Another Baby Boy

Everybody's having baby boys! This is the third card in the last week I have made to welcome in a little.

I have used the gorgeous Bambino digi from Sugar Nellie again (and I thought I wouldn't get much use out of it!). Coloured with Promarkers of course. The backing sheet was from a selection of Christmas papers but I think it works well.

I made the frame from textured paper, used holographic embossing powder and then glossy accent over the top.

Chic Birthday card

A card made for a friends birthday. Topped is from stash, flowers were a blog candy win and the backing is from Hobby Craft.

Play Up Pompey!!!

Another ordered card for fathers day. This time for a Pompey FC card.

I downloaded the crest and used Glossy Accents on it (brought my first bottle at the weekend and LOVE it, want to use it on everything!)

The backing paper has been in my stash for ages and I used some peel offs for the sentiment. I was going to add more but actually like the simplicity of this (and so does the girl who ordered it).

Leaving card

One of our engineers is leaving us this Friday so time again to get in the craft room. Wanted to go for something that matches the job and as he is a computer engineer I thought this free colouring page was perfect.

 

The backing paper was a freebie download and the image is coloured with promarkers. I tried to match his top to our company top colour but it didn't come out quite right.

Fishing Fathers day card

Another fathers day card made to order. My colleague ordered the card on the Wednesday for his partners dad. He went home and his partner asked where the card was. He explained that it is a handmade card. His partner looked at him blankly. He had to explain that I needed to actually make it. I know I am quick, but not that quick!

They are really pleased with it though.

Papermania stamp (these are really popular with those that order from me). Used a funky check backing which is from papermania and coloured with promarkers.

Kept the background of the image quite plain this time and I did matting and layering with some cheap card stock from Hobbycraft (yep, sometimes "cheap" and "hobbycraft" can be used in the same sentence without adding "not").

Deliberately coloured the sign slightly sketchy to try and give it rustic effect.

Another baby boy card

I was asked to make another baby boy card so was incredibly glad I invested in the Bambino stamp from Sugar Nellie.

Image coloured with Promarkers and I glittered the bobbles. I had a decorated apperture card that I cut out to frame the image.

The backing paper is from a set I brought from Hobbycraft. The bow was one that was in my stash.

Twin Baby card

One of the directors has just had twins (well his wife did anyway) and, as always, I made the communal card. I love making them for work for all the different occasions and it gives me more excuses to make cards.

I wanted to make something really nice rather than cutesy. I have used the gorgeous Bambino digi stamp from Sugar Nellie and flipped it so both babies were facing opposite directions.

Coloured with promarkers (as always). The backing was a freebie from somewhere and the edges were on a some card my auntie gave me.

I used peel offs around the image and for the wording and some blue ribbon and mirror board and sticky gems.
