From All of Us




I started today by die cutting all the elements for my card.
I used MFT Blueprints 13 and 25, Pierced Circles and 
Fresh Cut Flowers.  I then stamped and heat embossed the Lawn
Fawn sentiment.  the background wood effect was an Impression 
Obsession stamp.  I affixed all the layers at varying height using foam tape
and glue.
I stamped another Lawn Fawn sentiment on the inside and added another 
flower.

Watercolour Birthday Card



This is the first card I have made in months.  My wildly fluctuating
health problems enforced a break.

I kept it simple with just a few elements but was quite pleased with it.

I used 3 distress inks to create the background and then die cut the 
happy word.  I added gold embossing powder to the die cut and adhered
with a foam layer for dimension.  A scattering of sequins
 and the front was finished.

On the inside i stamped another sentiment and added some stars which
 were die cut from the leftover piece of watercolouring.
