Male birthday card


Happy Birthday Rick! And thanks to Lynnette Couper for the awesome tutorial on this card.
Using Whisper White and Baja Breeze cardstock, Windsor Knot Designer Series Paper and Baja Breeze Designer buttons. Extras are: Stampin' Dimensionals and Handsome Hunter Green for Faux Stitching. I also used a smidgen of Baja Breeze Ink and a sponge for the edges.
First attempt and I'm quite proud of myself - will try again next week but tuck the tie into the wasitcoat.

This set is using as above but with Real Red card stock and is a gift for Miss Wilson who is in the class next door and also a very dear friend of ours as well as care giver for Alex - she is just amazing.



Craft Night


Miss T's leaving gift from Alex.

Well Alex leaves school tomorrow - so I made a couple of wee things for him to take to school. The two cards are from Paula Dobson but changed a little to suit my needs/colours. Using SU products: Pixie Pink, Basic Black and Whisper White card stock with Basic Black Ribbon. Stamp Set is Pocket Silouettes. I have also used the 1 inch circle punch.

I also made a "box in a bag" to match. (please note the DSP is not SU). But colours are the same as above and match perfectly. Have also used Cottage Garden stamp set, scallop straight edge punch and designer brads.
