Birthday Card

I made this Birthday card for a friend on Ann's paper art forum, I used Ann's Pattern No a0652, I decided I wanted ta blue theme  this time,  I used the Tatty Teddy Die cut decoupage and added a ribbon and some gems to finish.

NEW Ann's Paper Art Pattern

This is one of the NEW patterns from Ann's Paper Art for this month, it's a beautiful pattern to stitch, the Pattern No is A656, click on the pattern No and it will take you to Ann's paper Art Webshop.

I stitched this pattern in a rose pink thread and a green thread, I have also used a circle Die and a Milly Stamped image for the little girl,  and coloured it in using Pro Markers. I Die Cut the roses using the Lea'bilities Rose Die, which you can also purchase from Ann's Paper Art Webshop , I added some green gems and some roses which I have inked  to add a little colour to them.

A Splash of Gold

I have to say, this was a first for me, I went to Alexandra Palace to the BIG STAMP AND SCRAPBOOKING SHOW this month, and I bought some Masks and Sparkle Medium, I was so impressed with what I saw, I just had to try this out for myself, but I still like to add my embroidery stitching patterns, so I chose one of Ann's paper Art Patterns, No a449 and had to adjust the size a little to fit, the Mask that I have used is a Stamposaurus one, I have done this on a Blue card stock, then stitched the pattern in a gold sparkly thread adding Matt Gold rice beads, I mounted it onto Gold Mirri card, then used a Blue card stock the same as I stitched onto,  then I added a  Gol Glittered Martha Stewart Butterfly to the centre, I love the finish of this card, and will definitely use the Sparkle Medium again. I have entered it into the Contest for the Month on Ann's Paper Art Forum

Birthday Card

I absolutely loved stitching this pattern, it is Ann's Paper Art pattern No a645, I stitched it in a Blue and Silver thread on white linen cardstock, then I Die cut the corners with a  Nellie Snellen  Multi Frame Die, No MFD027 2 Corners-1, the Butterfly was Die Cut from a Die that I borrowed from a friend, it's so beautiful, I used a silver and blue paper to cut the butterfly, the back of the butterfly is die cut with a silver paper, I added a few light blue gems to the pattern to finish it, I hope you all like it.

Card for a Man

This card I have made for a male birthday, I used Ann's Paper Art Pattern No a0279, and coloured the beer mug with watercolour pencils, I really like this pattern, it's easy to stitch, the backing paper is from a paper pad by the Paper Cellar.
