Bookmark cards

 I saw this type of card on a tutorial on pinterest. I've had a go and am totally hooked...its a card AND a present in 1! 



Here's another colour of the same card. Really cute eh?

A Wiper card for a camper

 A little while ago I had a sheet of stamps on a magazine. I was determined to use as many of them as possible. This tent and forest scene used a few of the images. Just for a change I decided to make a wiper card and this is it!


I really like this style of card and it's kinetic properties!

Gnome cards

 I love making cards with gnomes. They've been really popular this year! Here are 3 I've made recently...

These two are decoupage designs. The character sits on an acetate strip and the card lies flat for posting.



The second card is a stamped image on a card with a central panel. Once again it folds flat for posting.

Animal cards

This card was made using a stamp that I enlarged slightly. I coloured the image then rendered it in 3d. I applied faux pearls around the design and stuck it to a vintage paper on brown card attached to a cream card blank. 



 This cute goat card  is a prick and stitch design. I stuck a green "hill" shape to the bottom, pricked out the pattern then sewed it in. Then I tore some blue paper into cloud shapes which I applied around the goat. This stitched piece was put onto a brown matt on a white card blank.

3 Floral cards

 




These are 3 floral cards I've made recently. 

The first is decoupage with a stamped sentiment on the front.

The second are "incire" cards. The design was cut from a pattern and a stamped image adhered to the centre. I rendered that in 3d. 

The third is a form of iris folding that I learned years ago. 

I love all 3 designs and you can't beat flowers when sending a greeting!
