Birthday Card

Hi,
This is a birthday card I made for my sister in law Dee,   she likes Art Deco so I made her this card,  I hope it arrives in time for her birthday.
I used Art Deco Timeless Keepsakes CD,  for the image and the backing paper,    I matted the images onto pink miri card and the smaller images I raised up on pads to give the images a little depth.  I added a ribbon down the side.

CD Sunday Challenge - Up up & Away

Hi,
Time for another challenge from the CD Sunday Challenge blog,  this time it was Carol who choose Up Up and Away.
I did like making this card for the background I use the CD Klever Konstruction - on the shelf once in a lifetime volume one,   by the time I put the image on I lost a bit of the clouds but they are there sky with clouds.
The image I stitched in various colours,  I got the image from Pinterest,  which I used a fancy pair of scissors to cut around and matted on a miri card.  I finished off the card with peel offs lines around,  its ages since I did any stitching I really enjoyed it,  I think I must do some more stitching.
A simple CAS card for a change.

The Squares have arrived

Hi,

This is a picture of the squares taken by Canarithy on Facebook to say that the squares had arrived,  she has put pictures of all the squares as they arrived from around the world,   the last count I saw was tatters from 26 countries had sent squares.   I am like everyone else we look forward to bearing and seeing more about the monument that is to be covered.

Rejected card

Hi,

This is my rejected card, I made it and then rejected it,  it was originally for the CD Sunday challenge Winter in the Mountains,   but I felt it was not good enough so I did another card which you saw a couple of weeks ago.

For this card I used American Frontier CD by Joanna Sheen,   for the background and image I die cut the trees and then layered them on the side.,

We all have cards we make and are not happy with for the purpose but its now going to be a christmas card,   I wont be discarding it perhaps I was being hard on myself with not liking it.

If you have missed any comments on your blog recently I am sorry I have not been too good with the fibromalgia and pain in my shoulder blade,  I hope to catch up soon.

Have a good day,

                                 Hugs

CD Sunday Challenge - Vintage Love

 Hi,
Time for another challenge at the CD Sunday Challenge blog,  this time its Jocelyn's choice and she choose Vintage Love.
 For this challenge I used Downton Abby No 1  for the image and backing papers,  I matted the image onto a paper doily which was free with magazine some time ago, added two heart shape pearl gems also free with a magazine no idea which one which, I found them in my stash,
The die at the sides is a fancy edger die called Ornate from Printable Heaven which I brought before christmas,  I cut the sides and them cut the piece of card on the back of the card so it was see though and showing the die more.
I added a small spray of ribbon roses,   I wanted to keep the spray small as its only a small card.
