Friendship Card

On Ann'spaperart forum we are playing a game called the punishment game, if we use certain  banned words during the month that the forum has banned we get a punishment, the punishment is to make a card and send it to a member of Ann's forum, we call it a Secret Squirrel card, or an SS card, because no other member knows who will receive the card until it arrives, this is the Easel card I made for Annalie in South Africa, I used Ann's Paper Art pattern No a653, and also the letter A from  Ann's Paper Art pattern No a2068, I also used a Memory Box flower Die for the flower and added a pearl brad to the centre.  The paper that I have stitched onto is from Craftwork Cards.

Birthday card for my Niece

I had a lot of fun making this card for my Niece, I decided I wanted to make her a card with something on it that was a big part of her teenage years, she was a big fan of Betty Boop and still is, so I used a picture that I had and die cut it to fit the pattern that I have used, the pattern No is APA pattern No a0333 I stitched it in a Black and Gold thread and a Red and Gold thread, I glittered the earings and bracelet (OMG, What a mess I made all over the dining room table, I can't believe how much glitter spreads all over the place, and I only used a little bit) and then added some gold sparkly gems and black matt gems, at the bottom I added the Card candy in black and gold, and on the top corners I Die cut the swirly corners from Black mirri card using a Memory Box corner Die which I think tied it all together very nicely, I matted it onto gold Mirri card and them mounted it onto Black pearlescent cardstock, I decided to photograph the card and then made the insert with the same picture on it, My Niece was so thrilled with her card, it was well worth all the effort.

Birthday Card

I made this card using Ann's paper art pattern No a0338, I used an Art Deco Die cut  image and matched the colour of the threads to the colours in the image, I used cream linen card to stitch onto, I then mounted it onto purple mirri card , added a little straight border peel off, and then mounted it onto cream linen card. I hope you like my card.

CARD OF THE WEEK

OMG, What a lovely surprise I got when I logged onto Ann's paper Art forum, I WON CARD OF THE WEEK with this card, I made it for one of the members of my craft group, it's her birthday next month, so I hope she doesn't look at my blog before her birthday. I really enjoyed making this card and playing with my dies, Ann's Alphabet pattern fits beautifully in this die. Thankyou to the team of Ann's forum for choosing my card as the weekcard.
