Baby Girl Card

I love paper piecing so I couldn't resist the Challenge over at Less is More. For this card I cut out the Giraffes twice in brown and pink card then cut  holes in the pink card so the brown would show through for the Giraffe's markings. All I had to do then was to stick the two layers together. I used Craft Artist for the backing using a freebie digi pack from Computer Scrapbook.com. It's worth checking out as there lots of lovely freebies there.

Birds & Butterflies Cascade Card

I really enjoy designing these Cascade type cards and for this one I've used Birds and Butterflies sitting among leaves all of which were cut on my Cameo.

 I am entering this in the Anything Goes challenge at Let's Craft & Create

Three New Cards

Hi everyone. I have had a busy few days but have managed to find time to get back to some crafting today between ironing and doing some housework and have come up with these three cards and backing papers. The colour on the photos is not quite right as I have had to buy a new camera and I haven't quite sussed out the settings for indoor photos yet - need to practice a bit more I think. I coloured the flowers on the middle card using promarkers not something I'm very adept at but I'm quite pleased with how they turned out.

Thanks to everyone who have left comments on my other cards - I really do appreciate it.

The templates are available on my website

No 1 Dad Freebie

This is a card I am entering in C.R.A.F.T. Challenge 159 - Father's Day. I created the design in Illustrator and then cut it on my Cameo machine. I didn't really have any suitable card for the topper so I made it in to a png file so that I could print and cut on my machine. I thought I would should share the cutting file as well as the png in case anyone else would like to use it for print and cut. For those without a machine but would like to use the topper you can print the png file straight on to your own card design. Personal use only please.

Flourish Freebie

This is the flourish  that I used on my You're Invited card. I have now made it in to a cutting file and you can use it as a frame or, without the middle cut out, as a topper. I have also done it as a png frame in gold, black and ruby for anyone to use the image as I did on my card. Hope it's of some use.

You're Invited Card

I love flourishes so I am entering this card in a challenge at Less is More - a one layer card using a Flourish. I am hopeless at stamping so I designed the flourish frame myself using Adobe Illustrator, saved it as a png file and then imported it in to Craft Artist where I found the other two flourishes and the lace ribbon. All I had to do then was to type the sentiment and print the card. So easy !! Then disaster struck - it's been one of those days. First off my broadband has been playing up and then when I came to take the photo my camera wouldn't work so I've had to scan the card. Anyway after all that it occurred to me that my flourish would make a nice cutting file so when I've converted it I'll upload it to share along with the png file.

Life's A Beach Flip Flop Freebie Topper

Well the weather in my neck of the woods is nothing like summer so I though this little topper might brighten up the day. The Flip flops aren't joined together, I just overlapped them on the card.Can't share the backing as it's not my design but I hope the topper will come in useful anyway.
