.

Firstly I choose the image and coloured it in, with promarkers.
Then I folded an A4 piece of cardstock in half, and inked the edges with a coordinating colour.
then came basic matting and layering with gold miri card and a burgundy hammered piece of card, and a piece of backing paper from a recent purchase from Kanban, the image was used in the same way but firstly I inked the edges with the chisel tip of my promarker. I thought the off set layers were more effective than just square, but I know some people prefer to have things level. 
To finish of this card I put a feather behind the main topper I created, a love sentiment that looks like a token from the fair, and some pearls at the edges.

I really hope you like this card.
