Dear Friend


Another LOTV image for this card. combined with a gorgeous embossed background.  The embossing folder I used  retired quite a few years ago.
I don't know, why I don't use this folder more often, it's a lovely design. 
      The only thing that irritates me about this card is the  "dear" doesn't start with a capital letter.

punch art owl card

I think this guy is kind of cute.
He was created using the owl punch and the scallop circle punch for the wings.
I daubed the edges  with chocolate chip ink and then put the owl together. 
I added the leaves and  a flower.
The bark effect was created , by inking up the inside of a bark embossing folder  with a darker ink than my card stock and running it through my Bigshot. This  gives the bark slightly more definition.

Scalloped card for an lady

Below I have posted a couple of  the cards for kids, So I thought I had better do one for a lady and here it is. the spotted background paper was created by inking the inside of my embossing folder and then running it through the bigshot. It's a great effect. I love polka dots. The rose I bought  craft a local craft shop. it was white when I purchased it, I change the colour using the bashful blue stamp and write marker pen from S.U.

Embossed frame card

This was a quick little card to make Just punching an oval of the paisley petals designer paper and sticking it in the centre of the embossed card.
The embossing was done with  a new mini embossing folder from S.U. there are two different folders in the pack.
The finished card is only 3" X 3" I have made more of this style of  card and i will be posting them a little later. I don't have the time right now, I am just about to go out to dinner. We haven't been out anywhere for so long  I have forgotten how to walk in heels. So I am now off to practise walking  in my heels before we  go out.

Sue s retirement card and envelope




Only two Stampin' up products in this one. The water colour vine stampin' round wheel used with the preety in pink ink cartridge.
I used Cuttlebug's swiss dots embossing folder and embossed two peices of white card for the third layer and another piece for the fifth layer.
I used a circle punch to snip off the corners. Quick tip here...... if you want to layer and cut the corners as I have here... Cut your card to the required sizes.Then match up the two layers in one corner only and punch both layers together. Match up the other corners one at a time
and snip them off in the same way. When you have snipped off all the corners you can then stick your top layer in the centre and all four of your corners should be even.
( Just remember not to turn either piece of your card round )
For my greeting I printed it off and then hot foiled it in pink toner foil.
You could stamp your greeting and emboss it for a similar effect if you don't have equipment for hot foiling.
