One for fun

 If you haven't guessed by now I have a thing for daisies and this card was another for fun but later was used as a birthday by adding a sentiment to the central circle.the foliage was stamped on green vellum for a softer look and the gate fold style just added a little different interest to a normal side fold card.flowers and foliage from Chloe's creative cards.

For me

 This I made for fun as I have a thing about daisies and her bras and this large flower to me was perfect. I added foliage and placed on layers of hexagons on a base card of white. The large flower and foliage are from Chloe's creative cards.

Mum's 80th

 My mum's 80th birthday card had to be special, so had to have anemones as they have a special meaning to her. The card is a fairly simple design but had impact being an A5 sized card. The flowers and foliage from Chloe's creative cards.

Peachy hat

I had so much fun making this hat card in peach, rich yellow,gold and white.

The hat is an easel card so is displayed on a tilt and the plaque for the sentiment or your personal message acts as the wedge that holds the tilted hat in place.

I used this card as a mothers day card and my mum loved it.

Best mum ever

A barrow full of blooms for the best mum ever. This card folds flat for posting and has a fold at the card centre which when the outer edges are brought forward the card stands with the sentiment banner bowed so the card stands up unsupported.

 Plenty of space to write your special message and no doubt as to who the card is for.

As if by magic

When my brother was little he used to love watching Mr Ben and would try to guess where the magic door would take Mr Ben.

My bother tried to make out  he didn't remember who Mr Ben was when his 2 teenage sons asked but the smile on his face as he opened the envelope said different.

 

Steelers

Commissioned 21st

This commissioned card came with a photo, the young man himself had recently visited Kenya to take part in tagging endangered rhinos as an extra curriculum suggested activity for his university course. His dad who commissioned the card requested the card to have the young man in his pithe hat and a rhino on the card along with 21st birthday wishes.

His dad loved the card

 and so did his son.

Veg out and relax

 Making cards for my dad is hard nas he doesn't have many interests other than TV and horse racing and there are only so many variations you can do on a theme,so it was time to think outside of the box and this is what I came up with. I am not 100%that he liked it but it did make him laugh so I took it as a win. The stamps I have had for ages and I think they came from memory box.
