Xmas Cards

We are playing a game on Ann's paper art Forum, if we say certain Banned  words we have to take a punishment, unfortunately for me, I did say the Banned word so my punishment was to make two xmas cards by today and upload them onto Ann's Forum using pattern No a 522, these are the two cards I made.

Diamond Anniversary Card

I was stuck for a card to make for a neighbours brother, so I asked Ann from Ann's Paper art if she could help, so she very kindly designed this pattern for me, the pattern No is a 627, I can't thank Ann enough for doing this for me, it's a beautiful pattern.

LOVE IS

Well what can i say, it's been a while since i made a card, but we have been very busy with redecorating our lounge, we still have a few finishing touches to make, and my craft cupboard needs to be finished, then i can get back to what i love, my stitching. At the moment most of my craft things are still in boxes, so I'm trying to work with what i have at hand, so when i ordered my HJ 75 this is the first pattern i chose to stitch, it is Ann's pattern and i love it, this is going to be stitched quite a lot, it looks good enough to eat and as a cupcake lover it was the perfect pattern for me. I have used my 6x6 Dovecraft cupcake papers as the backing, then i die cut the stitched pattern and inked around the edges and added some gold hobbydots to the strawberry, then added some card candy in the chocolate and marshmallow colours to the corners.
