Crafty Place swing card

Here's the card I sent to Furrypig for this months challenge which was to make a swing card or a card with a swing on it.

MSE scrap paper and die cut challenge

The challenge this week was to make a card using bits of scrap paper and diecuts.

The paper is didtressed vines from funky fairys they were bits left from another card I made I joined the pieces with some silver peel off borders. The image is a new stamp I bought called Lily - I Love Shopping by Rachelle Anne Miller and coloured with promarkers. The flowers are the new eline ones from prima coloured with promarkers, I have highlighted the embossed bits with a silver gel pen and finished with silver card candy. The swirls are cut from a left over piece of mirri card with my cuttlebug.

So 1 down 2 left to do now I just need a good use for all the hundres of matchs I have got lol.

MSE challenge

Thankyou cards

This was a sample to see if the bride and groom liked the design. I have used my cuttlebug to emboss the card for this thankyou card. The stamp was one I got from my local shop stamped in silver and mounted on some silver card. A piece of blue ribon tied at the top and finished with a silver heart brad and then the ribbon at the bottom should be blue to but didn't have enough to make this sample card so used white again finished with a brad. Just got to make 40 of them now.
