Molly Bloom Camper Van - Birthday Card

Here is a Molly Bloom Camper Van card which I made recently for a friends birthday.

The image is coloured in using Promarkers and Marvy Le Plume alcohol pens and glossy accents added to the windscreen, headlights and side windows to make them look like glass.

The backings papers are part of a huge DCWV set I have.  Sorry it doesn't have a name on it.  It came in a set of drawers from QVC years ago,

This is all mounted onto a some blue bazzill card with a bit of plain satin ribbon down the edge.

As it is a boy card, didn't want to add anymore embellishments.

LOTV Emma Pot Plant Birthday Card


Here is a lovely pink and brown card I made for my Grandma.

The main image is a LOTV stamp called Emma's Pot Plant, which was coloured in using Promarkers and Marvy Le Plume alcohol pens.  A smattering of glitter was added with Stickles.

I then used the LOTV sentiment stamps and a scalloped circle to back it onto.

I mounted all the above onto some HOTP Disney Princess papers and punched out some flowers to add definition, with a little pearl in the middle of them.

Very plain and simple card.

Here is a card I made at the recent show in Harrogate when my Mum and I went to one of the Craftwork Cards classes.

All the products can be purchased from Wins at Foilplay.

LOTV Christmas Dance Card

Here are a couple of similar cards I made earlier in the week when my friends and I had a Christmas crafting day.  Unfortunately I only managed to make 2 cards, they made 8 cards and a whole heap of tags, what was I playing at!!

Anyway the stamp is the LOTV Christmas Dance which has been colouredi n Promarkers and Marvy Le Plume and then the background paper is a My Minds Eye.  I have then used the deep snowflake punch border from Martha Stewart to finish the background and, really hard to see, but the LOTV Christmas Sentiment.

Wonders of Christmas - Goat Christmas Card

Here is another Christmas Card, again from the Dawn Bibby Kanban range, called Wonders of Christmas.  You can find some of this range here or Wins often has similar things at Foilplay.

This is mounted onto some spotty glitter card and some little corners that came on the topper sheet.  Along with a co-ordinating tag.  A ribbon bow with diamante in the middle finishes it off.

A very simple and quick card, but so fun to make, especially when you know how many cards you need for Christmas

Pink Rocking Horse - Baby Girl Card

Here is a lovely digi image I downloaded from a fantastic blog Beccy's Place  Well worth a visit.  Beccy has some amazing designs, card samples, card templates, etc etc.

The actual digi sample is here Rocking Horse Rocker Card

I have made a few similar to these, which I will put on here over the coming weeks.  I sat and made 4 new baby cards covering girls and boys.

The background paper is a lovely 6x6 Magnolia butterfly paper that I bought.  Should have bought 2 as 1 6x6  sheet just isn't enough to really do a card justice.

The sentiment is a good old LOTV one.  Where would we be without these.  A lovely thick velvet ribbon knotted in the corner just finishes it.  I just couldn't manage to do a bow with this ribbon, so a knot would have to do.

Molly Bloom Camper Van - Birthday Card


Here is today's offering.

The card is made from some really nice Bazzill Basics blue card and then layered up with DCWV papers and another piece of Bazzill, punched with an X Cut doilies punch.

The coloured image is a Molly Bloom and is the small Camper Van image which is coloured in using Promarkers and Marvy Le Plume alcohol pens.

I adore this stamp and find it so useful for all men cards - from small boys to the older gentleman.

Wonders of Christmas - Doggie Christmas Cards

Today's cards are a cute pair of Christmas cards using Dawn Bibby's own design, Wonders of Christmas, I think, was the name of the set.    This is using the toppers, sentiments and backing card from the set.  The only addition I made to it was a couple of pieces of ribbon from a Cosmo Cricket set that I had.

Similar toppers can be found on the Foilplay site, which is brilliant and postage is really quick and free for orders of £5.

LOTV Bear and Butterflies - Happy Birthday Card

Today's card is a LOTV Bear and Butterflies stamp which is called in with Promarkers and then some stickles added to the butterflies.

I layered this up onto some My Minds Eye papers, including a cute border.

The sentiment was a LOTV Happy Circular Sentiments stamped onto the same My Minds Eye papers.

I didn't put any ribbon or gems on this card as I am planning on using it to give to a boy.

Magnolia Edwin and Tilda Skating - Christmas Card


Here is another Christmas card.  This is the Edwin and Tilda skating couple again from Magnolia.  This time I have gone for a blue/brown colour combination to make a change from the traditional Christmas colours.  As always it is coloured in Promarkers and Marvy Le Plume alcohol pens.

The papers are My Minds Eye as are the swirly embellishments and the sentiment is from Craftwork Cards, coloured over top with Promarkers.
