wedding card

Paper - Bo Bunny;

Letters & Buttons - American Crafts;

Gems - Papermania;

Ribbon, Card, Embroidery thread - Hobby Craft

After cutting the paper to size, I used the sewing machine to make a border around the edge of the pattered paper and pulled through the ends to make it tidy. Then arranged the self adhesive letters onto the paper. Next threaded the buttons and used glue dots to fix, also used these to stick on the ribbon bow. Finally stuck the gems to top and bottom corners and then fixed the whole thing to the front of the card with double sided tape.

This card is going to Glen & Claire, hope they have a perfect day, the weather is beautiful today which certainly helps. Can't wait to see them later!

happy anniversary

It's our 3rd wedding anniversary, so I made this card. Did it quite quickly, but it was about the message I wanted to write inside the card :)

father's day

This is the card I made for my dad this morning!! I couldn't get myself going on the card yesterday, but found this site where I managed to get the car image for free :) so thank you to Meljen's designs for that! I haven't used any digital images before as I haven't had any suitable programs on my laptop and sometimes have issues with my printer, not sure why. Anyway I managed to get a program called open office from someone at work a couple of weeks ago which is very similar to ms office, so thought I would give it a go. This is my card;
