Weddings

The theme at Sunday Postcard Art is not surprisingly weddings. My card features a photo of my uncle and aunt from their wedding 52 years ago, a bit of glass painting and some spray mist in the background.

Thre Muses: Flowers

A slight break from festive themed challenges with The Three Muses challenge Flowers. Here's my entry.

Stamps: Hero Arts painted with Twinkling H2Os. Embossing: Cuttlebug. Letters: American Crafts.

Lots To Do: Free Theme

There's a free theme over at Lots to Do, so I'm sharing a card I made recently for a friend's wedding.
The glitter letters are by American Crafts. The flowers - Hero Arts Peakin Posies stamps - were painted with Twinkling H2Os and sprinkled with glitter. Background paper by Stampington.

Wedding card

Just a quickie: went to a wedding in Ireland at the weekend - fabulous. Here is the card I created. I created a couple of shrink plastic tiles with a key and a bird's nest; the glittery letters are by American Crafts Thickers, and I used a sonnet by Shakespeare plus some gold embossing.

Animals and Die Cuts

Yippee found some time for crafting today and made four cards and two scrapbook layouts.

Layers of Color's latest challenge is to create a card that uses a stamp and a farmyard animal. Here is my sheep card. The flowers in the background are from the meadow flowers themeplate by Elusive Images (I love it). I created a sheep shape on card and used cotton wool to represent its fleece. The greeting is on vellum underneath the green ribbon.

Meanwhile Caardvarks has a die cuts challenge. A challenge indeed when you don't possess a die cutting gadget. However, I have plenty of die cuts in my stash from when I used to buy Let's Make Cards, so I created a wedding card adding some glitter glue and using a die but frame by Bam Pop along with die cut cake and glasses.

Love, romance, weddings

Theme Thursday has the wonderful theme of Love, Romance, Weddings. Here is my card, which uses an image of my late grandparents' wedding in the 1930s.
